HP ENVY 137C 750: GTX 1070 for HP ENVY 750-137C graphics card upgrade

I picked up a refurbished HP ENVY 750-137c and am currently looking to improve the graphics. I don't want to break the Bank, but I don't want it to last me a while, I'm looking at the Nvidia GEFORCE GTX 1070.

Apart from the evolution of the needs of power, does anyone know if this card is compatible, and if there are problems with this upgrade? In addition, Nvidia recommends a diet of 500W for this card. Would be - it sufficient, or is - this genrous number? In addition, if someone has a product of power supply they would recommend for this theoretical combination, I'd greatly appreciate advice.

Thank you!

@Drifterx311, welcome to the forum.

Here are the full specifications of the card on the nVidia website.  The card is double slot and 10.5 "long.  I suggest measurement of the back plate of e/s to the front of the box to see how much space is available.  I think it fits, but it will be tight.

As you said, the specs recommend a PSU 500W (PSU).  Personally, I'd buy one at least 600 w.  This will give you extra power for peak needs.  I love Corsair products.  Here are a few PSU for you to review Newegg.  If you choose a modular power supply it will allow you to install only the cables that are absolutely necessary.  This allows for better air circulation.  The PSU is the backbone of the computer.  Read the reviews to see what users have to say about them.  A good diet will make your system run much better.

    Hello

    Unfortunately, the nvidia gpu is integrated with the system board and is not an evolutionary element.

    Your laptop will support a maximum of 16 GB of ram (2 x 8 GB modules) - you can find an example of an upgrade on the following link.

    Nice day. I hope an expert can help me.

    Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTS 240 single memory 1 GB. Reading, not sold at retail and is now no longer available.

    I do not use the computer to play games.

    For various reasons, you can Please provide DETAILS for me a graphics card in replacement of approximately the same 'power' +. I can myself, slot load driver and be operational. Don't not changing other pieces (I hope) and there seems to be so many available graphics cards.

    Hi Skanter - just saw this message-hope it comes in time

    I had this problem with mine - it was also to achieve 90degC. It is caused by a really poorly designed cooling system - the fins of the radiator are locked behind a metal shield and the fan blows into it.

    What you need to do is: -.

    (1) turn off and unplug everything from the PC

    (2) open the side panel and disconnect the audio cables and power of GPU

    (3) remove the mobo

    (4) with the help of a tiny posidrive screwdriver, unscrew the thin metal cover of heat sink

    (5) use a brush to remove all the dirt you may see! DO NOT BLOW IT OUT WITH YOUR BREATH!

    (6) reassemble and hopefully enjoy the silence!

    If you still get the noise the chances are some dust penetrated fan (this happened to me when I used compressed air to blow the heat sink). Replacement fans are as rare as horse poop to switch I could not even one of the original manufacturer (path to the bottom of the chain - don't expect any help from Dell or nVidia here, I'm afraid) but are thankfully easy to fix.

    GTS 240 fan fix: -.

    I do memory-sorry if I get something slightly wrong!

    (1) remove a map as shown above. Once the radiator fan cover will be exposed.

    (2) very gently, using a pair of small screwdrivers hanging under the blower rotor, gently lift the rotor clear of the case. He doesn't want to go at first, but be patient and try and apply steady pressure on each side.

    3) out of the bearing once clean any muck-it only takes a small amount here because of the noise.

    4) applied with a headset, a tiny (and I mean tiny) bit of WD40 (don't know what this is called in the United States-but it's a wonder spray!) for the bearing

    (5) wipe off - you'll need that the strict residue on the tree

    (6) reassemble and get started!

    If you are worried about prising off the rotor (or indeed I was wrong) you can undo the radiator all of PCB by unscrewing the screws with springs on them - this allows access to the screw bit to hold the fan. Then you can cancel these abd slide the cable out which means that you can clean the bottom - but the rotor must always be removed to lubricate the bearings.

    Good luck

  • HPE - 580 t NVIDIA GTX 750 Ti video card upgrade

    I had a lot of problems with the AMD video card with my HP HPE - 580 t came.

    I think spend my HPE - 580 t to a nVidia GTX750 Ti video card.  I note the GTX 750 Ti is built for the slots PCI-E 3.0 and I think my HPE - 580 t has only slots PCI-E 2.0.

    This new graphics card works in my PC?

    Surfer995, welcome to the forum.

    The GTX 750ti may not work on your computer.  It requires UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS.  If you wanted to buy an EVGA card, you can contact their Technical Support (1-888-881-3842) to see if they have a VBIOS update so that it can work with your motherboard.  This is your best option.  Your power supply (PSU) will be fine.

    I would like to know if I could adapt an Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti graphics (2 GB, GDDR5, PCI-Express 3.0) without any problem? Or is there a better option?

    The current map graphic is a GeForce GTS 240, that it came with.

    I searched the internet to find out that if that would be ok, but became confused if the power supply is sufficient, the appearance of it bed 350w max power. I can't find some people say no and Yes.

    My computer knowledge is Basic.

    Thanks for any help.

    You're better than replace the power supply Dell with a retail food more high wattage. Then the video card will be fine. Read your Manual for instructions.

    JoBla, welcome to the forum.

    It is becoming increasingly difficult to ensure that the latest components will work in an old computer.  Your computer is almost 3 years old.  My suggestion is to choose the SSD and the video card you want to buy and contact the Technical Support of the manufacturer to determine if it will work with your computer.  They are the experts on their products.  This will save you the possibility to pay for the return of one of them.  That's what I did and it works fine.

    I can recommend a PSU 600W (PSU), however.  I love Corsair products.  Here is a very good power supply.  Read the reviews to see what users have to say about it.  There is a modular version of it, too.  The modular power supply is good for medium-sized cases.  It allows you to use only the cables that are absolutely necessary.  Which makes for airflow and better cable management.

  • Want to 750-114: graphics card update

    I had only my HP Envy 750 - 114, less than a week but discovered that the integrated graphics card does not well with my Poser 11 3d modeling software or the online games like Second Life. When I bought the computer, I was told that the graphics card was better than my old HP Envy H8-1534. The graphics were amazing with that. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, or something was not well defined, but I expected better graphics.  I hope I can improve my graphics even if it is integrated. I don't know what I should look or if I can. I'm not very teckie.

    Overall, I love the computer and I'm happy with everything.

    Any help is greatly appreciated and I thank you in advance

    ArcticFire-AK, welcome to the forum.

    I checked the system requirements for the program and the game you mentioned.  It seems that your system should work well with both.  However, integrated graphic card and video isn't always good for the games.  It's more for daily tasks such as navigation.

    You have "1 PCI Express x 16 (Gen 3.0)" slot for a video card.  I love EVGA cards.  Here's a map of willing to work pleasantly in your computer.  Read the reviews to see what users have to say about it.  The State of the plug she needs at least a 300W power supply unit (PSU) to function properly.  However, some members have reported that 400W would be better.  If you don't get this card, I recommend to try it with your PSU existing prior to the upgrade.  If necessary, I would buy one at least 600W and modular.  I love the Corsair PSU.

  • HP Envy 700-074 Graphics Card problem Windows 8

    Greetings,

    I recently bought the HP ENVY 700-074 (http://http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/product?cc=us & dlc = in & lang = to & lc = in & product = 5371495).

    Initial setup went fine without any problem.  I replaced the power supply so that I could add the graphics card from my old computer.  The power supply and graphics card worked perfectly for my old computer.  Feeding is a BFG Tech GX 550 watt modular power supply series.  The graphics card, I have installed is the Nvidia 560ti.

    The problem is that, when I start the computer, my screen goes to sleep (as there is no signal) until the login Windows 8 screen lights up. At this time, my screen lights up and it is normally.  However, if updates or restarts the computer, the screen turns off again and he returned sometimes when loading the desktop computer.  I tried to get into the BIOS to see if I could disable the onboard graphics, but I have been unable to access BIOS because I don't see anything on the screen during startup.  I removed the Nvidia card and returned to the use of the integrated graphics card and everything is back to normal.  I managed to enter the BIOS at the time here, but I don't see any possibility to disable the integrated graphics card or use the PCIe as main display (unless I missed something).

    I also noticed that Windows 8 shows I have 2 screens installed when only 1 is installed physiclaly.  My HP (HP 2009 m) monitor is listed in Monitor 2 and I initially had to go through the windows to get my HP Monitor to display the entire desktop (as it origionally extended from the start, the desktop computer).  However, number of monitor 1 is listed as monitor of generic cards.  Thinking that the computer used the non-existent monitor like main display when starting, I deleted the generic monitor than to have to reinstall windows.  I also tried to disable, but the problem persists.

    I guess that there is a conflict between the integrated graphics card and the Nvidia card.  However, I assumed that the edge will be disabled automatically after inserting a card into the PCIe slot as the integrated graphics card watch is no longer under device mananger.

    Hello:

    Have you changed the settings of the BIOS 2 (required) before installing the video card no HP?

    If this isn't the case, please read the info on the link below.
