I need to update my graphics card

I don't know where the graphics card is in my PC I have a Compaq Presario S3040SE I am up dating him right now and I want to upgrade the graphics card.

Your PC has only a power of 200 watts, so there is not a lot of video cards that will work.

Are you looking to improve the performance of game or something else?

    Hello:

    Unfortunately, the video card is unable to be upgraded in your model specifications, or most any other laptop by the way.

    The integrated video chip is soldered on the motherboard and it uses system memory. Video chips even discreet are normally part of the motherboard and cannot be changed.

  • Improved Xw6200 ro Win8, need to update the graphics card - advice please?

    Hello

    Recently upgraded to Win 8 on workstation HP xw6200 of my son.  The graphics (Nvidia Quadro NVS 55/280 PCI) card no longer works and I understand that this card is not supported.

    Can anyone suggest a suitable and inexpensive replacement? There are has four locations the same (we have the current map in), a PCI-Express x 16 (graphics) and a PCI-Express x 8 Prime slot * below.  Both are empty at the moment.  The * explanantion is 'PCI-Express x 8 main connector that has x 4 bandwidth'.

    I've never changed before PC components, but a google search suggests it is relatively simple... If this isn't the case, please also scream!

    Thanks in advance

    Kevin

    You can go to the nvidia site to find if there is a driver for it also W8 should have detected and it did mine before I realized it was the same thing that nvidia had so I guess w8 is a driver search to get the drivers for it... http://www.nvidia.com/content/global/global.php

  • Can I update my graphics card?

    Dear Sir/Madam,

    Is it possible to update my graphics card? I have ENVY of HP dv6-7210ei Notebook PC with GeForce 630 m 2 GB graphics card. Can I move to 660 gtx for example?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    As in my previous answer, no you can not even with the portable version. Let's put it this way: 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.

  • Updated my graphics card

    Hello guys, I'm going to buy the

    HP Envy 700-056/700-216 desktop computer with AMD A10 - Quad Core processor accelerated soon and I'd like to update the graphics card I can play COD on it. Apparently HP computers are known for being finnicky with different graphics cards? I would like to know if the

    EVGA GeForce GTX 750Ti w/G-SYNC Superclock support 2 GB memory GDDR5 128-bit, Dual-Link DVI - I, HDMI, DP map chart 1.2 works on it. What the recommended power supply with this combo? I believe that this computer has power supply 300W

    Reconsister2, welcome to the forum.

    If it's the video card that you want to review, it should work with computers.  The problem is that card manufacturers have made their cards need UEFI instead of a standard BIOS.  HP didn't start using UEFI full until mid-October 2012.  Given that the two computers you listed have Windows 8.0/8.1, they must be good.

    Now, the map in the link shows that it requires a power supply (PSU) 300W or more.  I read the various reports on this subject, however.  If you decide on the map, you can try it with the existing 300W POWER supply to see if it works.  It won't hurt a thing to try.  It simply will not work correctly if it requires more power.

  • Satellite L850 PSKG6A: need to update the graphics driver to play games

    Hello

    I played a few games on my Satellite L850, but some games says I need to update my video card driver. Auto detect Intel said that my video card software has been changed.

    Is it possible to update my video card without any problems.
    Thank you

    Model: Satellite L850 PSKG6A-00R00H

    Hello

    The laptop supports a graphic chip Intel HD 4000.
    Usually, you could use and download the page Intel graphics driver.

    http://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?lang=eng & changeLang = true & dId = 22376 DWNL

    It is the zip package.
    To update the driver unzip the package first.
    Then go to Device Manager, choose the graphics card, choose set to update driver.
    Now you must point to the unzipped folder containing the driver files.
    Apply and finish :)

  • Equium A60: Is it possible to update the graphics card?

    Because the graphics card in the A60 Equium is not very good and I was wondering if I could get a different graphics card and plug it into the back and used instead.

    Hello

    No, it s not possible to update the graphics card to another.
    As you certainly know, the laptop technology is not the same as the desktop PC simply. It s the motherboard technology all just different. You know that heat is a bigger problem for every laptop and generally of designer, developer and manufacturing. In addition, the various interfaces are not equal.

    For example: what do you think, why Intel doesn't produce chips with speeds of 10 GHz, 100GHz, or 1000GHz. Because of the heat.

    I think that the graphics card performance will produce more heat, and this could lead to overheating problems.
    The other graphics card needs another module of cooling and the cooling module must be compatible with the motherboard. Everything needs to be changed (the case design, interfaces, etc.) before the upgrade might be possible. In my view it is simply not possible at the moment.

  • Is it possible to update the graphics card in the Satellite A200-195

    Is it posible to upgrade this card for me to play the game of MSTS?

    Usually it of not possible to update the graphics cards installed in notebooks!
    Laptop technology is simply different!
    The graphics card is attached to the motherboard and it of not possible to remove it in a simple way.

    I have always recommended to use the computer to play the game!
    If you need the computer for hardcore games you should buy a desktop computer.
    Why? Because the latest games need for most fastest graphics card and the desktop PC can be upgraded much easily as a laptop.

    But finally it of your choice what you use ;)

    Hi, lawless,

    Looks like it's not. (HMM) hardware maintenance manual says about p.82 the microprocessor and the GPU is soldered to the system board. It is in the section on replacing the system board.

    Here are the specs of your computer CQ5210F. Based on these specifications, you can install a PCIe x 16 graphics. Also, unless your replacement card does not require more than one power supply 250 watt system, you will need to upgrade your diet as well.
