How to check the compatibility of graphics cards from my computer

The name of my computer model is

HP Pavilion Elite HPE

motherborad: bk170aa-aba hpe-210y

Processor: AMD Athlon (TM) II X 4 945 processor, 3000 Mhz, 4 logical processor core

Graphics card: ATI RAdeon HD 5450

I bought this desktop computer for 5 years and my graphics card had begun to wear off.

So I did some research on what graphics card can handle my office, but it was very difficult

Some say that if the PS is high, the computer can use anything but the size of the graphics card care

and some say that just buy a x 270, but I don't know what my PS is for the computer and I don't know if my computer can use the full potential of the graphics card.

So, how really to check that my motherboard can handle for graphics cards?

WandaiWrection,

You kidding me? The power supply for this unit is 5188-2625, by HPPartsSurfer.

    Extension that contains a binary code must be compiled for each new version of Firefox. These modules are usually installed by applications on security Norton, McAfee, ZoneAlarm, etc..

  • [p7-1240] How can I find out what graphics cards will work with my motherboard?

    I recently went through the nightmare of trying to install a Gigabyte GTX 650 in my PC. After a few days of struggle and scouring the internet for answers, I discovered that it is not compatible with the BIOS on my motherboard, and HP does not update the BIOS. I returned the card and is now seeking a new, but I'm not sure what card works now, since my computer meet the requirements of system for the graphics card and it stil ldid does not work. Because the GPU manufacturers do not list the specifications of the BIOS under system requirements, how can I know if a graphics card will work with my system?

    My computer is a p7-1240 with a 520W PSU upgrade and approximeately 11 "of space to install the card.

    Thexn, welcome to the forum.

    The problem is a lot of video cards latest require the computer to have a complete UEFI BIOS.  HP began using one in mid-October 2012.  Before that date, the BIOS is the legacy.  This is why the video card does not work with your computer.

    I don't know what you would spend on a card, but MSI is a GTX 750ti which is a VBIOS hybrid.  It has a switch to change to inheritance or UEFI.  Is there a video link directly below the image of a card.  Paul of Newegg gives a complete description of the map.

    I like the best EVGA cards.  Their Support gave me a lot of information on their cards.  However, you will need to return to a GT 640 map to find one of their cards that does not require the UEFI BIOS.  They have a few updates for their BIOS' are which solves the problem, but we must call them for accurate maps.

    Please click on the Thumbs up button '+' if I helped you and click on "Accept as Solution" If your problem is resolved.

  • How to install radeon hd 4550 graphic card in acer aspire m3470g?

    I got it on my hp.  on the hp I just hooked it up and it worked immediately.  I plugged on sucks it and neither she nor the original integrated

    Radeon hd 6530d worked.  Acer has been of no help.  pull it out and the 6530 d was back to normal.  Maybe the hd4550 would not improve performance anyway?  If this isn't the case, I don't want to waste any more time with it.  can anyone answer

    1. graphic performance will improve with the 4550?

    2. If Yes, how should I complete the installation?

    Allan

    Have you plugged the power cable from pci-e card?

    The HD4550 is a low end card, but it can give better performance than the
    AMD integrated graphics card. In part because he has dedicated memory (VRAM).
    The 512 MB model would be more likely to have better performance than the
    256MB model.

    You must install the drivers for the HD4550. Download them the site of ATI/AMD.

    Download page for driver Win7 64 bit

    MFG such as Acer, HP, DELL, etc often use their own drivers, and if they do not have
    provide your machine with this card, they wouldn't be worth making the drivers for it.
    If the ATI/AMD drivers do not help so maybe not that you can do.

    BTW - you also need a power supply with 300-350W to run this card.

  • Satellite A200 - how to check the temperature of the processor fan?

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite A200 that my teenagers use a little, or abuse a little! Recently, it would not start up. I suspect the fan and pulled out the fan cleaned and tested the fan on a PSU, worked out well. He put it back together, ran startup repair and now the computer is operating normally. The fan is however not appear to come at all. In the Device Manager it tells me it works very well. I'm all good with the mechanical side of the House, but I'm a quamby operating system! How to check the temp CPU or fan?

    Thought that replace the fan but don't want to go that far just to get no results. Currently using the vacuum on low like an external fan and didn't want to just run the laptop with no cooling for fear of permanent damage. Although children watch movies with her on their doona may have already reached this!

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Hey mate,

    How to clean the fan exactly? It s advisable to use the jet of compressed air. This could blow the dust of fans cooling and, therefore, it of not necessary to disassemble the laptop.

    In addition if the fan doesn't work anymore it of necessary to replace. You can order spare parts at an authorized service provider.
