• HP Pavilion 500-311no: the hp Pavilion 500-311no upgrade

  Hp Pavilion 500-311no desktop PC, I bought a few years ago and now I feel like I would get some more power out of it then is it possible to upgrade this computer. I use mostly this pc for a game so what I'm looking to upgrade is the gpu. It seems that the motherboard supports the latest grphics cards and I think they should also fit the case. Incase of replacement parts, the power supply needs to be replaced probably as well. Also overclocking motherboard support and how the overclocking and replacement parts affect warranty?

  Greetings,

  You have some positives on your side:

  PCIe available x 16 slot 3.0.

  UEFI BIOS.

  Your chassis will limit the duration of the update of the graphics card.

  You have only a 300 Watt power supply.

  Most of the HP motherboards cannot be overclocked. I have a processor Intel 4820 K. HP offers limited overclocking abilities with this processor.

  Check the measurements on the existing power supply.  A diet of 600 runs most new graphics cards high-end. NVIDIA cards tend to require less energy than equivalent AMD cards.

  Check the height of the rear panel input/output where the x 16 slot is to determine the maximum length of a new card.

  Shop for a new card graphics and power supply when you know your limits. The high-end cards are usually double slot. Make sure you have room to install a card double slot. You need to be able to burst a second plate of input/output rear panel to install a dual slot graphics card.

  Modular power supplies reduce tangles of cables in the chassis.

  See you soon!

• Office Pavilion 500-281: upgrade of processor and graphics HP Pavilion 500-281

  I just bought this HP Pavilion 500-282 3/15/15.  I would like to upgrade from the intel hd graphics card 4400.  Also, I would say to install the I3 I5 4130.   How hard would that be? I upgrade the BIOS?  The power supply is 300 Watts.

  Thanks for any help you can give me.

  [Personal information]

  HERE IS THE SPEC PAGE for this unit.  It lists the processors i5 which will work with the motherboard, just scroll down.

  The intel hd graphics card 4400 is part of the processor but will be promoted to the Intel HD Graphics 4600 (GT2) with any of the i5 processors listed.  If more than one upgrade is necessary, you should know that food can be a problem and the graphical upgrade with Intel onboard graphics is somewhat a problem, too.  Be very sure, through research, that works in the motherboard video card to the study.

• HP Pavilion 500-326na: upgrade of power supply for HP Pavilion 500-326na

  Last year, I bought a HP Pavilion 500-326na. I now want to update its graphics and to do this, I need to power level. I want to upgrade to a CX500, but the specs say that his current power is "external". I don't know what this means, and indeed, I don't know if I will be able to upgrade. I see no reason why I shouldn't be, but everything I've seen only offers assistance on internal types.

  Thanks for any help.

  Hello

  Look at the power supply cord.  If you have a device of black brick similar to those for portable computers, then you have an external power supply. PC with external cannot be upgraded with the installation of an internal power supply as a Corsair CX500 according to HP internal.

• 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.

  If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

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

  I have a desktop HP Pavilion 500-223w with integrated graphics card intel. I want to install a 3d ready geforce graphics card in the pci expansion slot. How can I disable the integrated video card? I went to the bios Setup, but has not seen something on the video card.

  Hello:

  When you add a video card in this model, the integrated graphics card is automatically disabled as it is on most of today's desktop PCs.

  If your PC came with the factory W10, you need to change two other BIOS settings.

  See this guide for what settings change... This applies to every PC comes with Windows 8 or newer installed.

• HP Pavilion 500-214: upgrade HP Pavilion 500-214 Office for games

  Hello

  Thanks for the reading/helping first. So, I want to upgrade my home pc to do some games. Games I want to play are the parameters of quality, World of Tanks with stuff on HD and Skyrim high/Ultra Total War Attila. In General, I want to run these games at 35 + FPS with graphics turned up a little. PC specifications are here.

  Right now the integrated card just works to run in min settings for these games. I want to upgrade this pc if I can instead of going out of my way to build a new one from scratch. I bought this PC for school a few years back, want to keep around him.

  I looked in some graphics cards to upgrade the PC but I'm not sure what power supply I would need to buy to replace the old 300 Watt one. Here are some graphics cards I did research and plans. Could you tell me if the graphics card space, what a good diet would be (should be), and if I need all the things more (like cable).

  I don't expect expirence game extremely high-end, but I know not what graphics card to buy will be much better then the one built-in. I have a budget of $300.

  GTX 750 Ti

  Here

  Read a lot of good reviews on this little guy. I know his date but I read that it goes well with home systems like that because of his use of low power. I'm lead to believe that I wouldn't need to touch the PSU at all. It also probably would be. It is also more affordable and does not need $ 300 budget. However, I don't think he'd go Attila to quality with 35 + fps.

  EVGA GTX 960 + Rosewill Valens 500W

  GC: here

  PSU: here

  This seems to be a great leap forward of the GTX 750 Ti and its certainly within my budget. Research says that it would take around 400W PSU to run, so upgrade is necessary here. These PSU and GC will be in my system? Let me know please.

  XFX R9 280 X + XFX Core Edition PRO850W

  GC: here

  PSU: here

  This combo is probably the best that I can afford right now. Research, the 280 X should easily meet my graphic needs. However, energy consumption is larger then the other two. People have recommended a 500W one, but the specifications of State a 850W recommended. Which is correct? These PSU and GC will be in my system? Let me know please.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.

  Hello

  first of all, on the 750ti, it's a beast (by my definition)... ive played witcher 3 and ca unit maximum heating 35 + fps with it... enough said...

  and since you say you don't need a "game of very high-end expirence", it would be pretty stupid move on foregoing the 750ti... (and yes it's not dated... it was only released last year)

  as for the PSU, don't look beyond a corsair or antec... a Corsair 650 w modular is my recommendation, complete and final...

  Ive told people for the last 5 years, to avoid amd... it produces much more heat and consumes much more power than their counterparts nvidia... unless you have a master very ventilated cooler or zebronics case and are willing to pay a salty electricity bill, avoid the 280 x.. He 960 is better than that

  don't worry about the establishment... the 750ti is a map of 5.7 inches (unless you go for the MSI TF one)... so its nice little... the other two are 10 inches + (unless you get a small form factor 960)...

  what I see, you don't need something more than the 750ti... If you want more power then the 960... but please avoid the 280 x.. Hat you'll now cost you'll eventually spend (more) on the invoices, purchase thermal pasta, and whatnot...

  (PS-atilla is a badly optimized game... even an sli 980 struggled to run on ultra... so don't think you will get ultra with what you listed... but a ti 750 will be good in high twisted)

  Hope this helps

  Hello

  Review the processors that are updated approved for HP 500-270.

  I suggest that you consider using a discrete graphics card before the upgrade of the processor.

  Consult this publication of the article.

• HP Pavilion dv7-4150er upgrade complete. Issue of processor and HARD drive

  Hello. Sorry for my English. I'm from the Ukraine.

  I want to improve my HP Pavilion dv7-4150er and I need advice from experienced people.

  Now, I have:

  -8 GB of RAM (2 x 4 GB),

  -1 TB of HDD (5400 RPM)

  -stock video (Mobility Radeon hd 5650 graphics card) card overclocked to 700 MHz GPU and 950 MHz Vram.

  -CPU (mobile Quad Core Intel Core i7-720QM, 1716 MHz) in stock

  -BIOS F.29

  2 problems:

  -Slow CPU

  -Slow HARD drive

  I want to buy a few HARD drives SSD for Windows and secondary soft and left for the data.

  Get an increase in the performance of the system?

  On the 'Intel' site, I read that my

  Intel® HM55 Express Chipset Mobile

  is compatible with the more powerful processors. LINK

  And I have a great opportunity to buy Intel® Core™ i7-940XM processor Extreme Edition (8 M Cache, 2.13 GHz)

  But the laptop manual says:

  720QM and 940xm - identical processors. The difference in 'MAX TDP' 45w/55w, 'Cache' 6 mb / 8 mb and clock speed 1.6 GHz/2.13 GHz

  The Intel® Core™ i7-940XM processor Extreme Edition (8 M Cache, 2.13) will work properly in my laptop?

  or not?

  I have read many articles on this topic, but the answer is not...

  And I can't find information on HP F.29 BIOS specification.

  How can I increase a CPU nested way (with another compatible processor) perfomance if 940xm is not compatible?

  Help me please.

  Thank you for your time.

  Hello nickiblackmore.  I understand that you are curious about the upgrade of your laptop.

  Here is a link to Guide of Service and Maintenance of your laptop.  It covers the disassembly of the laptop and can also show you how to replace parts if you upgrade the.

  If you switch to a Solid State Drive of a standard 5400 or 7200 RPM hard drive, you should see a significant performance increase.  This is because a normal hard drive spinning platters and it takes time to locate data on the trays as they are moving.  A Solid State Drive has no moving parts and therefor can locate data much more quickly.

  A CPU upgrade is a much more difficult question.  HP does not recommend that you perform this type of upgrade.  Laptops are generally designed with specific thermal and electrical needs.  If you change the CPU, it will probably create more heat and use a higher power that will cause you problems.  However, if you stick to a processor that is listed in the service (for example in your picture) Guide, you should be fine.  For example, you can choose one of the microprocessors found in the image to upgrade your laptop.  Also, keep in mind that the integral part upgrade as a CPU can affect your warranty (check your warranty here).

  If you think that answers your question be sure to mark the post as solved.  This makes it easier for others to find answers to their questions.

• HP Pavilion p7-1254: upgrade to the best possible processor for my motherboard

  Hello, I so had a question about upgrading my processor. I looked at the HP site on my motherboard and I saw all the processors possible it could support. However, I just had a question for whether or not he could support this specific CPU, even if it is NOT on the list:

  AMD A8 - 3870K APU with AMD Radeon 6550 HD Graphics unlocked 3.0GHz Socket FM1 100W processor Quad-Core - retail - AD3870WNGXBOX

  At the moment my processor is: AMD A6 - 3620 APU with graphics Radeon (TM) HD (4 CPUs), ~2.2GHz

  If the motherboard can support a 8 A 3850 APU, I think that the A-8 3870 K wouldn't be too far, but still, I'm not sure that's why I'm here. If there are better options than the image AMD Llano A8-3850, please share with me and let me know!

  Thank you very much for your answers!

  You must take the manual at face value. Other processors not listed may work, but it is at your own risk. I would setup just high processor you are sure will work. The A8-3850 will be a vast improvement on the A6. The A8 - 3870K would be faster,.1 right ghz... 2.9 vs 3.0 ghz?

• HP Pavilion 500-326na: graphics upgrade on HP Pavilion 500-326na card

  Last year, I bought a HP Pavilion 500-326na, and recently, I decided that I would update the graphics card. The card that I'm looking is the nVidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti. This would be consistent with (and in the form of) my computer? In addition, I'm not sure exactly how I had to upgrade my power supply, if necessary, and if you can direct me to a decent choice.

  Thank you very much.

  SJ642, welcome to the forum.

  According to the Specifications of the product , the computer has an external power supply 180W (PSU).  If this is the case, you won't be able to level the video card.  The 750ti requires a power supply of at least 300 w; Some reported that 400W is needed to make it work properly.

• Desktop HP Pavilion 500-342nem: can I upgrade my desktop computer hp pavilion 500 with the graphics card AMD RX 480 replacing edge R7

  I plan to upgrade my hp pavilion 500-342nem, who was already A7 graphical 240 with the new 480 RX.

  Is it possible to upgrade both the power supply and graphics card?

  There will be no problem of compatibility (PSU Corsair CX 500 questioned?.)

  I heard a lot of chatter on hp restricting the upgrade of their pc.

  The new card will work?

  Any help will be apppreciated.

  @Jeffrin98, welcome to the forum.

  I cannot find the specs of the product to the computer.  So, here's what you need to do.  Press Start + R from the view of the office.  This will open a run dialog box.  In the box labeled type msinfo32 opened.  In the page that opens, check the option titled Mode BIOS.  If he says UEFI motherboard is supported by the video card.  If this isn't the case, you will not be able to move forward.

  The next step is to measure the space where the card will be installed to ensure that it fits.  Measure from the back i/o port to the front of the case.  This will allow you to see if other ingredients will limit the installation.

  The CX500 Corsair power supply (PSU) should work.  However, check how much power requires the video card.  It may be better to buy a PSU with 600W.  High power will be used during peak power needs.  In addition, the card may require additional power connectors.  Also, I recommend a modular power supply.  It allows you to use only the cables that are absolutely necessary, create better air circulation.  It is very important with more powerful graphics cards.  The heat can be much larger.
