HP pavilion p6226it: can I upgrade my pc with a new graphics card?

Hi, I have a hp pavilion p6226it, I would like to know if the graphc 7750 HD card would go well on my old pc.

matherboard: M2N78-(Violet6)

Processor: AMD Athlon II X 4 620

RAM: 6 GB

Graphics card: HD 4650

Same expert people told me that I could have problems because of my matherboard and bios (I've never updated), is this true?

@antonmartino,

Hi again.  Just below the section for memory you'll find.  What you can do is take existing specifications and the specifications of the motherboard and see what card maximum that you can put in the slot.  The only thing you want to look at is what is the power required by the new map you found and if the power supply has enough power to stay with her horse.  If you talk to any place of the computer with the specifications of this page, that I gave you, they can give you the best option.  What I do is take the listed specifications of the card and match the cards, in that you are looking to put.  Check to see if it's the same dwelling and look to see if they require the same requirement for voltage and they should work perfectly.

I hope this helps.

Thanks again for the post and have a great day.

  • Pavilion p6 - 2120t: Windows will not start with the new graphics card

    Installed a Zotac GT 740 profile down in my desktop PC graphics card HP Pavilion p6 - 2120t and now the PC does not start.

    HP Pavilion p6 - 2120t CTO desktop PC

    Configuration:
    Intel Pentium CPU [email protected]
    4.0 GB RAM
    Intel HD Graphics Driver version Family: 8.15.10.2291 dated 27/01/2011
    Motherboard: IPISB-CU (Carmel2) (1 open PCI Express 16 expansion slot pins)

    BIOS to Version 7.18

    Running:
    Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit w/service pack 1
    Two monitors (VGA, 1 digital port 1)

    Before installing the new graphics card, I replaced the power supply original 300w with a 400w power supply.

    For starters, I disabled the onboard graphics in Device Manager. Then, I opened the case and installed the GT-740 in the open PCI Express slot. I made sure that the card was fully engaged in the slot.

    I plugged both monitors to their connections voted on the new map.

    When I tried to boot the PC, the digital monitor displays the screen HP (the one that indicates which key support to achieve the start menu) and then frozen. No other entries of key or mouse have been accepted.

    The PC then sounds 4 short beeps (about 10 seconds between each beep) and then a long beep before turning off the signal to the screen.

    Then, I removed the new graphics card on the PC that starts then. I have reactivated the original graphics drivers and the PC then worked normally.

    Tried the above process two more times with the same results.

    I then went into the start menu to look at the BIOS. The menu of the BIOS shows two options:

    > Sources of boot UEFI

    Windows Boot Manager

    > Sources of boot legacy

    ATAP I CD/DVD player

    SATA2

    Hard drive

    SATA0

    Network controller (Realtek PXE B06 D00)

    PC using UEFI Boot Manager Windows boots normally

    I have not tried Legacy Boot Sources because I don't know which one to choose.

    I went to the HP site and looked for an update to the newest BIOS, but updating them is a rev version 7.16 while my PC shows my BIOS to version 7.18

    I know that others have had a similar problem but I have not seen a solution that works for my PC.

    Any advice would be welcome.
    Thanks for your time.

    Hello

    Your PC isn't spec'd to run Windows 7 using the Windows Boot Manager.  I expect to a UEFI-based graphics card likely to work on an HP PC that does not have a BIOS version 8.

    The below listed OEM HP, graphics cards should work in your PC using a normal non - UEFI W7 and W8 installation.

  • HP Pavilion p6-2469ea replace it with a new graphics card?

    Then after hours of stress online and planning on the upgrade of the case, power supply and a GTX 760, I fell on contradictory comments and other experiences of users during the installation of new cards in the PC.

    My PCI-E X 16 slot is a 2.0 then the card is 3.0, but they are retro-compatible, so all that means is I lost a few images, however, users have said HP lock their computers that are predefined and will prevent any installation of new parts that are not installed origanlly.

    I need to know if this is true, before giving up £300 + on equipment to upgrade this PC or to get rid of it and create one from scratch.

    If anyone can help I would appreciate it a lot.

    The motherboard is the blue/white MS-7778 Jasmine if this is useful, with card Nvidea geforce GT 620

    Ok.

    Indeed, it is stretchy. Be sure to check all system requirements of video card foresight to see if they require that you upgrade the PSU. Check the specifications of your PC to see how many Watts (RMS) power supply delivers. I just checked. It has only 300 Watts. It would be preferable to one with a little more grunt (@450 Watts or more) If your goal is to upgrade to a video card that has real power.

    More low end PC have no power supplies which are equipped with six and eight-pin PCIe power connectors. They are required for general public and higher end graphics cards.

    The video card on that question:

    Requirements

    At least a 350 Watt power supply.

    (Recommended minimum power supply + 12 volt current rating of 18 AMPS).

    Power total draw: 49 Watts

    Some versions of the video card, according to the vRAM installed consume more energy.

    From the looks of it, it should be great, but it doesn't. I can play Battlefield on the graphics settings that I would and given the fact that I have a 2 GB graphics card, it's a little weird. This could be due to my diet (it has total 460W)?

    Hello

    NVIDIA GTX 7xx or 9xx series graphics cards will not work in your PC.  The BIOS in "chicago" mothererboard is not compatible with the video BIOS in the graphics card.  You will need to get an older card chart such as the one of the below listed OEM HP graphics cards. Depending on the graphics card, you may need to replace the power suplly.

    I've updated, drivers and BIOS of this HP Forum... and then I turned off my pc, took out the 530 and replaced by the 960. I start up the PC and it's me stuck on this screen.

    Don't, don't. It will be brick. They are also 2 completely different mobos. One choice is to buy a new motherboard or a new pc.

  • upgrade Alienware Aurora - version PCI Express graphics card

    Hi, I want to improve my Alienware Aurora with a new graphics card. I always use original equipment, an ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series (with GDDR5 1024), which runs with PCI Express 2.0 x 16. I had no problem with the card, but as I can't play Company of Heroes 2 with all the settings above, I want to get better. As I was looking for a new card, I wondered if my system supports only the PCI Express 2.0 version or also higher versions (like 2.1 or 3.0). Unfortunately, I couldn't find this information (my motherboard is an Alienware 0H869M). Maybe you can help me. If you have a recommendation of a good graphics card, I would be grateful that as well. Thank you.

    You can use the latest AMD Radeon cards that were designed for PCIe v3, they work only PCIe v2 mode, and generally it will not create any problems. I wouldn't say anything much higher than a 290 R9 or R9 x 280.

    You can also choose any NVIDIA card brand because they can also run on PCIe v2 and most people actually do this right now because they have not upgraded to a v3 PCIe system.

  • Satellite L100 - 121 PSLA0: can I change the motherboard with a better video card?

    Is it possible to change the motherboard for a Toshiba Satellite L100-121 PSLA0, which is a 945GMA of Intel graphics card, with a motherboard with the best video card, or just the video card?

    I want a better video card on my laptop, so I can change it?

    Hello

    You cannot move the graphics card because it s mounted on the motherboard.
    He welded s and cannot be deleted

    But I wonder why you want to replace the mobo together to get the best graphics card. Is that a card mother books is one of the expensive laptop parts.
    The replacement would cost about 300-400 euros.

    I think a desktop PC with a new graphics card would be much cheaper ;)

    I can also clearly see that disk hard fails or starts the Windows 7 Edition operating system home premium.

    I am running Nvidia GT 630, and back on this card machines works well again.

    It just loks like the new graphics card prevents the hard drive to run.

    All attached cables (power cable 6 pin) and locked firmly into the PCI slot.

    Is it possible that the new card draws so much power that it prevents the hard drive of the race?

    When you press ESC, it seems that the hard drive is registered in the Bios.

    I'm not familiar with current PC for sale, regarding upgrades.  Since is considered a new HP, try looking at the list of options on the HP website.  Most higher end PC have the options that you choose before buy you, to customize the generation.  Choose a model with options that match your criteria now and notice the upgrade options - write down them - to avoid confusion later.  OR go with a customized version, but this could mean significant spending.  It is the hand off the coast between prebuilts and personalized.

  • The HP ENVY h8-1500z with a new video card upgrade

    Hello

    My current video card is a 1 GB of Nvidia that came with the installer and requires more power.  I want to upgrade the video card for this (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131562) this map requires power and this kind of care.

    I opened my PC and it looks like the current power is 300W, but I do not see a card for a video about this card. My question is: Y at - it sort of an adapter I can use with existing PS? If I need to exchange the PS, can I use any power supply in this PC? It will be (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139050) to adapt and work? If not, what suggestions do you have?

    Thanks for the help.

    Wanted to add that I am running:

    6-core AMD FX 6120 to 3.50 Ghz

    14 GB of RAM

    64-bit OS Win Pro 8.1

    NVidia GeForce GT 620

    The graphics card, you want to install on your computer requires a minimum of 500 watts power. The Corsair CX500M that you access will work for your computer and work with your desired graphics card.

  • Can I put a new graphics card and power supply in my computer.

    Hey all, I have the model P7-1459 and it is good, but I was hoping maybe give him a boost of game. But I was not able to know if she could handle what I want to do. The new graphics card would require a 450W power supply, and I do not know if this model could handle. Anyone know of a way or another? Need help.

    Joshua, you are welcome!

    I'm sorry that I misunderstood your question.  I thought that you wanted to know if the computer would process the card.

    Yes, you can upgrade the power supply (PSU).  I suggest to measure the PSU existing and comparing these measures to the one you choose.  I love OCZ and Corsair.  They will provide quality amateur with a reasonable price.  A good video card requires a clean and stable power supply.  I recommend at least 500W; 550W at 600W would be even better.  This would allow for future updates.  The computer uses only the amount of energy needed to operate the components.

    I hope this helps.

  • Pavilion p6 - 2020t: HP-Pavilion will identify the new graphics card

    Hello

    I got a HP Pavilion for a few years now and never updated my BIOS (not that I know well). I'm trying to install a new graphics (gtx 750ti) card and the computer does not recognize it. It shows the first screen, and then a black screen and a beep, then it crashes. Keyboard does not work, cannot get into the BIOS.

    I tried everythign with current BIOS, boot legacy and ensuring that the Integrated GPU is disabled, and nothing works. I also did research on food, and but it is not terrible, it should work with this graphics card (the fan even spinning).

    According to my research, the current BIOS is simply not recognize, and I need to update. My current version is: FRIEND 7.16, 05/10/2011

    I navagate through the HP website and it said that the automatic update should update the BIOS for Windows 10, and it won't let me download all drivers (although the last BIOS update was 2011). I tried to enter the FRIEND's site and download it from there and it won't even install their drivers, it says that flash is not supported (probably for Windows 10).

    If someone could give me an idea of how can I get a newer version of the BIOS for my motherboard, it would be much appreciated as I'm pretty sure that's the reason why the computer is not recognizing the new graphics card

    The risk is that the video card is one that is for a newer PC with an EFI BIOS. That's why the empty card is not recognized.

    If you use a card equipped with a switch on the virtual card allowing the use in legacy and uefi BIOS it will work with the BIOS of your PC.

    Sapphire makes video cards that have this capability. Take a look at the catalogue. What you need is a PCIE x 16 card video with switchable legacy\uefi BIOS or legacy support, but not only UEFI.

    http://www.sapphiretech.com/catapage_tech.asp?cataid=8 & lang = eng

    You cannot change the type of BIOS that your PC has in the UEFI.  It's a question of his being of a generation of diferent from the PC.

  • I'll be able to install a new graphics card in, h8-1070uk Pavilion Desktop PC.

    I bought this computer around September/October time last year. No get hurt, the computer is AMAZING, but I can't put up with an integrated graphics card (NVidia GeForce GT545 / 3GB is the default that comes with the system). So my question as I am able to change my graphics card? I have a GTX ready to go GB 680.

    Here are the specifications of your desktop HP Pavilion HPE h8-1070uk. According to the specifications, the motherboard has integrated Intel HD 2000 / 3000 graphics (depending on model) and supports PCI Express x 16 graphics cards. Your system was shipped from the factory with a PCI Express x 16 3 GB NVidia GeForce GT545. In addition, specifications, your system is equipped with a 460 Watt power supply. All the GTX680 I watched require power minimum system assessment of 550 watts or greater. So, Yes, you can replace the GT545 with a GTX680... simply put to the power supply as well. Corsair CX600 is slightly larger than a stock HP power and is highly recommended, but also a favorite forum. For more information, read Guide of Big_Dave of a discrete video card selection .
