Placement of mobile card i.e. Graphics & video cards

Others? high s you can judge my apprehension and lack of compu-know-how.  I want to install the new graphics card & PSU.  I can move video card up a slot to allow more space for the card GeForce GTS250 cooling "warmer." However, this puts video card just below 650W PSU... Video card generates a lot of heat? Is that what this reckless move? Otherwise, the graphics card fits under the video card with little space (about 1/2 "), for"cooling"air-flow. [I also take steps to improve the cooling] A GENERAL QUESTION: Why computer towers no perforations or louvers on the upper part, as almost all other electronic devices? After all, the heat increase!

Hello Morrismornic, as you inform a model number, it would be difficult to answer the question. However, it is usually best to install the video card in the slot nearest the processor.

These new video cards usually require that one slot but take up two spaces on the motherboard and heatsink / fan is on the lower side of the map, by far the processor. On these cards fans expel air from inside the case and exhaust at the rear vent of the video card and not the inside of the case.

Most of the higher capacity power supplys have a cooling fan at the bottom of the power which draws air to the socket and closes at the back. If there is no fan of down, they would have slots for air to be drawn into the power supply.

Any OEM that I know do not have top of exhaust outlets. They are generally found only in the case of retail sale.

  • place a multiple page (illustrator, eps) graphic

    Hello

    My goal is to insert all the pages of an illustrator (javascript) file into an Indesign document and get a handle on them (so I can spread out on different pages, etc.). This must be done without user intervention.

    I'm looking at the API documentation tried to use the Page place() method, but put up only the first page, it seems (i.e. the returned array has size 1). I noticed that the actual Indesign customer invite you to insert every page of the AI.

    So I repeat the question, how to make a handle on all the pages of the illustrator file (in javascript)?

    Thank you!

    Hello, (I have poor speak English; p)

    I have problem with my Toshiba A200 (PSAE6E). My graphics card Ati MR HD 2400 in Win XP screen 256 MB of Ram, but the Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 parameters only 64 MB of Ram!

    Toshiba a200 - 1 QT
    CPU Core2Duo T5550
    2 GB of Ram
    ATI HD2400 of MR

    Benchmark 3DMark06 HD2400 exceeded my oldest card x 2300, but in the PES parameter he posted 128 MB.

    All that it would be ok, but I can't change the resolution and other configurations?

    Under Vista, is the same.

    Thanks for any help!

    Hello

    The laptop supports the Mobility Radeon X 2400 code name: M72
    It supports 32bit@64MB Local Cache.
    Total video/graphic memory is the sum of the local cache and Hyper memory.

    For example, memory Hyper depending on the installed RAM.
    You would get 256 MB memory hyper if system RAM would be 1024Mo
    2 GB of RAM using hyper memory should be more I think that something about 300 MB.

    Total graphics memory would be so local cache 64MB + ~ 300 MB of memory hyper-~ 364MB of graphics ram

  • Graphic/video card [REPLACEMENT / UPGRADE] on the desktop HP Pavilion - help

    I have the following:

    Desktop HP Pavilion Elite m9152p

    Upgrade to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (updated 11/2009)

    The video card seems to have gone out and tried the following:

    Operating system reinstallation

    Uninstalled & drivers Reinstalled & restoration

    Before attempts above, no changes had been made to software or hardware only led to the same result: the video seems to be fine, and then it crashes and hangs and doesn't eventually having a hard reboot how, the computer loads the integrated video/graphic card.

    I need to buy a replacement video/graphics card, but I'm not sure what card I need to be aware of, or that my computer can handle as a replacement and maybe a possible upgrade (not necessary) - any help in this regard would be most appreciated.

    Thank you!

    I think it's a good choice.

    The comments seem positive most of the time that the fan seems to be quiet.

    I don't know if your previous card had HDMI.

    When you install your new video card, it can disable your sound system because of the HDMI audio chip on the video card.

    If you do not lose your integrated audio system, after you install the video drivers, reboot the machine, go into BIOS, find the onboard audio setting. It can be set to Auto or disabled. Change the setting to "Enabled". Save the configuration when you have made the change and again when you exit the BIOS.

    Upon restart, you will have your on-board audio back.

    Impatience back on your part.

    You need to open your PC and measure the physical dimensions of your diet.  Here is a list of the things to consider:

    1. Specifications
    2. Total power - important
    3. amperage 12 + v - important
    4. Modular - is not required, but I like the flexibility
    5. Warranty

    I managed to find a solution and it could be applicable to other users.

    Step 1: Go to http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/home.aspx and search of your graphics card.

    Step 2: once you find the list, select the suitable driver for windows 7 (WDDM) that are compatible with windows 8.

    Step 3: download. Run it and extract it in a specific folder.

    Step 4: Go to control panel, then system, then Device Manager, then the graphics card, then right click to update device software.

    Step 5: Select Browse my computer for driver software. In the next window, select the folder where you extracted the driver. That will solve the problem.

    For my portable 32-bit with ATI Mobility Radeon X 600, I chose the "ATI Technologies Inc. driver update for MOBILITY RADEON X 600 SE (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM).
