• XPS 8500 card video, power, upgrades

  I see several threads looking for upgrades XPS 8500 graphics card that can be used with the stock PSU 460w or improved power supply.   However, in upgrading the GPU for this machine, there are a few cards that are not compatible and will result in a black screen.    Even with a correct video card installation, an appropriate power supply and/or upgrade video card fans are going to work, but there is no video.   The problem lies in the BIOS to 8500 XPS motherboard does not recognize the video card and it is a known issue that has carried over from the XPS 8300 to the current XPS 8500.

  There was a video BIOS updates of some card manufacturers to fix this problem for some cards, but there are many old maps that do not work.  The safest bet would be to use a new card with the PCI 3.0 specifications.

  In the sticky in this forum, a link to the current Dell drivers shows the following video cards that support drivers for Windows 8:

  Since it's cards Dell OEM that are supported, there are also specific questions from manufacturer where a given video card model may or may not work according to its configuration.  Considering that an XFX HD 6870 will work in the XPS 8500, the same map made by another manufacturer may not work.

  Please consider this when you do upgrades of the PSU and GPU and, hopefully, BIOS upgrades in the future will answer these questions.

  It would be useful if you have a SPECIFIC card that does or does not, to indicate the manufacturer and the model number full in this thread.

  Operating system information and the Bios would be also useful, and if you use the power SUPPLY Dell or a block upgrade of power.  Specific model please!

  Edit:

  Please include following and other useful information

  Manufacturer number and model of graphics card:

  BIOS:

  Operating system:

  Power supply manufacturer otherwise Dell 460w PSU:

  Compatible: Yes or no

  Original card with the system that has worked:

  I just installed a GTX 970 in my Dell XPS 8500 with questions for the first time.

  It's pieces:

  • Updated my XPS 8500 Motherboard Bios to version "A12" while you wait for my parts arrive
  • EVGA NVIDIA GTX 970 Superclocked Graphics Card (EVGA 04 G-2974-KR)
  • EVGA SuperNOVA 750B 1 750W power supply (PSU) (110-B1-0750-VR)

  Note that I have chosen the 'Return of the fan' version of the card, rather than the version dual fan ATX 2.0.  This is because the design of the housing of the 8500 XPS is not 'Great' traffic.   The style of 'Référence' (shell solid video card with a single fan - which pulls air from the case in... and vents at the rear of the PC) is better suited to the XPS.

  

  Put a new power supply in a Dell XPS 8500 is a little something.   All ATX power supplies were about the same height and width (150mm or 5.09 ") and (86mm or 3.38").    The problem is the depth.   How deep into your PC can reach (extending to the back of your CD/DVD).   Don't forget, you have this tiny USB/headphone jack thing sunk to half way:

  

  I did some steps and realized that MAX PSU depth that would work would be approximately 165mm or about 6.5 ".     It's difficult because I wanted a 750w power supply more power and its REALLY, REALLY hard to find good food slot with less than (180 mm/7.09 "").   And who didn't come home.

  I have scoured every Watt 700 +, 80 + certified PSU carried by Newegg (from 01/12/2014).   Then, I checked cross the specs from newegg for each prospect with the manufacter to audit Web site.  I focused only on PSU at least 8 comments and then only if they have averaged a 3.5 rating (unless the low notes were for trivial things like discount).

  After having looked up the plug on more than 200 of the PSU (over a period of 5 hours), I only came with 5 potential:

  • EVGA SuperNOVA 750B 1 $69.99
  • MARINE RX-1000AE 1000W $119.99
  • SeaSonic SS - 750KM 3 750W $139.99
  • CORSAIR AX series AX760 $159.99
  • Coolmax 1200W ZPG-1200 b $282,35

  I also want to remind the reason why you MUST make sure that your power supply is 165mm or less in depth, and you can't say anything by looking at a a particular series.   Many unique models factory in a series which is just 'smaller '.   You have to look at the specifications of each individual model.

  For example, all except a psu on 700 wats EVGA are (180 mm/7.09 po).  Only 750B 1 is about 165mm.   You will also see that he is a 'Bronze' rather than 'Gold' or 'Platinum' unit 80 +.    I suspect it's "BRONZE" side has something to do with the size.   I they omitted huge heat sinks and a little efficiency to achieve the reduction of 15mm in size.   The quality of the PSU is always more than enough for my needs, and the price can not be beat.

  Now for the installation.   I won't say it was EASY to get the power supply into the case.  I had to unplug all my SATA power supply and cables.  I had to bend the cables on top of ATX case a little, and I had to be very patient reconnection.

  I also had to reroute the wire connecting the top of the case to the Mini PCI (?) card slot.   I didn't honestly it only those who were (they sit behind the rear USB sockets on the motherboard), and they snap on with small quotes as the clichés about the Jeans.  I tried to not interrupt them (because they look fragile), but I accidentally their popped.   Thank God they fix on.  There are even small arrows above each terminal (a black solid, outline to indicate white) so get back you them on in the right order.

  I found it very convenient for stuff a lot of cables in the vacuum "floppy" spot below the CD player.   I also found that I had to plug in the cables in a certain order - because some cables blocked the access to the terminals for others.   (SATA/Power to the CD player, for example is right behind UAP.  I had to do these first, because I would never get my fingers here if I saved that for the end).

  Now for the pre-installation preparation.   I updated the BIOS to A12 and downloaded the installer for the GeForce drivers before moving on my hardware.

  Driver Bios A12 two years ago, but they allowed detection of my GTX 970.  Someone asked me for the version of the drivers, so this is:

  Dell XPS 8500 / Vostro 470 system BIOS
  A12. EXE
  Release date October 29, 2013
  Last updated October 31, 2013
  Version A12

  As I said at the beginning, I was on the A09, but A12 is cumulative and takes you all the way (including all versions in the meantime).

  I uninstalled all my old ATI drivers until I stopped the first time.  I did install the Geforce drivers until after I went on my hardware.  (I wanted just the installer on my desktop - ready and waiting).

  Overall - it worked.  The map spans 2-4 "later in the case, but it fits.  The power supply is approximately 4 "away from the back of the CD, but it fits.   And it starts.

  I just finished playing "Far Cry 4' on the Nvidia setting 2560 x 1080.   The new parameter (beyond ultimate) appeared after I plugged on the map.  I also played Assassins Creed Unity (which is what I chose as my free with the card game - since I already had 4 Far Cry).   The two seem to play 60 fps with no problems.

  Because of the fan on the power SUPPLY and the evacuation from the rear video card, my machine works currently more cool now.

  Hope that helps.   My total cost was about $435.  $349 for the card and $69 for the power supply (taxes extra).

  Sincere greetings,

  Andrew Russell

  P.S. If you have questions about this weird brace to the right of the PSU...   I added a 3rd hard drive under the CD player.  There is only the 'Front holes' so I'm a little creative and put up one of the "PCI mounting plates" from an old ATX case.   I folded the right-hand curve and he the perfect length to attach as a cross tube to keep the hard drive in place.

• Possibility to get a new video card and power supply

  Hey everyone just curious if someone could lend a hand with some questions I have.

  I currently have a HP Pavilion Elite

  Model number: HPE-171f

  OS: Windows 7 64-bit

  
  

  Recently, I was looking around in my computer and I realized that I only have a 460w power supply. From the beginning, I knew I had to get a new power supply if I wanted to update my video card.

  But then I realized that there are a few constraints of size with the case. I was curious if one of the most recent as the GTX 670 Nvidia cards or 660 (when it releases) would fit in this case. With a power supply.

  I know it's an older case so with this question, I was wondering if its even possible/chip just to upgrade the card video and PS.

  Thanks for the help

  
  

  Yes, you can update your map graphics and power for something bigger. The CX500, CX600 Corsair are highly recommended, are favorites of the forum and are known to adapt to most cases of HP. With a length of about 9.5 inches, the graphics card GTX 670 can be tight but feasible in your case... measure along the x 16 PCIe slot and look for potential problems.

• Question about video drivers Satellite P100-257

  Hello.
  Question about video driver. Version 14.25... Works (tells... 945 GM chipset); 14.27--works but with ocassional problems (tells... 945GM/GU); version 14,29... (said 945GM/GU) - does not work at all - black screen, but you can hear sounds which tells that XP does all right.

  Why that? And what is GU? Pilot info says it is for 945GM, pilot says he's for 945GM/GU.

  All kinds of three said they are for Mobile Intel 945 GM Express chipset. Who initially my machine have said there. In section "video card" my machine said no Intel - some Calg... - don't remember exactly the name.
  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  As much as I know Satellite P100-257 supports the graphics card Mobile Intel 945GM. The code name of Intel's GM Calistoga
  This is not the same thing as the chipset Intel 945GM/GU. Both are different and so the graphics drivers are not totally compatible!

  The Intel page provides some interesting info on these chipsets:
  Mobile Intel Express Chipset 945GM

  Unfortunately, I have not found anything on the 945GM/GU.

• Rattling noise - the graphics card or power supply?

  Hey guys,.

  I've had my HP Pavilion Elite m9300t for almost 1 year now. About half of that time, I had to deal with the annoying rattle noise that I attributed to one of the fans in the case. Unfortunately, my PC is equipped with GeForce 9500GS formidable card (with the black cover) and so noise, while annoying, is not surprising. The rattling noise has been stronger and more widespread during initialize and not significantly lower over time.

  But now I have an another problem and I'm not sure if the two are related. Now, the sounds rattling calms down (no noise whatsoever) and in 20-30 seconds, the screen empty... similar to the computer goes into mode 'sleep'. More funny thing is, the PC is set to operate at full capacity and therefore the 'sleep' mode. This problem started occurring 4 weeks ago and happen once a few days ago. Now, I am unable to work for more than 5 minutes after the initial upward boot before the screen turns off.

  I concluded (don't know if I'm right or not, where my post here) I have a power supply issue. The PC came stock with a 350W power supply, but I don't know if my linked overuse of heat damage on the motherboard or the power supply failure. I work with software music production and large audio files 70-80% of the time and the PC stays on for long periods. I am aware that these applications are stressful, but I'm not sure whether or not they can cause the types of symptoms that I described.

  So basically I guess what I'm asking is the following; is my problem, a graphics card or POWER supply number or both? Then based on the advice given, I would also like to know what the next step is to get my PC to 100%.

  Thanks in advance for the help.

  If your PC still work with a white screen, I would check the video card first, especially since you did not get the new & improved version

  Try to isolate the problem step by step, the PSU isn't necessarily the problem as the system is in place.

• video card and power suply upgrade help

  I bought the Hp Envy 700-074 computer from Bestbuy. I want to update my video card to a power supply NVIDIA gtx 660 and at least a 600 watt. My problem is the size of the space available for upgrades. How long can the card may be before it hits something or limit too high air flow? The size of a power supply (size wise... height, width, length) will fit in the case. There are several different manufacturers of these two elements. I don't want to buy something online having to return, as he does not. If you guys can help would be great. Thank you

  Sandra

  The nvidia gtx 660 video card you've chosen fits in the single available on your card PCI Express 3.0 location mother MS-7826 (Kaili) so unless you placed another card, you won't have problems with space for the card that the computer has been designed with a map like this to be placed in this slot.

  As for power provide the current dimensions of the 460w (100v-240v) power supply of the computer are 150 x 140 x 86 mm (5.9 x 5.5 x 3.4 inches) as it is stated in the specifications of the product for your computer, as shown in the link below.

  A same size 600w PSU must break easily.

• HP Pavilion Elite m9340f replacement video card and power supply

  Hello

  I bought my HP Pavilion Elite at Best Buy m9340f in 2009 and brought it to the Venezuela where I live now.

  My video card, started making the noise of the typical fan geforce 9500gs can do. The temperature of the gpu is very high (from 73 ° c without playing or watching videos!), and I'id like to replace it as soon as possible before my material fails completely.

  But the power supply 350w, to replace any video card decent needed to change my diet too. I have not the slightest idea of what type of power supply should I buy, and if I should replace the case too. My intention is to keep my cpu, my mother, my hard drive and my ram (purchase of a new system to the Venezuela is out of the question because of the barbarian prices in this country).

  Then to take the questions in order, I'll here:

  -I want another video card (geforce 9500gs is known for his failure, so I want to upgrade to a more powerful card)

  -To do this, I need another power supply, so I need recommendations on the provision of market models which CORRESPOND to my HP Pavilion Elite m9340f or

  -replace also the case: what kind of business should I need that corresponds to the motherboard of benicia

  Thanks in advance

  The information below was previously published by Big_Dave in response to several other posters about their questions about GPU upgrades. Prices shown are in U.S. dollars and for American retailers.

  Your PC has a 350 Watt PSU if below video cards will work:

  $50--->NVIDIA GT 430 9.6 Gbps - single slot width

  $65--->NVIDIA GT 520 8 Gbps - single slot width

  $80--->NVIDIA GT 440 25.6 GB/s - single slot width

  $130-->NVIDIA GT 545 43 Gbps - location single width - could be hard to find but perhaps only in the store

  $110-->NVIDIA GT 240 1 GB DDR5. 54.4 GB/s - single slot width. This card does not support DirectX 11 which is eventually used in some of the latest PC games but it's a great performer.

  Review the performance of NVIDIA specifications. Look at the specifications of strip memory bandwidth and level of DirectX support.

  I normally don't recommend video cards AMD for PC with a 350 Watt power supply as AMD provides 400 watts or more for most of its video cards.

• HP Envy 750-177C: update video card and power supply

  Hi I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on a 2 GB video card that can fit in my camera, and if the power supply must also be of a certain type, thank you.

  @Docta1, welcome to the forum.

  Here is a video card that will definitely work with your computer.

  The power supply unit (PSU) in the computer is stanard ATX.  I love Corsair products and recommend at least 600W.   A modular power supply is good for small boxes.  It allows you to use only the cables that are absolutely necessary.  This allows for better air circulation.  The video in my link card requires a connector 6 extra pins.

  Please see these Radeon HD 7000 series graphics cards for cards that are better than the HD 7570. You have to measure along the plane of the PCIe x 16 for the selected map location will fit. The Corsiar CX500, CX600, CX500M, CX600M all are highly recommended and are known to adapt to HP consumer desktop computers mostly.

• Video card and power supply upgrade - XPS 8700 (mid-2013)

  Hello

  I was considering upgrading my video card in my 8700 XPS to an AMD R9 270 to an AMD R9 290.

  I was wondering weather the power would be able to take it.

  It's a 460W power supply which I don't think will be able to manage an AMD R9 290 so I was also wondering if he could not do, where can I get a more powerful power supply? I know where to buy a lot, but I don't know if Dell, you have specific feeds of size to fit the case.

  Is it OK to buy a market after we'll tell power 650W from any manufacturer or should I buy a specific for the case.

  Thank you.

  At the very least, get a 750w power supply. This one has been reported to adapt.

• Inspiron 530 video upgrade question card

  I have a Dell Inspiron 530 has. It has all the pieces of stock right now, but I'll put a core 2 duo E7400 in there when it happens. The next issue is that I need a video card for it. What is the best card that can be put in it without an upgrade to the PSU, yet? The power supply will not be upgraded for awhile. The motherboard is the G33M02, not 03 version version. He seems to have the 1.0.15 installed BIOS version, I will update as soon as I have the chance. It has not always been connected even to install an operating system - came empty (just bought from a wholesaler of machines of companies).

  Edit - forgot the bios information.

  Forget the 8400 GS.  This card is too old and has little to offer with regard to the performance of the game.  The HD 6450 or 610 GT are the best cards. The minimum requirement to play Mechwarrior online is the HD 6450 and the GT 610 offers similar performance.  If you want something better without too much spending, I'd recommend getting the HD 6570 HERE.  This card would have much better performance of game at the expense of others.
