Pavilion c 500-509: replacement of GPU & PSU

I intend to change the GPU to a MSI GTX 2 960 and the EVGA PSU 500w 80 + Bronze. I'm just worried that I could met problems with the size of the GPU and overall coherence. Also to be honest, its my first time intend to change the components of a PC. I have a friend who will be able to put the pieces of the PC.

It's the PC I have at the moment:

If your PC has an external power brick you cannot update the PC with an internal power supply.  Your PC specifications indicate an external powr brick.

  • 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.

  • Replace the GPU GT 530

    I have a pavilion HPE h8-1150uk, 530 GT GPU fan begins to make noise and I would like to replace it.  I am aware of the difficulties of the BIOS etc of these machines when you choose a replacement of the GPU and I would appreciate your recommendations for a replacement of the GPU.

    Thank you very much.

    I decided to abort the mission, I removed the GT530, as it deepened the own and it works fine. However, he taught me never to buy a HP desktop computer ever, due to their poor after sales maintenance of the MoBo BIOS.

  • New Graphic card of the HP Pavilion HPE-500-cs

    Hello, I have HP Pavilion HPE 500 - cs with win7 on it.

    Because I wanted to give my PC to my brother, I decided to keep the GTX 460 graphic card to give it a lower new Ge Force 9400 GT which I got from my friend. There is not a supply of radiator connector and PCI-E connector was reconected several times so it is not loose.

    But what is the problem. When I try to start the HP Pavilion with new GPU, it freezes just to the HP loading logo and I can't do anything.

    Is there a way to change the old GPU to give it the lowest?

    There is something on the forums on secure boot in the bios, but it's just for win8.

    Thank you

    Edit: Sorry for my mistake... I called the power as a PCI connector which of course isn´t

    Thank you very much, but now I see the problem in me.

    And it s because I have a different look in the bios and I can´t see the menus as it guides, but I remember that once it was like that.

    This would solve my problem if I could downgrade somehow it back.

    But still, thank you for your comment

  • Can I replace the GPU on Satellite L300D?

    Hi, I have a problem with my Satellite L300D.

    From the start after about 15-20 seconds it stops not to reach any screen. I took it to a real PC repair company and after a few days that they be taught me the graphics card had packed and needed replacement for the sum of £ 70. Tell him what I kind a second opinion and spoke to a friend I.T. from my friends who said that we can not just replace the GPU as it is part of the motherboard and it would cost more than £150.

    Could someone advise / tell me who is right, the laptop is about 4 years old. Any help is greatly appreciated

    Thank you very much
    Paul

    In General, your friend IT is right. On mobile laptops graphics card is attached to the motherboard and cannot be replaced or upgraded.

    In such cases service order new mainboard and replace it. Problem is that this new mainboard is quite expensive.

  • Pavilion dv6-6156ea: display replacement

    I need a litte help, earlier my screen woudnt turn on unless I bent the lid of my portable computer at a certain angle. Now, its competely went and even the Hp Logo that lights up in the back corner of the lid woud affected in the same way. So is it possible to replace the Ribbon for the screen of my Hp pavilion dv6-6156ea without replacing the whole screen and if so I'd like to help /suggestions on different parts of the source and replacement

    any help will be greatly appreciated

    Yes it is possible, but I'm not sure that's the problem. Have you tried an external monitor? Unless it's off to an external monitor the problem is not the ribbon cable to the screen or the screen of the Control Panel, but a motherboard problem.

    Here is the Service Manual:

  • HP Pavilion 500-250la: is this GPU compatible with my computer?

    Hello, I was looking around on what I need to upgrade my computer, an HP Pavilion 500-250la.

    I would buy this GPU, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202137

    Is it compatible with my computer?

    And I was also told that I would need a new power supply. What kind of power supply do I need?

    @VicBoss

    I checked on the website of Sapphire for the specifications and I found these two pages, which have the same name and are the closest, I could find the name you provided. We have 2 cooling fans and the other has 3.

    R9 vapor-X 280 X 3 G D5 - http://www.sapphiretech.com (version 3 fans)

    R9 vapor-X 280 X 3 G D5 - http://www.sapphiretech.com (version 2 fan)

    Both recommend a minimum of 750 W power supply and both require 2 x 8 pins to THE power connectors, so you'll need improve your diet in order to predict that the two cards are also double wide and it will probably block of the PCI Express x 1 (Gen 2.0) locations on the map. I suggest you check the space inside your system, particularly in the area of your current diet to see how you have the room. Power 750W power supply (or higher) will certainly be larger in physical size.

    You have to watch a third party supply, as I am not aware of all that HP stock with this title.

    I hope this helps.

  • HP Pavilion 500-326na: Fix fan GPU Desktop?

    After doing some research and trying to find what was wrong with my desktop computer and why he was doing this noise, I used AMD Catayst Control Center and a program called SpeedFan and when I lowered the speed of the GPU fan is quiet and stopped making noise. so now I know it's the fan of advice on what do I do?

    My PC makes noise video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7_iULq8LgE

    The good news is that you can replace the fan. Look at this picture.  You don't have to remove the radiator.  The part number is displayed on the fan housing.  Browse the different examples, some show only the fan, which is a fan of type 4 son PMD. Do your research (because your to the United Kingdom?) and I can't assess the availability of replacement.   The RPM is a key factor. Too slow will trigger a full stop.

    Make sure you understand the position and rotation of the fan blades.  You do not want to install a new fan "toggled".

  • HP Pavilion 500: Can I install my HP Pavilion 205t - 500 HD in HP Pavilion 500-490?

    My HP Pavilion 500 - 205t was destroyed by lightning. The HD is OK I bought an HP Pavilion 500-490 because the specifications were very close.  I want to use my HD 205 t. Both computers are Core i3-4130, 1 TB 7200 SATA 6 G 3.5 HDs, same OS (Windows 7 Pro 64). My question is: can I exchange them, or should I get an external HD enclosure and copy the 205t on the 490? If I need of the HD casing external, looks like aluminium would be better, but would like recommendation for who holds out my HD.

    Thank you. That's what I needed to know. I read that just replacing the hard drive could invalidate it. Not like the old days! I could have put the HD in the new machine and it had a race without delay. I ordered external HD casing that you recommended - and thank you for that, too. I would get in 6/24. Blessings, Abby

  • Pavilion c 500-267: HP Pavilion 500-267c 64-bit

    The hard drive on my HP Pavilion 500-267c already (I've only used the computer for 1 year) has a bad block, I am looking for a replacement.

    My questions: 1) what size hard drive I need to purchase?  Not ability, but physical size.    (2) how many bays are available?  I want really to buy 2 drives and install them both inside the tower.

    Thank you.

    The system requires at least a 1 TB hard drive. Example of what is used: SEAGATE 1 TB 7.2 K rpm SATA 3.5 INCH FORM FACTOR LFF BARRACUDA ADVANCED NCQ GRAND III.  Although you didn't want a suggestion about the ability, I always offer a maximum of 2 TB. Something more grand requires special formatting settings.

    Now on adding a drive... you will need to inspect the chassis.  Now, I was unable to determine the configuration of car cage.  This example pageis very generic, it shows both styles (single or multi).

  • Pavilion g6 - 2217cl: the HP Pavilion g6 - 2217cl RAM and CPU/GPU upgrade

    Hey there, I am looking to upgrade the RAM and CPU/GPU on my G6 Pavilion. Here's my current characteristics;

    Laptop model: HP Pavilion G6 - 2217cl

    Operating system: Windows 10 family (x 64)

    Current RAM: 6 GB (used 2 slots)

    CPU/GPU: AMD A8 - 4500 APU with Radeon HD graphics card

    What are the possibilities should I upgrade?

    If more information is needed, I'll be happy to provide.

    It supports up to 8 GB of memory and the processor can be upgraded to a 10 - 4600M. Here is the Manual:

    Manual

    There is no video card to upgrade, but for the models of series AMD A video is contained in the processor itself and an upgrade of the processor also carries with it an upgrade for HD 7640 G HD 7660 G video. It's light but a bit noticeable and clock speed go from 2.8 ghz to 3.2 ghz, which is not huge but noticeable. Memory is a DDR3-1600 module, and you can replace your 2 gig with a 4 gig to spend 6 to 8.

    Memory upgrade is as easy as... CPU/APU don't upgrade not so much.

    There is no graphics removable/replaceable 'cards' in your laptop.

    The GPU is soldered and integrated into the motherboard.

    You need to replace the motherboard together that would cost as much buying a different model with the graphics you're looking for.
