Replace the video card on Pavilion m9450f - what "s the orphan?

It probably doesn't matter, except that it is driving me crazy.  I just replaced the graphics card on a m9450f.  The original was a GeForce NVidia 9800 GT with 512 MB of memory, I do not know the manufacturer.  The other, a PNY NVidia Geforce GTX 550Ti jumped to the (yay for empty arrays!) and seems to work very well.

Here's the thing.  The old card, in addition to the connection of normal PIN on the bottom and the normal power at the end of the map, a connection two sons near the front of the card on the side not pinned. A twisted pair red and black fell from there on the edge of the motherboard.  I'm unable to find information on what connection did and why he didn't need to do this on the map again, more powerful. I feel that my IKEA futon will collapse because of the surplus allen screw when I finished editing.

Can anyone help?

Hello

The two sons who came from the card would the SPDIF header on the edge of the motherboard.  This allows the motherboard route audio digital HDMI video cards that do not accept no digital audio via the PCI-E slot.

    Hello

    Given that your PC has the GS of NVIDIA 9500 I won't take on your bet. NVIDIA GS9500 replacement program.

    Your PC has a 350 watt power supply which is good, but it doesn't have a PCI-E power 6 connector pins for the video card will be limited to the PCI-E slot power.

    $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 54543 Gbit/s - single slot width - might be difficult to find but perhaps only in the store

    Review the performance of NVIDIA specifications. Look at the specifications of strip memory bandwidth and level of DirectX support.

    The 440 GT might be your best choice.

    An older but great video card is NVIDIA GT 240 1 GB DDR5. This card does not support DirectX 10, which is eventually used in some of the latest PC games but it's a great performer.

  • Upgrade the video card in Pavilion HPE 380t

    Hello

    I want to upgrade the video card in my HPE 380 t, currently it has geforce gtx 260, I want to install a geforce gtx 560 ti or 570.

    I have 2 problems with the viability of this. 1. space. and 2. Food. Has anyone successfully completed a similar upgrade on this system?

    Plug current sys is the following.

    • Intel Core i7 - 930 quad-core [2.8 GHz, 1 MB L2 + 8 MB of cache N3 shared]
    • 12GB DDR3 - 1066 MHz SDRAM [6 DIMMS]
    • 1 TB hard drive 7200 RPM SATA 3 Gb/s of 750Go
    • 1.8 GB NVIDIA Geforce GTX 260 [2 DVI, HDMI and VGA adapters]
    • LightScribe 16 X MAX drive DVD +/-R/RW SuperMulti

    power of 460 wt

    About the food, the psu calculator gives me the following recommendations

    I need my current configuration 529W!

    with a gtx 560 ti , I need 513

    with a gtx 570, I need 577W

    This raises a few questions:

    1. How can my system running on a 460wt power if the power supply calculator recommends 529w (nvidia reccomends a PSU 500w for the gtx 260 which is installed on my machine?)

    2. how the song gtx 560 ti could possibly require less energy than my current gtx 260?

    3. could I move to one of these cards without replacing the power supply? (I'd be willing to lose the dvd/rw drive, this falls 30w)

    4. what someone has updated the PSU in a HPE 380 t? Looks like there is a little extra space, but not much?

    About the video card itself, I am concerned about the space, I looked inside of the case, there is a decent amount of clearance around the gtx 260, but I'd love to hear from someone who has tried to replace this card.

    Specifications for standard cards are:

    gtx 260 courses:

    height: 4,376 inches, length: 10.5 inches, width: double slot

    recommended psu 500w

    GTX 560 ti

    height: 4,376 inches, length: 9 inches, width: double slot

    recommended psu 500w

    GTX 560 ti super clocked

    height: 9.4 inches, length: 11.8 inches, width: double slot

    GTX 570

    height: 4,376 inches, length: 10.5 inches, width: double slot

    recommended psu 550w

    bang for buck the 560 ti superclocked is the best deal, unfortunately they are also the most cumbersome...

    All advice appreciated!

    Hello

    The difference will be the distance between the power supply and the optical bays can be annoying.  Open your PC and do some measure and see if a thumb causes less issues.  Don't forget the extra cable lengths.

    Tip: When you install the new power supply, remove the front cover, lock the optical drive and slide if forward to facilitate the installation of the power supply. Do the PSU upgrade before you get your PC stable before installing new video card.

    These "how-to" HP articles should be useful.

    The OCZ has a bus verses double 12 volts the Corsair with a rail.  There is always a debate about who is best. Both have advantages and disadvantages.  I prefer implementing the only bus.  The really big PSUS, all seem to have several buses. The material of the size of the bus which had to bear the whole of the amperage on a bus would be rather substantial with very large power supplies and there are other reasons.

    Hi Luggiana,

    your laptop is not a true "game system.

    (1) a graphics integrated solution as "Mobile Intel (r) 4 Series Express Chipset Family" is not sufficient for most 3D games. They can work but slowly and far from that possible framerates.

    (2) for most of the games, "available total graphics memory" is a phantom value. The only thing that matters is "dedicated graphics memory. In your case, which is 128 MB. Not bad for older games (2000-2006), but certainly too little for newer games (> 2006). Some games will not work with less than 256/512/1024 MB "dedicated RAM".

    (3) "computer memory" is a minor problem here. The 'shared RAM' will cut certainly some amount of your available RAM total but it won't help in problem gambling, and it is rare to play a game while performing other tasks consuming memory.

    (4) put the games to a flash (SSD) drive is also a strange idea. You will get more benefits if you put your operating system (Windows) on this subject. The operating system must respond to all the interventions of the user and program requests, here the speed is an issue. A game, on the other hand, follows its routines, it must store temporary data much, so relying on a certain minimum of RAM but things like quick / fast writes are not so important.

  • I have a HP p6653w desktop computer and you want to upgrade the video card for gaming. What is the best card that my

    I have a HP p6653w desktop computer. Can I upgrade my video card and what is the best card to get to the games?

    mathenson,

    You can update the video, install any PCIEx16 card video and the new PSU (power supply).

    The general answer is based on the games you play. It is best to search for the site of the game, reading the recommended list 'graphics card '. Then add a little more.

    graphics card comparison site. http://www.hwcompare.com/6232/Radeon-HD-5670-vs-Radeon-HD-6950-2GB/

    Each graphics card is then looked up, noting the length of the card connectors (power cards) required recommended PSU.

    Example: XFX HD6950 2 GB:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150530

    (1) two PCIE 6pin power wires

    (2) card 10 "

    (3) min 500W PSU, if you add up.  Your 250W + card + fresh 200W generals = 600W

    630W PSU will fix the wiring and size http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182200

  • New video card for Pavilion p6565uk

    Hi, the existing card in my HP Pavilion p6565uk desktoprunning Windows 7 (a Nividia GEForce GT230 with technology purevideo HD and 1.5 GB of memory dedictaed) started giving problems with its fan (now more heat and software stops working) I wish to update. I saw the GForce 630 2 GB DDR PCI express announced on Amazon and do not know if it is compatible.  I know that my office has a PSU of 300watts but don't know not what would be an appropriate updated map. The Nividia GeForce GT230 existing provided excellent service for what I use the computer for (some movie edition and normal household usage).

    Please can you advise me to use a proper replacement card.

    In the meantime, I have cleaned the fan and use the computer with the side panel off the coast for additional cooling.

    Thank you

    Hi Steve,.

    Not all 300 Watt power supplies are created equal, and therefore the reason why for the non - OEM GT630 video card manufacturers require more able to provide (350 watts).

    Open the PC and read the label on the power supply.  The amperage for the + 12v bus (rails) must be 20 amperes.  You can see two + 12v amperage if the power supply has two supply rails + 12v.

    The PCI-E slot is rated at 75 watts and 630 GT is close to the maximum power.  It is a call to close, but if you are not hungry video applications, then you should be OK.  If you begin to experience strange system problems and then I go ahead and replace the power supply.

    I normally consider to follow the recommendation of the manufacturer of the video card, but the GT630 is very close.

  • 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.

    Reflections on the GT 630 also are wecome!  The price is what I like most about this card.

    Not really bad news. You can try the graphics card with the stock power supply and see how it goes. If it works... great. If you have any problems with him... pass the power supply to a more powerful unit. Look at the Corsair CX430, the CX500, or the CX500M... If the card gives you problems with the storage unit.

  • Best video card for Pavilion p6 recommendation - 2040 has for balanced performance

    Pavilion P6 - 2040a Desk top. Windows 7 pro 64-bit. 8Gig of ram. NVIDIA GeForce GT 520 Direct X 9

    I would like to know the best balanced video card that will compliment the APU used in my desktop pc Pavilion P6 - 2040 has.

    It is currently equipped with a Nvidia GT 520 graphics card, clearly a very basic card as the Windows partitions are only;

    Graphics card: Desktop for Windows Aero 5.3 performance

    The graphics of games; Business 3D & game performance 6.5

    The other partitions are;

    7.1 PROCESSOR

    7.4 RAM

    HD 7.8

    I'm also surprised that, in light of the A8-3800 AMD APU which has the graphics card AMD Radeon HD 6550 integrated that a Radeon graphics card has not been used.

    Bearing in mind the constraints of the nominal power of 300 watts what would be the best video card I can use it will complete the graphic part of the AMD APU and get a higher rating of Windows and I hope to use Direct X 11

    Thank you very much

    John G

    I must say that I'm quite disappointed with this PC.

    Unmatcheted RAM 4 and 2 gig from different suppliers.

    I found myself buying little ram Corsair.

    Memory locations only 2 and thus limited to 8 GB of ram

    And now a pathetic videocard poorly matched to the APU and piddly 300 Watt power supply.

    Never another product from HP... NEVER

    This will be the most expensive way to buy a PC

    Shame on you, HP and the glib and slick sales guy.

    This machine is on eBay in recent weeks with no interest whatsoever, I'm not surprised and really angry at myself for having been cheated in this thing. Ahhhhhhhhhhh!

  • Food and update video card for Pavilion s5 - 1021p

    I want to upgrade the power supply 270w in my Pavilion s5 - to 500-600w 1021p and replace the graphics card integrated with a Radeon 4650 video card.  Is it possible, given the constraints of size?  Any help is appreciated!

    Hi callen3625,

    According to HP Partsufer, the power supply of your PC is not included because it has a separate part number.  This is also confirmed by the information contained in the library of Services HP partner.  The block of power SUPPLY HP Partsurfer therein is 220 watts.

    Look here in HP Partsurfer for video cards that are used in the new Slimline models with a 220 Watt power supply.  These cards have been made specifically for the HP Slimline PC with a 220 watt power supply.

    Even more recent slimlines are other graphics cards AMD that work with a 220 Watt power supply.  Look here and here.

    Review the specifications of performance ATI and NVIDIA . Look at the specifications of strip memory bandwidth and level of DirectX support.

    You should contact HP support and get a recommendation of the video card or maybe even HP Partsurfer.

  • Pavilion p7 - 1207c: upgrade video card on Pavilion p7 - 1207c

    Hello

    I am wanting to upgrade the integrated graphics card that came with my computer to a GeForce GT 730.

    I already have the card and was plugged into my PCIe x 16 slot and see the fan turns, but neither my BIOS or Windows sees a card plugged into this niche.

    I go into the BIOS to see if I had to activate the crack, but the only option I see is to disable or enable security on the slot. It has already been set to disabled.

    I am at a loss to know recognized, and if more info is needed I am happy to provide.

    Your desktop computer motherboard is pre-UEFI. This means that a video card with a vBIOS EFI will not work.

    Return the video card and find one that allows switching between legacy vBIOS and EFI BIOS. A video card with a legacy vBIOS will also work.

    Check out Sapphire Technology graphics cards. They made a number of card games that have a dual video BIOS that allows switching between UEFI or legacy vBIOS.

    http://www.sapphiretech.com/catapage_pd.asp?cataid=271 & lang = eng

    You can check that by the removal of the video card and starting the Windows machine.  In the search box type in MSINFO. Who calls on system information. Take a look down the list to find the subject that says BIOS mode. to the right you will see what type of BIOS of your motherboard has.
