Pavilion HPE nh8-1220: update video card

The card mother M3970AM-HP will install in this support machine PCI-Express 2.0 x 16 graphics bus type cards?

BIOS of FRIEND ang-713 12/29/2011 and seems to be the most recent available.

I removed the expansion card NIVDIA GeForce Gt530 that comes with the machine and replaced it with a PNY GeForce Gt730 VCGGT7302D3LXPB card and it hangs just to the top of the computer.

The GeForce GT530 that comes with the machine said on the card what is the PCI Express 2.0 bus support.

The plug from motherboard says it welcomes PCI Express x 16 graphics cards.

You are welcome.  Thank you for the additional information.

I talked to Technical Support for all major video card manufacturers.  All of them said that their cards later would UEFI.  The best thing to do is to contact Technical Support for your card to see what they have to say.

  • Pavilion Elite HPE-180 t: Pavilion HPE-180 t update video card

    Hi all -

    I'm hoping to get an official word on the question of whether my machine (mentioned in the topic) is able to handle a graphics card, I just picked up.  The port seems compatible and there seems to be room, but I'd be more comfortable upgrading if somebody here has estimated that the hardware is compatible.

    The map I picked up is a Radeon R7 - 260 x - CDF.  If you do not feel that would work, is it a good (affordable) map out there that I could pick up that will be?  Thank you!

    Hello

    Check with the manufacturer of graphics cards specific and find out if the video BIOS on the card will work with a PC that uses a legacy BIOS.

    Find out what the return policy is before you buy.

  • Pavilion HPE 440F: need new video card for HPE-440F

    Salvation;

    The ATI Radeon HD 5570 in my Pavilion HPE 440F appears to be dead, or is doing. The fan has stopped working and I think the map has overheated.

    I'm running Windows 7 x 64.

    Anyway - I would like to install a new card - and best video. It is, since it is HP, I bet that not all cards are compatible with my system.

    For example, I can buy an ATI Radeon SR-290, which gets much higher than my current card pass mark. Or maybe even a NVidia card might be a better value for the money.

    Can someone point me to a list of compatible video cards for my system?

    Thank you

    p.s. My Linux box is not an HP.

    Ubuntu_Kid, welcome to the forum.

    The problem you are having is, most of the newer video cards require UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS.  HP didn't start using UEFI until mid-October 2012.  Your computer was released on August 26, 2010.

    Some of the manufacturers have developed a VBIOS that will allow their cards to work with legacy BIOS.  I know that the EVGA has done with some of their cards.  I suggest to call their Tech Support (1888-880-3842) to see if they have a card that will work with your computer.

  • Pavilion HPE h8-1330z CTO: video card dying fan, tried to replace the card, the computer does not start

    This Pavilion comes preinstalled with a nVidia GeForce GT 630 graphics card. The fan on the card goes bad - the card smells "burny" when I run, the fan works really hard and the computer crashes while playing graphics-heavy games.

    I tried replacing a PNY Verto GeForce GT 730 2048 MB DDR3 card. But now, with the Verto installed, my flag starts, it crashes just on the HP splash screen. I can not start safe mode nor can I access the BIOS settings.

    Care of the Verto seemed to think it would work in my Pavilion - PCIe 2.0, at least 300W PSU. I searched online for help but can't find a solution for my problem.

    Any tips?

    I checked the support page for my Pavlillion and I noticed a updated driver for my computer's BIOS. I installed and it seems to have solved the problem.

    I use version 10.5 On1 photo software which is a little slow with my current video function.

    @johnh48, welcome to the forum.

    The most recent video cards require UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard/Legacy BIOS.  HP didn't start using UEFI to mie-October 2012.  The BIOS may not be upgraded in the UEFI.  The last cards only not for UEFI are the GTX 660/670.

    Here is a video card that will give you what you need.  However, it will take a power supply (PSU) upgrade, too.  I love Corsair products.  I propose a modular power supply at least 500W.  Almost any card that meets your needs will require an upgrade of the power supply.

    Press the Windows key, type in "Device Manager" without the quotes and the Device Manager select from the list that appears, or press ENTER.

    In the window that appears, find graphics card and press the sign more or arrow to the left of it. It should fall down the name of the video card you have.

  • HP Pavilion Elite HPE-210f: update video card

    A PNY gtx 950 should physically be in a HP Pavilion Elite HPE-210f? I already know that I have to upgrade the power supply, but before shelling out more money, I figured I would see if anyone knew if the card fits?

    KKingotu, welcome to the forum.

    The problem you will have with the GTX 950 is, it requires UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS.  HP didn't start using UEFI until mid-October 2012.  Your computer was released on February 5, 2010.  There is no way to update the UEFI BIOS.  You can contact Technical Support PNY to see if they have a VBIOS update for the video card that will work with your motherboard.

    Meanwhile in the space provided, you can measure e/s rear plate on the front of the computer case to see if any of the components.  In addition, it is a wide double card (two locations).

  • Pavilion g6 2303su: update video card?

    Hello.  I'm here to ask you, could I upgrade my video card on my HP Pavilion 2303su g6?  As graphics card Radeon HD 7670 M becomes older and older, I was wondering if I can get my video card to a newer model of AMD or Nvidia even?

    And also if I might well want to ask you if it is possible to update my video card, to give me some recommendations or the same list of compatible video card for my laptop designs.

    Any help would be really greatly apreciated!

    Kind regards

    Opticork

    Hello:

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

    (GPU) graphics cards, are chips that are welded and their circuit integrated on the motherboard.

    The only way to update the graph on your laptop would be to replace the motherboard.

    But as the graphical installation program has your laptop is the best that HP offered for this model, there is no motherboards available with better graphics.

  • Update video card with Pavilion H8-1214

    I have a HP Pavilion HPE H8-1214 with 6 X AMD970 chipset of the motherboard Gigabyte M3970AM, 10 GB memeory with an AMD Radeon HD7450 graphics card. It works really well, with the exception of the video card, which is usually the pint of starter in over-the-counter computers. I bought a power supply 600W for extra power and PCI-E cable; the installation went well and the computer still works well.

    HOWEVER...

    Bought and tried an AMD R7-260 at Best Buy, which is a compatible card PCI-E x 16. No love, died in the start screen.

    Tried an AMD R5-240, still no love & dies to the start screen.

    Tried a 690 Nvidia it (what is said HP IS compatible) - died still in the start screen.

    Finally got a Nvidia 610 to run there, but it's not better than than the AMD Radeon HD 7450.

    Is there something that I am missing? BIOS has been flashed to 7.16, it's all clean and works very well with the 7450. Suggestions, please and thank you!

    You are welcome.  Thank you for the additional information.

    HP makes a great computer.  Therefore, it does not surprise me that is to be reliable and durable.

    Here's a video card made by MSI that has a switch that will allow him to work with legacy and UEFI BIOS' are.  The only problem is the length.  It is 9.84 "in length.  You can make a model of the size of the card to see if it will enter in the space provided for this purpose.  There's a video directly below the image of the map.  Paul of Newegg did a good job of describing the map.

  • Pavilion 6654: 6654 update video card/power HP

    I'll add 4additional giggabites to increase the total memory (RAM) to 8 GB so connected.

    And besides, I will buy a 400W power supply.

    Will this work for my current 6654 Pavilion?

    You are welcome!  Thank you for the additional information.

    As I suspected, your computer has a standard BIOS.  This means that you can buy an older video card.  I love EVGA products.  I suggest to find a card you like and contact Tech Support from the manufacturer (Technical Support EVGA 1-888-880-3842) in order to ensure that it will work on your computer.  It is the best way I found to do not have to make a return.  The last card done EVGA used a standard BIOS was their 640 GT.  Some of them have a update for the VBIOS that allows them to run with a standard BIOS.

    Now for the power supply (PSU).  I love Corsair products.  I normally recommend at least 500W.  This allows for future updates.  A modular power supply is good for smaller cases.  Simply use the required cables, allowing a better air circulation.  You must measure the existing PSU and compare the measurements to the one you choose.  All connectors must be compatible.

  • Pavilion 500-339: update video card for a 500-339 Pavilion

    I have a HP Pavilion 500-339. AMD A10, processor 3.5 GHz quad-core with 8 GB of RAM, running windows 8.1, 64-bit. It came with a Radeon R7 240 video card. I know that physical space is limited inside the computer case, but what could I upgrade to that would fit? While not the biggest PC-gamer out there, I do not play a bit and I would like the best features. Thank you!

    Hello

    Without replacing the power supply, the NVIDIA GTX 750 TI would be an excellent choice. Choose a model that does not require a 6-pin auxiliary power connector.  Open your Pc and do some measures so that you know for sure that the GTX model 750 will be fit. Most should adapt to certain expectations.  Know what the return policy is before you buy.

    Warhound, welcome to the forum.

    The first thing you have to do is to upgrade the power supply (PSU).  The current PSU is only 250W.  Most recent most of mid-level video cards requires a minimum of 400 w to work properly.  I love Corsair products.  I normally recommend at least 500W.

    Here are the system requirements for Battlefield 3.  (GTX 560 and AMD 6950) recommended graphics cards require 500W to work properly.
