HP pavilion p6520y power source

Hi, quick question about upgrading my video card.

Diablo 3 will be out soon and I would like to upgrade my video card in the game before that. Ive been looking at this map here, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=14-130-609 & SortField = 0 & SummaryType = 0 & Pagesize = 10 & pure...

and on sound reviews say that it is no necessary additional energy source. But according to the HP website, he states that out of my diet is 250W computer configuration, and the video card requires 300W. Should I get a power supply upgraded to run this video card, or any other video card? I don't want to buy a power supply if not unnecessary, but I would also like to play D3 in graphics the less 'high' mode. Any help or suggestion for video cards would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

-Mike

Mphillips5015, welcome to the forum.

Yes, you will need to upgrade the PSU to run this or any other video card more recent intermediate level.  If you upgrade to at least 500W, you can even buy a better card.  I love the Corsair and OCZ PSU.  They are made with the player in mind.  They provide clean and stable power for your system.  The PSU is the backbone of the computer.  Therefore, it is not the place to save money.

  • HP Pavilion p6520y (win7) built-in wireless adapter will not detect ANY wireless network.

    HP Pavilion p6520y Desktop on Windows 7 Home Premium

    Error MESSAGE: "DO NOT CONNECTED - NO CONNECTION IS AVAILABLE" (from the tray icon of wireless with X red network connection).

    No changes to the system, in fact, it's brand new. I just want to use my built-in 802.11n Wireless LAN Card to connect to a network including all other PCs (laptops and desktop computers) can see.

    I tried a lot of things: toggle, adapter, adapter to uninstall/install, driver update (RT3090), PC restore/recovery, reset the router, change the configuration of the card (e.g., power management), all no. AVAIL.

    There is a port of type mini co - ax at the back of the tower for an ANTENNA which came with the PC. However, I think that the internal card could still detect a signal from 20 ft away without antenna. Isn't it?

    PROBLEM SOLVED:

    Of course, the last thing I mentioned was the cause. I have set up the office within inches of the wireless router and a signal (albeit low) was detected.

    So I guess the fixing of an antenna (which should have with my PC) will improve the signal reception when the office is further away (say 20 ft, or more). already checked radio shack with no luck.

    In any case, at least, I know what the problem is. Hope this helps someone in a similar scenario... See you soon...

  • WSN power source selection

    Page 11 of the WSN-3212 States guide:

If the two are related, the functions of the external power supply input device, but may require a reset device when the external power supply is cut off. »

    I see the expression "MAY require reset" by suggesting that he might or might not.  It is possible, but has not guaranteed, that node continues running (although on AA) even after AC is disconnected?

    Thank you

    Garrett

    Hey, Garrett,.

    As stated in the manual of the product is not designed to backup battery.  In the case you described, the node will likely restart.  When the external power supply is removed, the voltage will drop momentarily causing the node to reboot.  There is a chance that the node will happen without problems, but it is not guaranteed and I recommend it on your system for this design.

    Let me know if you have any other questions!

  • HP Pavilion p6520y desktop PC: need help to upgrade my ram

    I have a HP Pavilion p6520y Desktop PC model #: WW636AA with a FOXCONN 2 92 motherboard, AMD 785 G Chipset. I'm currently upgrading my ram of the current 6gbs maximally whatever my computer supports. My motherboard says it supports up to 16gbs (since I am running Windows 7 64 - bit), and I'm trying to figure out what I should update.  I scanned my pc on Crucial and they gave me a bunch of suggestions, but I still don't know what I should buy.

    Analysis of the computer on the essentials: http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/scanview/65CC1E0131D926C3

    Card mother: http://www.findlaptopdriver.com/foxconn-2a92-mainboard-specs-742010h517p/

    Is it smart to upgrade to the maximum ram and what type of memory should I update? In addition, my computer can even support 16gbs of ram? I have receieved conflicting information about it and I need to check the info I got is correct. I will include a picture of my computer listing of Speccy.

    There are a few suggestions on crucial, such as the Crucial Ballistix Sport 8 GB Kit (4GBx2) DDR3-1600 UDIMM LP or the Crucial Ballistix Sport 8 GB Kit UDIMM DDR3-1600 (4GBx2) or 8 GB Crucial Kit UDIMM DDR3-1600 (4GBx2) and so on. (I don't know if you can see the recommended memory when you view my scan. I guess you can, but might as well include some of them that I'm interested in.)

    Here are the specs of the computer of Speccy:

    Thanks for the help in advance!

    The funny thing is, I was about to buy this one right before I posted this, but I just wanted to see what others thought and if I'm right that my pc supports this amount of RAM. Thanks for the suggestion and response

  • Desktop Pavilion slimline s5623w installation of card firewire but how to connect to a power source?

    First of all, I HATE THE SLIMLINE MODELS. NOT WORTH THE MONEY! got as a gift and thought, I could replace 2000 mine thinking it was cheaper because the technology is less expensive.  BIG MISTAKE!  sucks it first audio, so I had to buy branch pregnant even hear, I use the old speakers from my other computer to my mp3 player and it rocks!  then I find not modem phone fax so I buy a usb phone modem, but wishes to make all kinds of mistakes.  now I have these old camcorder videos I want to run through this program a and discovered the firewire card was too big and did not yet align.  on my fourth product now and this one fits.  Yes! but now, we must be connected to a power supply inside the computer? where is he? has a white connector with pins on it but no wires and where is the food, which is not connected to anything else?  Need help please, cannot afford to buy a new computer and it comes to the central computer of my house.  I know a lot of things apart and do their work, but these slimlines suck.  now I know why, they are thin because they have emptied the thing.  computer first for a school kid, but not someone who keeps her home running with everything I do.  So where to connect?  How can I get this thing to work, because it fits so well after all this time looking for the right hardware?  the only reason for which I installed today was because a disc is stuck in it, because the disc is made to be vertical, another error!  disks grind and get lost in there... but I would like a response to my concern at the moment... can not replace the thing and did not have my only other more... Thank you double checked okay there a power connector to the white thing with pins but to connect and what wire?

    To Associate Dean wb2001

    The firewire card is fine as I had mentioned previously.  I installed it and the computer knows it's there.  I really don't see why the name of the thing is so important.  I DON'T PLAN to buy anything else for the problem I have, and I never told him I would.  The only question was if the thing needed food and where to find it, but on mine, I found some answers to that too if I have to use this way.

    so I have thought my problem already and the card firewire is fine.

    That's just the problem with the software now.  I was going to change the thing to the other pci slot and see if anyone makes a difference, but the computer has recognized the new hardware.  This isn't something to do with the firewire card or computer.

    As your couriosity is so bad, Dean associated wb2001,

    I had bought the firewire from newegg like this card and found the profile down those who have the extra bracker for proper size.  It is manufactured by Rosewill.  went with no problem, really easy.  but these slimlines haven't ligned up very well the other slot PCI express.

    It may just be the old camcorder... What is needed right now is the driver for the thing.  an trv520 sony handycam dcr.  I don't know if there is a driver, but when you look at I found one, but still does not recognize the camcorder.  then, in windows, they said all the drivers are included in the operating system for these things, but do not automatically install it like any other.  I'll most likely find the answer by myself around the research on this topic, or I could receive a fair he made on discs, since I only have a few strips of film, but was hoping to get to again use this camcorder.  so I'll see.

    Then Associate Dean wb2001

    I don't even understand your statement!  mix you some point of what the devil, is a lottery?  MY BEHAVIOR WILL NEVER HAPPEN!  I'm still learning what I find, I just took part an out Alienware desktop computer while he was blue screening and crashing on my son, now it works like new!

    You didn't not give me a solution, I found it myself and an attitude you squirt!  I wouldn't be here to help other people with the same problems I am and if I found the answer, I would not share expected points and giving a few statements of nose snot...

    I'm not a stupid kid, I had worked with one of the first concepts of a desktop hp back in the early 80s shipped directly from California.  has shown the President of the company about what I could do with the software that has accompanied, that was enough to make them one of the first companies to use the registers of retail computer that we see now and abandon the old IBM.   Although these dinasaurs are always being used LOL.

  • HP Pavilion 6000 series crackling with power source

    On my desk, where power goes to the rear of the main computer, he continues to make a crackling sound and must be positioned to the right to get no power to turn on or it just cut. My computer is all just a year, and the three pins where the plug goes in are secure and not flickering. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem / know how to solve this problem, or even what it is?

    Then, there must be internal with the PSU.  Possible cold solder joint?

  • HP pavilion a1710n power supply needs replacement.

    I have an old HP Pavilion a1710n desktop power supply crashed and burned and needs to be replaced.  I've never been on a power supply on this computer before I upgraded memory and dial-up fans in the past.

    I already ran through the list control to full power on this site to confirm that it is food that is broken and needs replacement and no cord or anything else.

    I also confirmed what power to order part.  At this point, I just need to see a video of step by step on how to replace the power supply inside the computer tower or read the good strong guidelines for how to do it.

    Some advice there?

    Thank you

    It doesn't seem to be a video on the site of HP but it is an easy process.

    (1) turn off your computer and disconnect the power supply. Remove the power cord from the power outlet.

    (2) open the casing and place the computer on its side (open side upward).

    (3) take pictures where going to each power cable.

    (4) disconnect all power connections.

    (5) remove the four screws on the back of the housing supply by keeping in place.

    (6) turn the power off (can be a "locking tab" now in place.

    (7) reverse the steps to install your new power supply.

    Refer to photos for the location of the place where to reconnect the power cables.

  • Pavilion a775c power/reset button?

    I have an old hp Pavilion tower which has a motherboard BioStar inside.

    The other night, I was doing something when the screen went black and the light on the power switch will Flash yellow.

    Run fans, that the monitor only stop blinking when connected to the video card. the fan on the card, so I guess that the card is good. As an additional check to ensure that the card is good; My son-in-law has hung the tower with its monitor, using its video card, still nothing.

    Take off the lid of the Tower, I noticed that there were only connectors on the power pins on the front panel to the motherboard.

    My thoughts on this is the person who has replaced the motherboard did not connect the pw switch correctly and when for some reason, the Commission went into hibernation, and given that nothing is connected the PIN; the motherboard will not be from hibernation.

    My question is very simple, I'm on the right track; and if I am how I connect the original power switch to pro

    empty power switch and reset.

    Thank you very much for your review

    Have a blessed day

    Bob

    (1) is the scenerio of what's not correct? NOT without doubt, as the reset button is rarely used and does not have the computer on low power such as the standby or hibernation States.

    (2) if so, how do I wire the original switch for the reset on the map or what type of switch would I need to do the reset works? Again, it is probably not the case and your problem is probably caused by something else. Please provide details about your problem... What happens when you hold the button in 10 seconds? The computer turns off? What happens if you briefly press the power button? What operating system is installed on the computer? What is plant HP or your technician installed? Etc.

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

    Theoretically, there is no limit to what you could install. Reported desktop HP consumer does not not with supplies valued at more than 650 watts. There is absolutely no reason to replace your power supply unless you were planning on installing a graphics card high power or a large number of readers and accessories. Please consider the Corsair CX500, CX600, CX500M, CX600M. These power supplies are known to adapt to most HP consumer desktop computers and equip all but the most extreme updates.
