HP Pavilion H8-1120: Radeon HD 6970 will work with my motherboard?

Hello

I currently have a HP Pavilion desktop computer. The product is H8-1120, with model #QP771AA

My motherboard is Carmel2 (IPISB-CU), with an i7-2600, 350W electric chip and the video card Radeon HD 7570.

I wanted to play some of the newer games on the decent quality (usually, I would need to run on parameters below and even reduce the resolution, just to get 20 + FPS), and so I recently bought a new GTX 750TI graphics card to improve my computer with. But I had the same problem that everyone else did, where their HP Board would not accept the new card and nothing has helped my problem.

Now I'm back TI GTX750 and I am looking for a good upgrade from my current GPU, at a reasonable cost, and I absolutely want to know, 100% that I won't not motherboard compatibility issues with the new gpu.

I was looking at the graphics card Radeon HD 6970 and Radeon HD 6850 cards. Both are a little better than my other current graphics card, and I will also update the food too 550-600W.

No one knows for sure if I'll be able to run the HD 6970 graphics card on my motherboard, with a 600W POWER supply upgrade? I checked online and the Radeon Series 6000 was released to the year 2010, a year before my current BIOS (FRIEND 7.16 / 10/05/2011) was released. My BIOS will be able to work with this graphics card?

Bozhidarc, welcome to the forum.

The reason why GTX 750 it won't work in your computer is to UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS.  HP didn't start using UEFI until mid-October 2012.  I know the last video card that requires no UEFI EVGA's GTX 660.  Anything after this model requires UEFI.  The best thing to do is to find the card you like and contact the Technical Support of the manufacturer to ensure that it will work on your computer.

MSI is a GTX 750 Ti with a BIOS card hybrid switch that allows to work with a standard legacy BIOS or UEFI.  Yet once, however, I recommend to contact MSI to ensure it will work with your computer.  I heard some members who have managed to make it work with the BIOS of their inheritance.

  • [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.

  • Pavilion HPE h8-1207eo: Sapphire R9 380 will work with chicago motherboard?

    Hello

    I'm about to buy a new graphics card for my older Pavilion and I think to buy this R9 380 of Sapphire.

    I heard that people have had problems with the old BIOS from the motherboard in this PC (IPISB-CH2) and I would like to know if the same problems with this graphics card would occur. I think that he has dual bios which (I assume) would make the card compatible with older motherboards. I did all other components work with the card.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

    Hjalpmovie, welcome to the forum.

    If you read the specifications tab in the link you provided, he says to a power supply (PSU) of not less than 500W.  The power supply of your computer is only 460W.  I suggest at least 600W to make sure that you have enough power for the future updates.

    You must also measure the space where the map is to ensure that he will accept a card that is 9.5 "(237,35 mm)."  It is a VBIOS hybrid that allows him to work with a legacy or a UEFI BIOS.  If it were me, I would contact the manufacturer to make sure that it works before you order it.  This will save the shipping charges to return it if it does not work for some reason any.

  • HP Pavilion HPE h8-1214: GPU EVGA GTX 750TI will work with my HPE h8-1214

    Hello. I plan to update my graphics card soon. Accoring to this, I have a card Mother Angelica. I read another post here of a user having a h8-1230 with a card Mother Angelica Revision2 , who said the EVGA GTX 750TI was inconsistent with this Council, and that he should look for a version of the 750TI MSI instead.

    I was wondering if the same applies to my PC because my model is older that the other user has been. I prefer to use the EVGA GPU version, as it is cheaper than the MSI one, but I need to know if it will work with my computer. If not, will the labour card ASUS model, or should it be MSI? The map I intend to buy is present (EVGA) or this (ASUS).

    In addition to this, does anyone know if the stock fans and 300W power supply provided with this computer would be appropriate for the new card, or not? I'm looking forward already pass the power supply, but I don't know for the fans. If I were to upgrade the PSU, 430W would be enough, or should I go with 500W? Thank you.

    If anyone in the future who might wonder, I had this GPU works on my computer, but I had to buy a specific version of the map and the way I got it to work was pretty weird.

    You need to buy this version MSI of the card, because the card itself has a switch on to change the UEFI to Jack supported BIOS Legacy. As far as I know, other versions of this card are UEFI only, and this computer does not support UEFI, so he needs a card that can run in the traditional way. It may look like a fit snug in the case, but it does not seem to cause problems and it cools very well with fans.

    I also changed to a block of power SUPPLY Corsair 430W, which seems more than enough for the system, even with the card to load max. You could go to a higher power, if you consider the upgrade of several pieces, or reuse the power supply in a more powerful system later. I have not upgraded fans in the computer and do not seem to have cooling problems.

    Now to make it work...

    I had some questions:

    When I first turned on the computer, it froze on the screen of the POST (the first screen with the HP logo). It would allow me to get into the BIOS, and it would beep 4 times (with long breaks between the two), before finally to a black screen with a cursor blinking and just stay there.

    What finally got it to work:

    I disconnected all the instructors of the map (cables VGA, DVI or HDMI), and then I turned on the computer. Without any monitor plugged, the computer should beep 6 times (the power button LED flashing with it), then the power led turns off. The LED went off as soon as I plugged my monitor into the computer (in my case, I used a VGA cord).

    For the first few seconds, the screen remained blank and does not save a connection. The computer is beeping intermittently for a while, then after about a minute my detected monitor suddenly a signal, and the screen displays the Windows splash screen. I was able to boot into Windows, all right, even if the resolution of the screen will be a little goofy, until you install the drivers.

    I jumped in the driver installation CD, and once it finished installing, I restarted the computer. Now, when it restarted, I had to do the same procedure I mentioned above so that he could start again. Now that the drivers are installed, I don't know if I'll have to do this procedure everytime I restart the computer (don't have not shut down since then), but since I rarely shut down my computer, it's worth it to me.

    Hope this helps someone else, because I know that I spent 10 hours searching for ideas before discovering this solution myself.

    Now that it is running, I have problems and I have run several graphics intensive games on it without any problem with cooling or power draw. It is very quiet, too. Even with a game running on high quality graphics, I can barely hear the fans when there is no other sound in the room.

    I'm looking to replace my Dell laptop with a 15.6 laptop "series of Inspiron 5000, which has 16 GB RAM 1 TB HD, Intel i7 processor and an AMD Radeon R5 M335 4 GB DDR3 video card.  It is a touch screen with Windows 10.  In talking with Dell technical support, I was told that PhotoShop CS6 FONCTIONNERA NOT with Windows 10 not with the touchscreen even though technology Adobe said it will work with Windows 10 on its "required page.  Dell said that it works with WIndows 7.  I'm confused.  The Adobe forums seem to suggest that Photoshop CS6 will work, so with touch screen and WIndows 10, is there something in the specifications of laptop above Dell that suggests that I'm having a problem?  Will it be buggy?  PhotoShop CS6 will work only with a mouse and not the touch screen?  Is this a problem with the video card? I can't find enough information to feel confident about ordering this Dell laptop forums.  I can go to the 7000 series with a 4 GB NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 960 M graphics, but I'm not a gamer.

  • InDesign CS5 will work with MacOS Sierra?

    Has anyone tried to see if InDesign CS5 will work with MacOS Sierra? I have creative cloud and CS5 on my machine, but due to some of the things that I have to work that only work with CS5 to CS6 I have to keep my old software. I hesitate to upgrade to Sierra until I know if InDesign CS5 will work or not.

    If anyone has tested this, I would be recognizing the return flow, thank you.

    It really depends what you do with it, and a large part of the framework has changes in the operating system for how the application is designed to run in. Your workflow can cause problems when the application works for others or you might be able to use it, but keep in mind has more no support for CS5 Adobe or Apple, so do not expect to solve any problems that you can discover.

  • A Capsule of 1 TB will work with OS 10.11?

    Because I like to keep all my Apple hardware, I was looking at getting a Time Capsule backup to my new iMac comes with OS 10.11 (El Capitan). My question is this - can anyone tell me if an older model of 1 TB (MB277LL/A) will work with my setup?

    Thank you

    Carl

    This model was abandoned more than 7 years ago and is officially classified as "obsolete" by Apple, which means that if you have a problem and are willing to pay, Apple still will not help you with this device.

    Most of the 1st Gen Time Capsules failed in about 18 months. Few make it to 36, and very little done to 60 months, so unless the model you are looking at has a new power supply and new hard drive that was installed in recent years, it would be best to stay away from this model.

    If the product has not been updated with a new power supply and hard drive, it's almost a miracle if it does not work.

    Assuming that really fall into place, you will need to check to make sure that the time Capsule has firmware version 7.6.1 or later version to make it work with your Mac using El Capitan.

    You re right Satellite L500 doesn t have an internal modem, so you need an external.
