• Upgrade graphics card and power supply

  I will apologize for my lack of knowledge, but what are the procedures to follow regarding changing the settings (i.e.BIOS) before unplugging my computer to install the new units; or on startup AFTER installation of the new equipment? I have a long history of building electronic for example, amps, Preamps etc... but another that understand the end mechanical (installation of equipment), I beg near complete ignorance about the computer upgrade. For general information, I install a ZOTAC GeForce GTS250 graphics card and an Antec Earthwatts 650 power supply (the apparent overkill is in a hurry to other possible mods). I will also add extra cooling for all electronic components, it is the killer #1.

  Thank you very much, David... The graphics card is simply an upgrade of a Nvidia GeForce 8500GT card, so I hope no problem!

• HP Pavilion 500-164: the upgrade of the graphics card and power supply on a HP Pavilion 500-164

  I'll be upgrading my HP pavilions integrated HD graphics 8570 D a STRIX ASUS GeForce GTX overclocked 2 GB DDR5 128 - bit DisplayPort HDMI 1 750TI. 4 a/DVI-I graphics card. With that I also improve my diet to a Thermaltake TR2 500W 240 pins power power TR-500. I was wondering if it of ok to do on the computer and will not damage it. It is extra steps when I install these. Initially, I got the PC with windows 8 but have upgraded to windows 10.

  Hello

  If the ASUS 750 TI requires a 6-pin auxiliary power connector and your computer is running a version of HP 8 BIOS then you should be OK.  Open your PC and measure to make sure that graphics card fits.  In addition, open the command RUN and enter: MSINFO32

  Your computer is running a version of HP 8 BIOS?  If so, and if it is possible to install the graphics card then go ahead. Find out what the return policy is before you buy.

  Thanks for posting on the forum.

• 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.

• No video after having replaced the graphics card and power supply

  I have a desktop HP Pavilion m9515y PC. The graphics card that came with it (NVidia GeForce 9600 GS, 768 MB) did not suit the minimum specification required by a game that I played. Things in the game has been very slow - I could see a delay of s ~0.5 to move my mouse on the splash screen for the game.

  Today, I bought a new graphics (NVidia Geforce GTX 550Ti, 1 GB) card and a Corsair 700W PSU to replace the 350W one that came with the system.

  From the outset that I messed up something. It's been a while since I opened the box and I thought wrongly that the top panel (with the rubber surface) to come off before the side panel could be deleted. I removed the two screws now the top panel in place and slipped it in the process it disconnect and two thin black wires which I do not know the function. It was attached near the power button and one was attached to the rear of the Panel. The sons have stripped the ends rather than a connector of some sort and I don't know how they connect back or if they are the cause of the problem that I see now.

  In any case, I advanced and removed the old PSU and video card and replace them with the new. Two of them are significantly larger than the components, they replaced, but they managed to adapt with some maneuvers. All cards are well-placed in the PCI slots.

  The power is connected hard disk, DVD drive, the motherboard and the new video card. I'm not aware of any other connections that need to be made to food. There was not much clearance between the power supply and the back of the DVD player, but I was able to get the data and clinging to the DVD of power cables.

  After having done all that, I hooked my monitor DVI cable, plugged in the power cable and turned on the power. When I plug it in, the power button on the top of the tower is illuminated and the power seems to work. However, my monitor indicates that there is no video signal. I tried to put the old return video card, but I don't always have a video signal. Because I can't get a video signal, I can't tell if the PC is start or not.

  Does anyone know the purpose of the wires that were connected to the top of the Tower?

  They would cause they cause this problem if they are not correctly connected?
  Any suggestions for the possible causes of the absence of a signal from a video card?

  I just took the PC to a repair shop and it turns out that the problem was quite simple: I don't have the PCU power cable 4 pins hanging. Everything seems to start fine when we hung out at the shop. Fortunately, the place that I took did not even charge me what as they don't charge co-pays and since it is such a simple fix.

  Now I feel kind of stupid, but I know better next time...

• HP h8m question. Graphics card and power supply.

  Hi, I am planning to buy a HP h8m series. I just want to know if it is possible to update the graphics card (by default it is an AMD Radeon HD 6450) to an AMD Radeon 6950. For what I searched there are 2 drawbacks. First is the power supply. Default power, the computer has, I think that it's 300W and the graphic card requires 500W. So my first question is, this computer would be able to manage the change of power supply? The second question that I have, I read on the Internet that this graphics card is physically large in size, so, this computer can fit this graphics card? If there is no response, please can you me better graphics card, it can adapt without worrying about food? I think it can be great information to say that I'm looking animation 3D with this computer so I think I need a good graphics card. Thanks in advance.

  Hi Pablo

  Look over thisNVIDIA GTX 57. It has 2 GB of memory, which will help to 3D.  This card is longer and must adapt. You will need a bigger PSU such as recommended by OG.  A Corsair CX600 is a good choice

• Graphics card and power supply units?

  My computer power supply is 300 Watts which is good... Pretty good or too little to run a good graphics card with PrE9.

  My computer specs are...

  Compaq Presario CQ 5305 UK,

  Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.

  Pentium dual core CPU E5300 @ 2.60 GHz,

  hard drive 320 GB - Sata,

  4 GB of RAM,

  1 TB external hard drive.

  Thank you very much

  With material AVCHD (or any H.264), a newer, faster Quad-Core or better yet, i7 - 9xx CPU will be really necessary for smooth installation.

  The next step, even if it's not so important with this material, is a 2 x, or 3 x HDD Setup.

  Obviously, the power supply will be important when you add HARD disks. Never sell short PSU in a video editing computer.

  Good luck

• 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.

• Upgrading the video card and power supply, these will work with my system?

  Hello, I am wanting to update my graphics card as my current one is finally fall behind on current games, BF3 beta is a restless nighmare and BC2 must be smooth running low (ick). I was satisfied with the weaker graphics for now, but its time for an upgrade. In any case, I think I have my selected updates and I just want to confirm that they will work with my computer until I pull the trigger. My current equipment:

  I plan on upgrading the graphics card on an Asus NVIDEA GeForce GTX 560 (Fermi)

  And the power of a passionate Corsair 850W 80 + CERT (I know this is perhaps an exaggeration, but I can update to motherboards in the future to run two SLI cards and do not want to upgrade again)

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=17-139-009&SortField=0&SummaryType=0&PageSize=10&PUR...

  I removed the side panel to check the dimensions of the new card and it looks like it fits. The only thing that could be a problem of release the cables SATA for the hard drive and hard drive because they are both plugged into the two slots, I don't think that the two superiors would be no problem at all. Depending on the thickness of the new card is also, it may be very close to the sound card that is spaced only a slit above the graphics card. I have another location available PCIe x 1 go back one level more that I should be able to plug the sound card in if there is no problem.

  My question is that these two will be compatible with my system? (physical limitations side)

  Also, can I change which SATA plug the hard drive and disc plug in, without having to reformat? Is it just unplug and plug in the new housing? (setting power off + unplugged of course) Basically passing SATA0 and SATA1, SATA2, and SATA3. Or do need to be filled in order? (0 then 1 then 2, etc...)

  Finally, If I can't move the sound of a standard card, do I need to do anything other than the physically move when the computer is turned off and unplugged?

  Any help is appreciated, thanks!

  John

  jkalbin,

  You have thought through all scenerios. Move the sound card does not any problems. The hard drive should stay in header SATA 0.

• 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.

• Upgrade graphics card and PSU.

  Hi, I'm going to be upgrading from my power supply and graphics card for the p6-2442eahttp://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03714374.

  I narrowed down it to 7790:https://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Components/Graphics+Cards/AMD+Radeon/Radeon+HD+7790/PowerColor+Radeo...

  7850:https://www.aria.co.uk/SuperSpecials/Other+products/XFX+Core+Edition+Radeon+HD+7850+2GB+GDDR5+Graphi...

  These cards are compatible with the current motherboard and system bios currently has?

  Also what would be a good power upgrade who would work with the computer, I was thinking of http://www.scan.co.uk/products/550w-psu-xfx-core-edition-p1-550s-xxb9-85-eff-80-plus-bronze-sli-cros... but do not know if it works or if there is a less expensive I could get.

  Or the other graphics card should work without problem. The HD 7850 should be faster in most of the benchmarks, while the HD 7790 has low energy consumption. XFX P1 - 550 s-XXB9 PRO550W food should be good, or you could consider the Corxair CX500, or CX600.

• 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.

  I want to ugrade my video card, but if I want to I want to improve my diet.

  Whats a better video than the Radeon HD 7570 card? and what kind of power supply do I need for it?
  

  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.

• 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.
