In any case, I bought about 300.00 worth of new video games and none of them works. they say because of my video card. Then try to buy a new video card and it won't work because I only have a 250 watt power supply. I spoke with a hp technician before you buy a PSU and I was told that my motherboard was only designed to use a 300 watt max power I tried to buy one at best buy and the clerk said 4500 is the smallest they sell. and I need at least a 400 Watt or powerrsupply to make the new video card with a value of buyiong. My questuion is what can I do if I can't buy one more big power supply how can I install a new video casrd? Please help me I'm lost

  Hi chefinomaha,

  Sorry to hear about your frustration. Here's some good news.

  I think you have been misinformed or there was a communication error. Your motherboard should not be limited to the only 300W. I don't know with certainty how high you can go in watts, but you can go higher and should go higher, if you add a video card.

  The important thing is to get the right kind of diet that fits your connectors.

  Here's your motherboard page.

  Here is a document with step-by-step instructions and video for adding a video card.

  Here is a document with the video to replace the power supply.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• HP pavilion p7 1539 ugrade video card and power supply

  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.

• 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.

• 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:

  HP p6180t

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/product?product=4010451&LC=en&cc=us&DLC=en&lang=en&tmp_track_link...

  Intel Core2 Quad 2.83 GHZ

  8.00 GB RAM DDR3

  Vista 64-bit

  Creative Sound Blaster X - Fi Audio Xrteme

  1.5 GB NVIDEA GeForce GT230 [DVI, HDMI, VGA]

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

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16814121446

  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.

• Diablo III runs slow on my pc, not that I need to update my video card and power supply

  I have a HP Pavilion p6523w. I can run diablo 3, but it is extremely slow and I guess that choppy looking. I tried to work with blizzard on the problem, but it's slow going. I have looked and can't find anything concrete, but feel that my video chip can simply don't have the necessary ooomphh. But before I go out and spend money on things I didn't need. I thought someone here might be able to help out me.

  :-)

  Yes - but what happens if you want a better card next year that requires 550W?
  OK this requirements are without physical limits at all - it also depends on what you have changed or that you want to change next to the graphics card - an additional audio card? Other cards? A second HDD? Another drive?

  Just check out what is offered, if you can get a 550W without much more money, then take it. Look for a big fan - he will be more silencer/cooler.
  It will of course make no sense to take a 1000W for an additional card.

  Look at what is offered in your area.
  Maybe Enermax, Thermaltake?

  Check tests of the computer sites.

• New video card and memory for my laptop (1410-604)

  Hello

  I think of a new video card and an extra memory...
  What possibilities I have to upgrade my laptop (Satellite 1410-604).

  I checked my computer technical description:
  I think I can add an extra 256 MB SDRAM. But what video card?

  Koen

  Hello guys

  It s not possible to update the graphics card. You can't compare the desktop with a laptop PC. The graphics card on the laptop is a small chip that attaches to the motherboard.

  On the upgrade memory: you can upgrade the memory maximum. 512 MB (2x256MB). There are 2 slots available and these modules of memory are supported:
  PC2100 128 MB (PA3126U - 1 M 12)
  PC2100 256 MB (PA3127U - 1 M 25)

• Windows blocked key after installing a new video card and hard drive.

  I got a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit edition since the early release, purchased through Newegg. Since then, I used it on my desktop, which I update regularly. I changed the hard drives, processors and cards video several times and reactivated without a problem, but this last Friday, I installed a new video card and the DSS, and when I went to activate windows told me that my key was blocked without any explanation. I can only assume that this is because I changed my hardware configuration. My copy of windows remained only on this computer over the years. Here are the results of MGADiag running on my system.

  If there is any question about the legitimacy of my copy, I have the DVD, booklet, cases, cardboard sleeve he shipped initially and purchase of invoices from Newegg on the spot.

• 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...

• Im trying to install the Nvidia drivers for my new video card and its saying that my operating system (windows vista 64-bit) is not compatible, which means they are 32-bit drivers, it's fake.

  Im trying to install drivers for a Nvidia Geforce GTX 260 on my windows vista 64 bit computer. Every time I have try and start the download, it is said that my driver is not a 64-bit driver, which is false, and that my system is 64 bit, which is true. SO... after I click 'OK', it begins to download only to have another pop-up saying "Setup has detected that the system in use is not windows vista 64 bit" which it is. Basically its contradiction with himself. im confused.

  Im running windows vista 64-bit.

  I just upgraded to a Nvidia 9800GT, to a Nvidia GTX 260.

  In frustration, I deleted all the old drivers, but the new will not download.

  The first error says that the drivers are not 64-bit.

  The second error indicates the operating system is not 64-bit.

• How to get a newer video card?

  Please help me my computer does not support certain videos as screensaver, some movement, internet cards.

  The video is not the cause of the failure to screen saver. and your other elements relate to confused. What do you mean by "certain move" and "internet cards?  What specific problems are you having?

  In general, in a desktop a updated video card can be installed in the proper slot (most often a PCI Express 16 slot on new computers).  Most laptops do not upgrade the video material which is a chip on the motherboard surface mount.  (There are a few rare exceptions with machines high-end multi media, but rare).
