HP Pavilion Notebook - 15-ab06: updating graphics card?

Hi, I'm practiacally again the hardware upgrade on computers.

I just had a question about how to upgrade the graphics card.

Currently, I have an AMD of A10 image (1.8 to 3.2 GHz) processor with Radeon graphic card and shared memory.

I bought this computer in the hope that I could add a Nvidia Geforce to help with my games and 3d modeling/design.

But recently, I came across another post here with basically the same problem, except that the client had an i3 with graphics card intel shared.  He had the same question as me, but I was told that there is nothing that could be done, because the graphics were integrated into the CPU. I'm almost posotive that it's the same for me. Is it possible, however, to do this disable in the BIOS and add material? Heck, I don't know yet has baseboard to a slot for it, or if the case can fit the card.

Please, I would like to know if it's even worth my time, or if I should just put up with what I have.

Thanks in advance,

-Ryan

Your thought is correct. The video is part of the processor in your AMD A10. It is called a "APU" because it contains the processor and the video. You have the APU albums available for your model, so there is no possible upgrade. And you also have reason to question where you can even put a kind of video card. There is no slot on the motherboard and no place in the chassis for such a thing, even if it was of a 'thing' that is not. Stick with what you have.

  • HP Pavilion Elite h8 - 1070t: updated graphics card for HP Pavilion Elite h8 - 1070t

    Up to what series Gtx is compatible with this model on computer? I tried to install a Gigabyte Gtx 960 card to my pc and it was not compatible. I have read similar problems for older models of PC and I was wondering the compatibility for this particular model range.  In addition, Gtx 750ti will be compatible with this model?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Your PC is a PC old BIOS and most new graphics cards are active UEFI.

    Most, if not all of the NVIDIA GTX 7xx and 9xx series graphics cards with some exceptions will not work on your PC. The BIOS of your PC is not compatible with these graphics cards.

    The NVIDIA GTX 660 with a 600 Watt power supply will be all that you can do better.  The NVIDIA GTX 670 and 680 can also work, but they can be finicky in older PCs.

  • Equium P300-16 t and update graphic card

    Hi all.

    I was thinking about upgrading my graphics on the computer laptop satellite P300-16 t. I have not opened yet so my question is, has anyone here opened this machine? If so, is there a way to install a dedicated graphics card? i.e. the pcie? Could someone please advise if there are institutions in the machine to upgrade my graphics?

    My gratitude in advance for any help.

    In General, update graphics card is not supported and cannot be done.
    Toshiba has written about it in http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    A common problem with portable mobile is the heat and to built the effective cooling system. Each laptop has optimized cooling system. More powerful graphics card will produce more heat, and this balanced hardware platform will not properly work. Can result in permanent damage from overheating or material.

    Maybe stupid comment now, but if you need more powerful your laptop sell on eBay and buy a new one.

  • Power supply with updated graphics card update

    I am considering buying the HPE-150 t with an improved graphics card standard:

    1 GB ATI Radeon HD 5770 [2 DVI, HDMI, DP, VGA adapter]

    I went on http://support.asus.com/PowerSupplyCalculator/PSCalculator.aspx?SLanguage=en-us to the appropriate power needed for this gauge system, and it recommends a minimum 450 Watt power supply.

    If I ended up buying the HPE-150 t with updated graphics card, I get a power supply improved to compensate for the increase of energy consumption?


    Here are the specs of your motherboard.  It indicates a 350 Watt PSU.  However, if you scroll down to hardware options, you will see a 460 watt power supply associated with the 5770 video card.

  • Update graphics card on HP Pavilion PC h8-1214

    Can someone suggest a good upgrade for the video graphics card on my son's computer?  It's a HP Pavilion HPE h8-1214 desktop PC.  It is an age of high school gamer so I'm looking for something in the sub series $400 (or even less if possible).  I don't know if he really needs an upgrade, but when he bought the computer, the former owner told him that he should update the graphics card in about a year.  I think he still has the card that came with the computer. a graphics card Radeon HD 7450 with 1 GB of DDR3 memory dedicated.  I guess I also need to check and see if she still only a 300W power supply or if the previous owner has replaced that.  Site HP says that there must be a PCI Express x 16.

    Hello

    A video card the fastest for the games will require at least a 500 Watt power supply.  The Corsair CX500, or CX600 would fit well in the H8-1214.  As for a video card, NVIDIA GTX 660 (double wide card) should be enough for most modern video games.

  • HP Pavilion G070ca: update graphic card

    I'm just curious to know what graphics cards I can install in my laptop. I have the 17-inch HP pavilion G070ca laptop, it uses a processor intel I7-5500u and a nvidia GT940m. I would like to probably the 970 or 980 just wanting to know if people are compatiable with my laptop

    Hello:

    There is no removable or stretch graphics card in your laptop.

    Nvidia GT940m GPU is integrated to the motherboard and the only way to update the graphics would be to replace the motherboard together with one of those enrolled in the service manual for your laptop model that may have better graphics.

    It would be a very costly intensive project work.

    Better sell your laptop and one with the graphic solution you want to get.

    JATON video-339PCI-HLX Radeon HD 5450 512 MB 64-bit DDR3 card should work and this ZOTAC ZT-60604-10 L GeForce GT 610 512 MB 64-bit DDR3 PCI card should work, but in both cases, you will need to upgrade the stock of 250 Watt PSU to something like the Corsair CX430 PSU.

  • Update graphics card on Pavilion

    I have a Pavilion P6719 desktop computer.  My son is unable to play games 3D on Steam, and so I was wondering what I should update the graphics card.  I was also told I need upgrade the power supply because it is 250 watts.  No idea how much these improvements?  Thank you.

    Hi, I'm glad I could help.

    Since your motherboad specifications, you should be ok.

    It has a PCI Express Gen 2.

    The provision should allow a video card double width.

    The current supply is a standard ATX case size.

    It's 250 watts, so you will need to update.

    So quite here what they are available everywhere.

    I can truly say all the necessary connections for sure without actually opening it watch, if you order something without knowing for sure get something with a lot of connections to the computer.

    A ULTRA ULT-LSP750 should do the trick.

    It has enough additional connections which should cover all the bases.

  • Update graphics card on HP Pavilion DV6920ea

    Hello world

    I was wondering if it is possible to replace the graphics card for my HP Pavilion DV6920ea. It comes with Nvidia 8400 m GS graphics card.

    I searched around, and I understand that it is difficult to update the graphics card on computers laptops/netbooks and that whole motherboard replacement may be necessary to replace the card if it is integrated into the card mother.

    I looked at what I think is the graphics card inside the laptop and it doesn't seem to be welded. I am looking at the right thing, it means it is easily replaceable?

    I think the upgrade to a graphics card more high end... (more than 8400 m maybe 8800 m)

    Any help is appreciated.

    ~ Net

    You can improve 3D performance (as in the games) to disable Aero snap and replace your desktop Windows Classis theme. Who will free up memory for your game resources.

    Regarding how I diagnosed your laptop scalability goes... I use research to do. I find which chipset is installed, and the features of the HP motherboard. Lets read the tech on the phone manual always.

    With HP laptop/portable computers, you can assume generally that except if graphic switchable part package was purchased then you can not move the graphic solution.

    There are a few upgrades graphic external relatively expensive available on the market. ViDock2 is one of these products. It's an interesting device. Using the ViDock you can play any game on the market using your laptop.

  • Update graphics card on Pavillion dv7 Notebook

    Hello

    I was wondering if I can not update my graphics card on my HP Pavilion dv7.

    -removed-

    Also, if I can improve, should I use a specific map to fit the laptop?

    Let me know if you need any additional information.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Please don't not poast private information about any forum. Basically, you can, with a cost, and I think that this cost can be more expensive than buying a new computer because you have to take into account:

    • New price of the card, and WHERE you can buy it because the laptop cards are not the same office maps. You can't buy any normal store,
    • Need new card system (can be),
    • Need new system of cooling because in general more powerful card pumps out more heat (you want more powerful card don't you?).
    • May need new power supply because your current diet is not suitbale for the card. (I ordered a machine with the Nvidia card and I need to order a 90W charger at the same time, not the normal charger 65W. They rejected just my order.)
    • Cost of the work.
    • Packages a lot, a lot of aspirin.

    I hope this helps.

  • Update graphics card for my HP Pavilion p7-1534

    I almost had my PC for a year now. I am looking for a good gfx card update that will allow me to run some high senior graphic games smoothly on graphics settings. Battlefield, ArmA, GTA are examples of games... Games like this. I know that I will also need to upgrade the power supply with the new card. If you could show me a few good cards and supplys power which would best adapt to what I'm looking for. Thank you.

    P.S. Try to stay as close as possible to $400. I'm not trying to spend too much more than that.

    Hello

    Feeding Corair CX500, or CX600 will best fit inside your PC and will have enough power for most video cards.

    I run BF3 using a NVIDIA EVGA GTX 660 upstairs to the Ultra no problems at 1920 by 1080 resolution. In addition, if you want your PC to run in UEFI mode you can get an EVGA patch to enable this feature.

  • Pavilion P6680D: updated graphics card

    I have a HP Pavilion p6680d desktop computer and I was thinking about upgrading my graphics card to an Nvidia GeForce GTX 680 motherboard: Iona-GL8E MS-7613.

    It fits and what I need to change the power supply to operate.

    Hello @Kyukyumii,

    Thanks for the quick response!

    Unfortunately, I can't make recommendations about these products.  Generally, most of the gaming graphics cards, will have PCI Express 2.0 or higher.  There is always a chance that you will experience reduced performance, based on your hardware.  I hope this helps.

    Kind regards!

  • Pavilion 15 e008-sc: dedicated graphics card update

    Hi one just want to ask if possible to modify and update a dedicated graphics card?

    AMD Radeon HD m 8670 is dedicated to my laptop inside. I want to update this to little graphics card more powerful. I don't want to buy a new machine. It is possible on this type of material.

    If so, that will be good? I can put here nvidia or amd graphics chip, it must be?

    CPU: Intel i5 - 3rd generation 3230 m 2, 6 ghz

    RAM: 8 GB

    I think that the processor and RAM are kind a good but the power of the graphics card is somehow a hollow. Thanks for the reply

    Hello

    Unfortunately, the Radeon HD m 8670 is integrated with the system board and is not an evolutionary element - this is the case for virtually all mobile phones as a consumer.

    Kind regards

  • update graphics card for desktop PC HP Pavilion p6-2378

    I am looking to update my graphics card for my PC. Those who would be the best for my computer?

    Gamer30, welcome to the forum.

    I think that your handle explain what you want to do with the new video card.  Therefore, in my opinion, you have to upgrade the power supply (PSU), also.  The existing PSU is 300W.  Latest intermediate level maps require a minimum of 400 w to work properly.  These cards will be much better than the integrated video.

    I like Corsair and OCZ PSU.  They are of high quality.  Here's one that should fit in the space provided and give some future upgrade room.  I would normally recommend at least 500W, but 500 or 600 w will work as well for your situation.  The computer does not use any more power there need work properly.  As a result, won't hurt the computer. I recommend you measure the PSU existing and comparing measures to whichever you choose.

    I like the graphics cards XFX, EVGA, Sapphire and PNY in that order.  Here is one that you will give a boost to good performance and won't break the Bank.  I recommend you stay less than 9 "long.  This ensures that it fits in the space provided.

    If you don't like one of the recommendations I have made, they will give you at least an idea of what works in your computer.  Always read the reviews to see what users have to say about any product you decide to buy.
