Desktop HP Pavilion 500-223w: upgrading my video card

Similar Questions

• HP Pavilion 500-164, upgrade the video card.

  I replaced the power supply in this area for a graphics card into the PCIE slot. I put a Nvidia 9600 GT in the box, not changed no settings, tried to start, and I get no bios and 6 beeps. Any advice?

  Based on specifications, your desktop HP Pavilion 500-164 has been bundled with Windows 8 installed and has a feature called 'Secure Boot'. You must DISABLE "Secure Boot" and ACTIVATE the standby mode 'legacy' in the BIOS before the computer will start with the nVidia 9600 GT installed.

  Please, remove the video card, make changes to the BIOS and turn off the computer. Then, reinstall the video card and turn on the computer. Your problem should be solved.

  Please see Computer Does starts is not after the installation of a videocard (Windows 8) for more information on the subject.

• Pavilion H8 - 1160T: upgrade the video card

  My AMD Radeon graphics card failed (empty 1 screen, 2nd all the vertical lines on the screen) and upgrade to a 900 NVIDIA graphics card.

  As I understand it, my motherboard is a legacy bios and cannot support video cards that need a bios, UEFI (which would include 9XX NVIDIA cards).

  Based on the info below my first question would be... my bios from the motherboard to reset/upgrade of a UEFI bios?

  And second, if not, what would be my best option for a NVIDIA card?  6xx series? (game video and moderate flow)

  Thank you!

  And second, if not, what would be my best option for a NVIDIA card?  6xx series? (game video and moderate flow)  Yes, the latest video cards do not for UEFI were the GTX 660/670.  I suggest that you pick a card mamufacturer and contact their Technical Support for assistance.  MSI has a GTX 750Ti which is equipped with a switch so that it can be used with a Legacy BIOS.  You can check with them to see if will work with your motherboard.

  Marc, welcome to the forum.

  Yes, I think that your motherboard should be compatible with the video card.  The card requires UEFI in the motherboard and your mother should have.  Just be aware that the specifications concerning the State of the map that it requires only a power supply (PSU) with 300W power.  Many members have reported that it is rather 400W.  You can try with the current POWER supply, but if this does not work I suggest one made by Corsair.  I recommend at least 500W.

• I have a HP p6653w desktop computer and you want to upgrade the video card for gaming. What is the best card that my

  I have a HP p6653w desktop computer. Can I upgrade my video card and what is the best card to get to the games?

  mathenson,

  You can update the video, install any PCIEx16 card video and the new PSU (power supply).

  The general answer is based on the games you play. It is best to search for the site of the game, reading the recommended list 'graphics card '. Then add a little more.

  graphics card comparison site. http://www.hwcompare.com/6232/Radeon-HD-5670-vs-Radeon-HD-6950-2GB/

  Each graphics card is then looked up, noting the length of the card connectors (power cards) required recommended PSU.

  Example: XFX HD6950 2 GB:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150530

  (1) two PCIE 6pin power wires

  (2) card 10 "

  (3) min 500W PSU, if you add up.  Your 250W + card + fresh 200W generals = 600W

  630W PSU will fix the wiring and size http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182200

• CARD READER USB FOR DESKTOP HP PAVILION 500 - C60?

  I have a new 500 - C60 HP Pavilion desktop computer, but the front card reader does not accept the largest flash Compact Flash (CF) card.  I have an old USB multi-card with four different card slots, which accepts the card see  Would this setting work satisfactorly?

  Thank you

  Hello @shamrock838,

  I understand that your desktop HP Pavilion 500 - c60 PC does not support the biggest Compact Flash Memory Card and you are curious as to whether or not you can install an USB multicard Reader which accepts the memory card see First of all, you have reason 7 - in1 media card reader did it installed does not supported CF memory card, but it supports the following cards:

  • Digital safe™ (SD)
  • Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC)
  • SDXC
  • Memory Stick
  • Memory Stick Select
  • Memory Stick PRO
  • Memory Stick MagicGate

  I don't see why you can't connect the 4 - in1 USB multicard reader you have. Until the operating system detects and installs, you should be fine.

  I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

• P7-1234 Pavilion: I have a p7-1234 Pavilion and want to upgrade the video card.

  I have a p7-1234 Pavilion and want to upgrade the video card. I am currently the EVGA GeForce GT 610 2048 MB GDDR3. This card will work with it?

  This is a power supply that will work for you:

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16817139048

  It is modular allowing you to use only the necessary cables.  This means that there is more room inside the circulation of air.  He is also a 600W which will give you extra power for the possible future upgrades.  Any block of power SUPPLY Corsair will be good.  They are fans of the quality products for a reasonable price.

• HP 500 - a 201: the video card upgrade

  Hi, I would like to upgrade the video card in this PC HP but I think that there is a limited space.  I think like a 750ti which is the closer the physical map of the factory installed measures.  I would upgrade to a proper diet.

  Thank you

  Brad

  @Cebos, welcome to the forum.

  I believe that this EVGA GTX 750Ti should register in the area without any problem.  If you don't want this card, you can measure from the port of e/s back on the front of the case where the card will be installed to see if another card adapt.  The essence is to ensure there is enough space to provide for good air circulation.

• Upgrade the video card in Pavilion HPE 380t

  Hello

  I want to upgrade the video card in my HPE 380 t, currently it has geforce gtx 260, I want to install a geforce gtx 560 ti or 570.

  I have 2 problems with the viability of this. 1. space. and 2. Food. Has anyone successfully completed a similar upgrade on this system?

  Plug current sys is the following.

  • Intel Core i7 - 930 quad-core [2.8 GHz, 1 MB L2 + 8 MB of cache N3 shared]
  • 12GB DDR3 - 1066 MHz SDRAM [6 DIMMS]
  • 1 TB hard drive 7200 RPM SATA 3 Gb/s of 750Go
  • 1.8 GB NVIDIA Geforce GTX 260 [2 DVI, HDMI and VGA adapters]
  • LightScribe 16 X MAX drive DVD +/-R/RW SuperMulti

  power of 460 wt

  About the food, the psu calculator gives me the following recommendations

  I need my current configuration 529W!

  with a gtx 560 ti , I need 513

  with a gtx 570, I need 577W

  This raises a few questions:

  1. How can my system running on a 460wt power if the power supply calculator recommends 529w (nvidia reccomends a PSU 500w for the gtx 260 which is installed on my machine?)

  2. how the song gtx 560 ti could possibly require less energy than my current gtx 260?

  3. could I move to one of these cards without replacing the power supply? (I'd be willing to lose the dvd/rw drive, this falls 30w)

  4. what someone has updated the PSU in a HPE 380 t? Looks like there is a little extra space, but not much?

  About the video card itself, I am concerned about the space, I looked inside of the case, there is a decent amount of clearance around the gtx 260, but I'd love to hear from someone who has tried to replace this card.

  Specifications for standard cards are:

  gtx 260 courses:

  height: 4,376 inches, length: 10.5 inches, width: double slot

  recommended psu 500w

  GTX 560 ti

  height: 4,376 inches, length: 9 inches, width: double slot

  recommended psu 500w

  GTX 560 ti super clocked

  height: 9.4 inches, length: 11.8 inches, width: double slot

  GTX 570

  height: 4,376 inches, length: 10.5 inches, width: double slot

  recommended psu 550w

  bang for buck the 560 ti superclocked is the best deal, unfortunately they are also the most cumbersome...

  All advice appreciated!

  Hello

  The difference will be the distance between the power supply and the optical bays can be annoying.  Open your PC and do some measure and see if a thumb causes less issues.  Don't forget the extra cable lengths.

  Tip: When you install the new power supply, remove the front cover, lock the optical drive and slide if forward to facilitate the installation of the power supply. Do the PSU upgrade before you get your PC stable before installing new video card.

  These "how-to" HP articles should be useful.

  The OCZ has a bus verses double 12 volts the Corsair with a rail.  There is always a debate about who is best. Both have advantages and disadvantages.  I prefer implementing the only bus.  The really big PSUS, all seem to have several buses. The material of the size of the bus which had to bear the whole of the amperage on a bus would be rather substantial with very large power supplies and there are other reasons.

• Upgrade the video card

  I have a HP Pavilion h9-1187 windows 64 - bit pc with nvidia GeForce GT 530 by default.  I need to upgrade the video card, but this motherboard has only one of pci express 16 3.0 slot.  Almost all decent video cards require two slots.  I guess that most cards except those in the crossfire, two cards together configuration, must the two slots.  Most of the time, I guess the seller asking two slots due to the space.  Remove the CAP from my pc and possibly void the warranty, can someone tell me what video card width this pc may take.   I have the motherboard COMPANY PEGATRON, the default value.  If you care to recommend a video card decent all 250-300us about feel free.  Thank you. Apologies, but as a newbie I also posted this in the hardware section of the bureau of the forum as well.  I'll delete the entry that is in the wrong part of the forum.

  When a card is listed as having "two slots", this means only that he would hold the PCIe x 16 location and regardless of the slot is adjacent. It does not require a connection to more than the PCIe x 16 slot. Looking at the photo below, the long black slit under the "IPMMB-FM" is the PCIe x 16 graphics card slot. "The slot short slot needs to be empty, then the '2 locations' map can adapt it without connection to this.

  

  Almost any card graphics PCIe 2.0, 2.1 or 3.0 will work on your computer. Please look at these PCIe x 16 graphics cards for a selection in your price range. Please see Guide of Dave_G of a discrete video card selection of useful information on the subject.

  I bought a new desktop computer (810-109 Phoenix) and wanted to upgrade the video card. The new video card is a Zotac GTX 660. The thing is that the system does not boot with the new video card. I got continuous beeps from the system. I used 6 PCI-E power connector pins. The power suply is expected to support the video card, as it is listed as 600W and it is the wat recommended for the video card. I am runing Windows 8.1 64bits.

  Help, please.

  Hello:

  When you add a video card no HP in a PC provided with W8/8.1, you will need to change 2 settings of the BIOS before installing the card.

• Advice on upgrading the video card in Studio 540

  I just picked up a used Studio 540 and was looking to upgrade the video card without having to buy a new power supply. I do a few games.  Anyone would be able to advise a good card that works in this machine? My budget is $ 150.  I was leaning towards a Sapphire Radeon 7750 brand or possibly a 7770 like this:

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16814202011

  The specifications are the following:

  Studio 540
  Core 2 Quad Q9400 clocked at 2.6 GHz
  8 GB memory
  Hard drive 500 GB
  power SUPPLY 350 watt PSU
  1680 x 1050 resolution

  Thanks in advance.

  You always have a pretty decent system with Quad CPU and 8 GB of memory.  I love the Sapphire of HD7770 you have connected.  As long as you have the PCIe 6-pin power cable on your 350w unit, you should be fine.  It's going to be the best that you can get without taking account of an upgrade of the power supply.  I say go ahead because the 7750 HD is not that much less and the 7770 HD will be best for the games.
