My HP Desktop GPU upgrade
Hello.
I'm wanting to run more graphically intensive games and want to upgrade this HP desktop computer to deal with it, until I have more money to build a custom system. My my PC model number is NY464AAR. I created a post on TomsHardware and someone who knew a good amount on HP desktop computers sent me here (link to post Forum - http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2244842/desktop-gpu-upgraded.html#13867620)
He said that only a selection bit GPU compatible with HP, and they like to "minimize" the overall scalability of their systems to make more money.
What GPU should I use in this system? My price range is $ $100 - $200 Canadian Dollars. I'll also put the low power supply 300w to 500w power to accomidate the GPU (if possible)
I was watching the 7870 AMD to supply all my gaming needs. If it is not compatible, what are? (and giving around the same performance for the money).
Is there any best GPU to play games like Arma 2 and Dayz for the same price/preformance ratio? I don't really like what are the graphics settings, like, anything is better than what I played in with the Geforce 9100 integrated on the motherboard. My only real hope is to play 1440 x 900 and maybe 1080 p when (if) I update my monitor. But well, it'll do for now.
Thank you very much
Jack
Double post.

As you can see, Cpu and Gpu upgrade is not a good idea. Even if your motherboard can handle it but the Bios is not pre-tested for her. In any case, you must contact the Asp (SAV), they can tell exactly whether it is supported or not.

Hello:
The only way to update the video in most HP laptops is completely replace the motherboard by a listed in the service manual that might come with better graphics.
Normally such a business is not worth the time or expense.
The GPU is discrete or UMA, they both are soldered to the motherboard and cannot be removed or replaced.

Hello
I bought my XPS 8300 in 2011. He's been good for me over the years, but now I find that I could use a GPU upgrade. It handles most of the games, but barely meets the minimum. I'm still running Windows 7, but plan on spending at 10 at the end of the year. It has the stock power 460W Dell I have probably as well to replace it. I want the best move that will run on this system and fit in the case. It has the following specifications:

Alienware CPU &; GPU Upgrade
The CPU is also extensible on Alienware (mid-2013) 17 (ADMIN NOTE: maintain the label removed by privacy policy >)? (He has a graphics processor Nvidia 860 m 2 GB and an Intel i7-4710mq).
Also if, for example, I get the 880 m (I know that other messages on this computer, it is checked for this model. Not the series of 900 m, unfortunately. :/ ) I should do it myself, or dell offers a service to upgrade components? I would rather not mess up my computer if I can get a 880 m.
So, basically, should what options I have for cpu and gpu upgrades and how to approach it?
If I can still buy these things, where would I go? Dell just email sales support on this?

M18x R2 CPU/GPU upgrade help
Lately I experienced an annoying problem. I go to play a game like age of empires III, which shouldn't be a problem, but after a few minutes, the screen goes black and the only way to make it work is to reboot by pressing the power button. My M18xx R2 has had some problems before, so I recently replaced the discs and did a clean installation of Windows 7 Pro. I thought that might be the GPU?
I ran stress tests on the CPU and the GPU via Support help and all this goes well.
My processor is a Core i7 3740QM and I have 2 gtx 675M popular with sli.
1 can I upgrade to GTX 680 M without worrying about updated drivers using the or overheating? Meaning is it plug and play?
2. What CPU can I upgrade to that would be taken and play. I do not overclock. I thought Intel i7 3840QM.
Thank you
Here's the Alienware-tested (read: plug-and-play) GPU upgrades for the m18xR2.
- HD 7970 m
- GTX 680 m
Something more recent requires some work.
I would not upgrade your CPU if you don't plan on overclocking. The i7-3840QM is a good enough in itself.

GPU upgrade 2 GB Evga GTX 550 Ti suggestions?
I am looking to upgrade to a 970 GTX Gigabyte G1 Gaming or an EVGA if I'm looking at other brands as well.
Budget around $350.00 USD.
I'm still doing research and research with options open but I'm really more leaning to the Nvidia 970.
My CPU is limiting the PCI-E x 16 running at 2.0 speeds, but even with that, I think that the 970 would be
the best choice in the GPU upgrade. Thoughts or alternatives? You want something that works long term and not just
buy something cheap, until the next thing comes.
I'm NOT a gamer I mainly webdesign so a lot of image, video and audio editing. I'm more a combination
between an advertising marketing exec and a web developer with programming in PHP, JavaScript and all back-end
stuff with databases and also web video and audio stuff etc... I just combine it all in the title of Web Designer for the conversation
who actually confuses real webdesigners because I build a LOT more than just html and css pages.
It is a type of prosumer system where it is used for work and entertainment. Watching movies and streaming video
This works well on the current computer and I actually don't really need more of an upgrade beyond the GPU as this computer
It meets my needs and has 2 years. I expect to keep for a few years, I have built computers that will last
me 3 to 5 years, will eventually build a new, but for now everything works great.
I honestly don't care about having the biggest and best just something that will work for more than a year or two and meet my needs.
But it seems that the GPU tech is going through a revolution where the old technology begins to be depreciated and will not be taken in charge a large part
in the future I am looking to get a new video card might as well go with the new stuff now so it will be supported in the long term
everyone at some point.
I'm just confused by models and manufacturers or resellers who slap their label on Nvidia technology. Who is the best with little no.
problems. EVGA seems to be popular, it's my current card brand, but I like the Gigabyte G1 with additional display ports and
possibility of having 4 monitors at the same time IF it can be inserted into my system, it's HUGE.
-------------------------
Hardware specifications:
PSU: VisionTek 800W < == will be upgrade to a 750 or 850-Watt Seasonic, Antec or Evga also.
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H61M-S2PV ver 2.0
CPU: Intel CPU i7-2600 @ 3.40 GHz Stock using stock intel cooler fan
HD: 3 x - 1 to disk WD Blue and two black discs
Memory: 16 GB Ram 2 x - 8 GB memory-crucial
The blue drive is the system drive to the approximately 700 GB of the disk format and divided in two with
Windows 7 64 bit Pro and 8.1 of Windows in dual boot. No SSD not because of the MOBO only being 3 GB and not 6.
It was custom built by a store of the local computer that is off from where go out of business.
The upgrade of processor or motherboard is NOT an option that some purchased software is old school licensed
with attached directly to the CPU and the MOBO that cost more than the entire computer to buy
licenses (not associated with Adobe Professional software). In addition the upgrade MOBO or CPU, you are required to
Microsoft to buy a new license for windows and windows 7 can probably just reactivated windows 8 can not.
This motherboard is a motherboard micro, I didn't know that until recently. I did not build the computer myself.
I had no idea of what food was until a few days ago, but everything worked 100% for about 2 years.
I'll have to update the bios of the motherboard before actually being able to use the new video card, but others have the same model
and it seems to work as well... I have a request to Gigabyte but just to check before actually buying.
Remember though it is a Ti 550 video card I currently have and almost any update would see great improvement.
Physical size wise how much greater is the 970 compared to 550 it 2 GB Evga gtx? I add 2 GB because it
are other 550 which are totally different aspect that my card.
Also if you have any suggestions for the PSU that would be much too. So far Seasonic, Antec and EVGA are brands that seem to
forthcoming models much earlier. Not sure about the rating as some out Bronze models perform other models gold or Platinum so...
Budget about $150.00 USD for a new power supply too.
Thanks for reading this and for any suggestion, sorry that I can't upgrade mobo or cpu to be able to run amok with ideas, it is some what may be limiting.
Essentially, it's the GPU and PSU will extend my current level of use of a few years and the GPU has better performance even with
the other tech and bottlenecks in this particular system.
Like Bob of the Peru said. The money you would have spent on a GTX 970 would have been much larger than any improvement in performance that you could achieve (on a systemic basis, not only a specific component). In fact, the cost of a single GTX 970 would have been almost as much money as the rest of your entire system combined - and yet, the upgrade provides more than an improvement of 5 to 10 percent in terms of total return.
Very recently, I upgraded an i7 - 3770K and Z77 to an i7 - 4790K and Z97. Mainly because I wanted to spend my project/player and cache drive to SSD (s) in the not too distant future. (The Z77 supports two SATA 6.0 Gbps ports and 4 SATA ports 3.0 Gbps in native mode, which is the impetus for this upgrade). But in order to take account of the upgrade of the CPU, I had to get off my GPU slightly to a 660 GTX for a GTX 750 Ti (for my particular workflow, GTX 750 it performed almost as well as the GPU high-end in terms of overall performance of the system).
That said, there are reasons to move a GPU for a GPU to budget (or even ultra-low-budget, for that matter) to a 'Warrior' or the 'monster' GPU. But improving rendering performance on such a limited as LGA 1155 Sandy Bridge platform is not one of them. And a GPU upgrade is valid IMHO only if the rest of the construction of PC is to speed - with a much higher total system start-up costs.
Moreover, a single 1 TB WD black or blue (versions WD10EZEX and WD1003FZEX, respectively) may not achieve the best 180 - ish MB/sec - and it's on the outside tracks of his tray. A HDD WD four-year-old (Blue WD10EALS or Black WD1002FAEX) at 7200 RPM have barely hit 125 MB/s on the outside rails. As such, with disks one alone, I agree with the other responses: remember to save it upward to an i7-4790 a W97 chipsets motherboard instead of lose a single penny on this generation i7-2600/H61 (your current system, by the way, is completely maxed out on RAM to only 16 GB total - and you can not pass the RAM any more far away).
In other words, your current PC is, indeed, obsolete (as in "cancelled" or 'is there something better now in this category', not ' is no longer useful or usable").

the HP Pavilion Desktop 500-329 GPU upgrade
Hello! I was wondering if it is possible to upgrade the GPU and the power supply of my
HP Pavilion Desktop PC 500-329
The GPU is a GTX 960 and the PSU is a 500W EVGA power.
I read that I had to turn on legacy something with the computer with the f10 boot menu. I made this and just want to know if it's possible.
Yes, you can upgrade, simply follow the recommendations of the manufacturer of the graphics card on the connectors and the power of the power supply.
You have a PCI Express x 16 (Gen 3.0) card slot there will be plenty of choice for video cards.

Pavilion 550-151na: the PSU and GPU upgrade for my 550-151na?
What would you recommend I bought this as my first PC and I am under the understanding I can't upgrade my GPU because the PSU is not able to manage up to what would work with that PC? I'll do it when I can, but I would like to know. If I can't I will return the PC when it happens and buy a PC from Dell Alienware
This desktop PC has a Μatx PSU with a production capacity of 180 Watts. It is not enough to feed a video PCIe x 16 game card. The PSU Μatx has also no PCIe connector for a video card.

The PC was shipped originally with a GPU Radeon HD 6450 (1 GB). It has only 2 video, outputs and he wanted to add a third monitor. I recommended he buy a new GPU. He bought a 260 X XFX R7.
http://xfxforce.com/en-us/products/.../AMD-Radeon-R7-260x-core-Edition-R7-260x-cnf4
Also, we went to electronics, Fry's and bought a new power supply, a N500 Lepa, which is a power of 500w. We have successfully installed your new diet.
Now, when I removed the old GPU, and put in the new GPU, PC turns on, the Red led light on the front comes on and stay red, but the PC unbootable. The screen is black, and it is not initialized.
I once forgot to connect the power supply to the GPU. That day the PC started to boot the system & I was able to use logmein remote inside to turn it off, but once the machine was turned off again and I plugged the power of pin PCIexpress 6 pay-per-view, same behavior. PC is out of warranty w / HP, so that they are without help.
I went to the website of HP and the BIOS update. still no luck.
We have added some third-party RAM. I tried to remove the third-party RAM to see if it was the question. Does not solve it. I tried to remove the OEM ram and install just the 3rd part of RAM, but has not made a difference either.There is not BIOS version 8 available. Your situation is not a happy scenerio.

XPS 8700 Special Edition - GPU upgrades
Hello. I have the top of the special edition line 8700, but I am not satisfied by the gaming performance of the Nvidia 750ti on the high end games. I want to know what cards I could possibly be upgraded on this system. I know that it is a medium-sized chassis and I'm not sure what is the power supply. I would like to know if any of you guys know what can possibly fit into this machine, and if you have upgraded to an another GPU.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Information on the cliff:
GTX 960 - good without a new power supply
GTX 970 - many debates on a PSU update if it is required or not. Just update.
GTX 980 - fits in some cases cut and an upgrade of the PSU, but gets hot. consider a case upgrade.
980ti GTX - even as the reason 980 and more for a new case that breathes better.
I would avoid the high-end AMD cards in the case of stocks due to heat issues.
And, you can easily sell your 750ti on eBay.
