HP Envy H8 - 1540t - graphics cards double, Pcie 3.0 support

I have 2 questions about the use of dual graphics cards and Pcie 3.0 support in my machine.

The machine is:

HP Envy H8 - 1540t

Win 8 64

I7-3820 2nd generation

10 GB OF DDR3 1600 MEMORY

256 GB SSD

1 TB SATA hard drive 7200 RPM

Blu - Ray player

TV tuner

Prem N - Wireless Lan and Bluetooth 2 x 2

600 Watt PSU

NVidia GTX 660

This machine uses the card mother Pegatron IPIWB-PB and has 2 Pcie x 16 slots. I realize that using the width double GPUS like GTX 660, the small Pcie connectors next to them will be buried, rendering it useless. They are so my 2 questions;

1.) Will 2 Nvidia GTX GPU 660 is in good physical shape within the machine and be supported?

2.) this motherboard with a Intel X 79 chipset does support Pcie 3.0?

Thank you

Hello

You can find information on the following OFFICIAL link, it seems that it only supports PCIe Gen 2.0

http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03132964#n241

The image of the motherboard (see above) and the following picture of the 660 GTX, simple answer: 2 cards will not be in good physical shape.

  • 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.

  • HP Envy 700-414: HP Envy 414 700 graphics card update?

    Hello, I just bought a HP Envy 700-414. It currently has an Intel HD Graphic 4600. I have a card Nvidia 9600 GT PCI Express. This system will promote the card. Not knowing that a lot of graphics cards is a worthy upgrade. I'm not much more than a player, but I do play some RPG occasionally. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Mack

    Hello

    The NVIDIA 9600, I've just looked at requires an auxiliary PCI-E 6 pin.  If the 9600 GT from NVIDIA that you require such a connector, then it will not work on your PC, unless you change to food.  In addition, the 9600 GT does not support DirectX 11, which is used with the recent PC games.

  • XPS 435 t - graphics card double slot?

    I guess we can integrate a video card double slot the existing PCI-Express 2.0 16 slot. I do not if I hide the adjacent PCI 1 slot because it is empty.

    If dual slot graphics cards stack up?

    It's absolutely, positively FALSE.

    Why say that?

    The Studio XPS 435 / 9000 video slots has full size. Total and 6 locations.

    A range of maps of graphics ATI including the Radeon HD3450, HD3650 HD4670, of the HD4850 and HD4870

    The map in the image below is a DOUBLE WIDE 4870.

    I recommend the upgrade of a corsair CS750M power supply if you plan to use a map of hunger of power such as Geforce 960 because the 475W stock power is a bit too small IMHO.  I had an EVGA GeForce GTX 960 SuperSC ACX 2.0 + 2 GB memory GDDR5 128 bit, 02 G-P4-2966-KR to work with the power supply but I was not comfortable leaving in this way.

    The Studio XPS 435 t uses 1333 MHz DDR3 non - ECC and non - ECC DDR3 1066 MHz.

  • Graphics card double output for the motorway A58

    Hi guys,.

    Work just gave me a Lenovo A58 SFF and while I don't have the serial number, I don't know what follows-

    Lenovo ThinkCentre A58
    Small form factor
    Intel CORE 2 QUAD Q8400
    4 GB OF RAM
    Hard drive 320 GB

    The machine is used only for work (spreadsheet, processing and internet) and I would like to run two monitors (both with VGA, PCI and HDMI inputs), but Lenovo A58 LTS offers only one VGA output.

    I did a quick search for graphics in this forum, but suggestions seem to be a little out of date as the machine is a bit long in the tooth now.

    As I work for a small business, we do not have a 'IT Department', so it is left up to me to sort.

    If you could please provide me with some options, it would be much appreciated.

    Thank you

    Chris.

    (1) the onboard graphics on the A58 can support 2 monitors. The card is in fact the second connector for the integrated graphics card.

    (2) limitation is that to do with graphics performance, you can not play on it. But Office apps will work fine. normal movies will work as well.

    (3) it's a true second monitor, you can expand the view to make both monitors independently managed.

  • Graphics card double output

    I was wondering if there is a video card capable of dual monitor to my HP Pavilion Slimline s5713w desktop PC, Windows 7 64 bit? Also, it will require a bigger PSU, if this slim case will fit it? any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

    Any PCIe x 16' low - profile' or "low - profile ready" graphics card must fit into your computer. Almost all retail graphics cards require a minimum of 300 watt system power. Power on a HP Slimline computer are not your standard ATX used in most full desktop computers. Based on the physical size of your computer's power supply, AthenaPower.com should have a solution from 300 to 450 watt for your computer. Good luck.

  • HP Envy 700-311: graphics card

    Quick Queistion, what graphics card should I buy that can fit in my pc and what is recommended I should use for this pc for games. I found some online, but I'm not sure if they fit into the pc and/or need any additional power ports, and another question is what food I buy also because some cards need a graphis amount required power I have 300w and I want more but I'm not sure if it would fit in the pc or if it would have any cables that has my current btw I do not really have a budget, but having said that I don't have the best thing out there, thank you

    You are welcome.

    My goal was to give you the best possible performance that won't break the Bank!  Here's a better mapwhich can be a bit too long for the space provided.  It's always a matter of concern.  I suggest to contact EVGA Tech Support (1-888-881-3842) to help choose the best card for your computer.  They are the experts on their products and are extremely useful.  You can tell them that a member of the HP Forums suggested that you communicate with them.

  • graphics cards double Office HP 500 - 205-t

    I have a HP 500 - 205t with which I ordered an upgrade the dedicated video card.  The computer is around the age of six months. Now I find that I need two monitors. The dedicated adapter has only a single output. The integrated one has two. Is it possible to use two adapters at the same time? I hate wasting the adapter 'improved '. And, if possible, can I use three monitors? Thank you. Richard

    Well, it seems that my memory is not as good as it once was. I did remove the graphics - NVIDIA GT 625 - upgrade by uninstalling the driver and then stop the machine. Not connected all the cables from the rear and he hoisted upward on a desk to disassemble. Imagine my surprise when I finally turned it around to discover that, in low-and-behold, the adapter has two ports!

    Somehow, I never noticed (or simply forgotten) that there's also an HDMI port and more the DVI - D port. A quick check in the console of NVIDiA confirmed he would go to two monitors.

    Lesson learned, for the umpteenth time. Always check things in multiple ways before giving up.

    So the answer is: NO, you can't use both cards. BUT, you can always run two monitors with NVIDIA graphic card to the address being upgraded.

  • HP ENVY h8 - 1427 graphics card has

    Hello. I use this graphics card currently on this exact system: http://tinyurl.com/m2mvbq8

    The fan on the card spins constantly and loudly and that all cleaning and fixing attempts have failed. Could anyone recommend a replacement of the graphics card that I can't to find one similar to the one currently installed. Research for NVIDIA GeForce GT630 seem to flip graphics cards that look like the one I have. I am in Australia and running Windows 8.1.

    Thank you

  • Ray-tracing on GPU disabled on MacBook Pro with a graphics card double

    Hi all,

    I just installed the demo version of scars on my new macbook pro 15 ".
    He has these 2 graphics cards:

    • Intel Pro Iris graphics card
    • NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M
      2 GB of GDDR5 memory

    But when I opened After effects CC I get this error:

    Ray-tracing on GPUS requires a map dgraphic approved NVIDIA and CUDA 5.0 or higher. At the moment the ray-tracing will use just the CPU.
    On NVIDIA, I saw that mine is a CUDA GPU: https://developer.nvidia.com/CUDA-GPUs .
    Why I get this error?

    Thank you

    > However, I can install driver CUDA 5.0 + with GT750M and use ray-tracing with GPU on AE (OSX)?

    You can use it, but it was not tested and not supported. You use it at your own risk, with the caveats explained here:

  • 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.
