  Best regards, John

  With an older system like the 3000, you will only be able to use the old PCI interface for a video card.  These cards are more expensive and there is no reason to spend too much on an upgrade when dealing with older systems like that. Popular cards have been the 6200 Nvidia 8400 GS or the best 9400 GT.  Do not forget only the PCI interface.  No AGP or PCI Express.

  I'm not sure what your goal is the upgrade, but don't expect too much.  I know that people have upgraded to these cards to play games like the Sims.  Your system is just old with old parties slow and he can't move much faster with a video card.  You have 3 PCI slots on the motherboard.  Put the card into the top slot of most and move all other cards down lower if installed.  You should probably disable your chart integrated through your device manager before installing a video card for it to work and make sure that the first video is correct in the bios.

• Absolutely the best possible upgrade for a Dell Dimension C521 graphics card?

  I've been upgraded to a Dell Dimension C521, that I use as a general computer and play games.

  I know that he will never play in recent games, although with the x 1300 pro that was in it when I got it I have successfully played 2 games or 3 years and more. Runs of Prince of Persia: the forgotten sands, Batman: Arkham Asylum and Darksiders without any problem (all parameters lowish and resolution 800 x 600).

  Since I got it I upgraded the CPU to an AMD Athlon 64 x 2 5600 + (Windsor) and the RAM from 2 GB to 4 GB, which has cost me about £25.

  I really want to update the graphics card to something better than the Radeon x 1300 Pro that I have atm. I am aware that the PSU is only 280W and I need a map of low profile for this machine, although I read Dell generally insufficiently misses their PSUS in any case. All the posts I can find here and elsewhere online seem to be old enough and I wanted to make sure that I had discovered so far had not become outdated.

  So far, I found that the recommended card is the Radeon HD 6570.

  Can anyone suggest something better? If not, can anyone suggest what specific version of the 6570 to get (Sapphire, Asus etc.) and the amount of memory to get with it?

  Thanks in advance.

  Squall88uk

  Can anyone suggest something better?

  XFX R7 240 Low Profile Ready

  30 watts TDP, against 54 watts TDP for the 6570. Faster, too.

  A version of the R7 240 GDDR5 will be even faster, but more money, as well.

• Update the Dell Inspiron 660 graphics card

  I had my Dell Inspiron 660 for a little over a year and am now looking to upgrade the graphics card. It's pretty close to it, but mine works on Windows 7:

  In my opinion, he has a power supply 300 watt, 8 GB of ram, integrated Intel HD graphics card and is the complete Office Tower (not mini). I'm tired of playing games on low heat and would like a card that can handle parameters of medium-high on the games. I could upgrade food if necessary, but would like to keep all of the budget under $ 200. I heard the AMD Radeon 7750 may work with a 300 Watt power supply, but I don't want to take the risk of harming the computer. One of these cards would be suitable for my current setup:

  http://www.Amazon.com/XFX-DisplayPort-PCI-Express-FX775...

  or

  http://www.Amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-1024MB-graphics-01G-...

  Or do I have to switch to a diet that is higher (like this one), and then that the cards would be good under $150?

  http://www.Amazon.com/Corsair-Builder-series-Watt-CX500...

  You can use the 650 GTX because it requires a power supply cable 6 pin that does not have 300 watt POWER supply.  The only one that works is the 7750 HD because it does not require any additional power cling. Your best bet for the game would be to upgrade your power supply.  With the upgrade of the PSU, I will seek to obtain the R7 X 260 HERE.  This is the best you can do for less than $150.

• The Studio XPS 435MT graphics card upgrade

  Hi all

  I have a Dell Studio XPS 435mt with these specs:

  Intel Core I7 2.67 ghz

  6 GB of RAM

  ATI Radeon HD 4570 512 MB graphics card (it's the original one)

  I got nothing so far, but now I want to change the graphics card because I want to play games that require higher performance, I play with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 (1080 p).

  So what do you suggest me? What is the best graphics card can I take, compatible with the studio 435mt?

  I don't want to change the other components (and I mean the PSU in particular) I don't want to change the graphics card.

  So what is the graphics card that pushes the limit of this computer?

  I have another question.

  I bought this computer in Italy and it's because I'm Italian xD.

  Now I'm in Boston for the summer holidays and I would buy the card here. There is a compatibility problem between Italian and American computers?

  I mean the GPU are all the same despite the country or there are a few differences to take into account?

  I'm sorry if I am repetitive, but I don't know if my questions are clear and understandable.

  Thanks for your help!

  I have no budget.

  True, but even once, why would you spend $129 when the same one that costs only $89 HERE at Newegg.  Personally, I wouldn't put a high end as the HD 6970 card in your system, but it is up to you.  For me, just is not there, but I know that others have fact.   Cards more recent performance today they run cooler and are smaller than the last generation.  I know there are people who have put in the hot and power hungry GTX 295 in this system.  If you want a high end card without going overboard, take a look at the HD 6850 and HD 6870.  However, if you have money, you can do whatever you want if you use an i7 processor to go with it.  I'm just a little at low cost.

• Update the Dell Vostro 430 graphics card

  Hi, I have a question about the change in my video card in my old (well, not this old) abandoned Vostro 430. It has a block of power SUPPLY 350 but I bought a GeForce GTX 650 (because who reads the instructions?) who says that it requires a power supply of 400. Can I go out with a 350 for a while until I buy a block of POWER 400 in a month or two from here or I'd end up frying my card?

  Hi WheresThePowerButton,

  As shared earlier, I found a few references online where the users were able to use successfully the GTX 650 with 350W power supply. However, if you run demanding or graphics intensive applications requiring treatment capabilities more heavy system, it will lead to a power load. In such a case, the system could overheat and even stop abruptly for lack of power. The results are uncertain and could cause damage to one of the components including the motherboard, CPU, or hard drive.

  The required power cannot be calculated only video card. It depends also processor, no. memory, hard drives, optical drives connected, internal expansion cards or external peripheral attached to the system. During my research, I found that various manufacturers of power supplies have a tool of calculator of electric supply on their Web sites that you can use to calculate PSU for your system requirements. One such example is here.

  Note: The link above is only for reference purposes. Dell has not tested or subscribed to these tools.

  The power computed by tool is approximate energy required by your system. In my personal experience, I have observed that the power supplies can not operate at 100% efficiency. If we take efficiency PSU to be around 70-75% and that if the tool calculates your condition of approximately 300W system power, need you a power supply at least 300 * 100/75 = 400W. For more information, refer to link here.

  I hope this helps.

• the Compaq Presario CQ3074L graphics card upgrade

  Hello

  I was planning on upgrading my graphics card is ATI Radeon HD 4350 for purposes of games.

  the problem is that I don't know what superior graphics card should I buy that will be compatible with the motherboard, processor and memory Compaq Presario CQ3074L screening.

  I was hoping that if anyone could advice me chart compatible cards.

  Thank you.

  \(^.^)/

  You can go for a VGA card exceeding not power consumption 75 w which is the limitation of PCIe slot. I also recommend the upgrade of power. If the VGA up to 75w (like nVidia GF530 or 540) I would like to go at least 300W PSU and more than 400W or more would be appropriate. Maps on 75W have connector 6 extra pins to provide a separate power to the VGA card.

• Dell Dimension 9200 MAX UPGRADE

  As you can tell a Dell Dimension 9200 is a bit old this generation of computers, but I want max to upgrade my PC and my calculations, when I update this baby to the max, it could perhaps better than PCs today, so most important first question:

  1: can I upgrade my power supply? My current diet only 350w, I am able to pass this to 500w by installing a new? Is it possible to install a new power supply on my PC again? If so, which company is the most reliable?

  Thank you for your help, once this question is answered, I think my PC will be a match munching PC

  Azee123

  Yes, the power supply can be improved to a 500w unit +.

  The Dimension 9200 does not use an exclusive power of Dell, you can install most power supply ATX with a power connector 24 pin or 20 + 4 pin main motherboard and this can be purchased in most local computer stores, or online.

  The 9200 has a rear panel open, a diet with or without the on/off switch can be installed.

  Note: You need a PSU with six SATA power connectors.

  When you buy a power supply, check the manufacturer's warranty, plus better, look for one with a minimum of three years.  Personally, I prefer the Corsair PSU.

• The graphics card upgrade issues...

  I recently bought this graphics card: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=5660536&sku=A271-5774

  Also, I advanced and bought this power supply: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3276573

  I own a HP Pavilion a6414 and this is my first video/graphics card upgrade.  I did a good bit of research and I know that I have the PCI E x 16 appropriate for the card slot and the power SUPPLY 650 Watt PSU to insert in the ATX case. I measure the UAP present btw.  I'm a little worried about the upgrade of the power supply, because I read somewhere (I think it's here on this forum) that some HP tech rep said a person who upgrade the power supply could not be performed on the a6414, but I don't see why not.

  My other concern is about the speed of the processor to the graphics card and possibly voltage problems, but I think the power SUPPLY Ultra PSU will be fine.  Either that it is my first time to play with the graphics card and PSU, I'm looking for advice on the compatibility between these three components, i.e. the model, the card and the power supply.  Any input will be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks in advance...

  I installed everything today and it works like a charm.  I had read so much about the HD 5770 not recognized by HPs and the test of the power supply, but everything worked so far.  I bought a LG LED 20 "monitor today as well, and everything looks great.  Thanks for all the advice guys...  The links you provided helped with Dave BIOS, thanks.

• Dell Dimension 9200 (XPS 410) boot - dead?

  5-year warranty, but it is 5 y 11 months unfortunately >:)

  Data sheet: 2007 Dell Dimension 9200 (XPS 410 United States), Q6600 quad core, 4 GB RAM, 320 GB HD, Windows Vista, graphic of 8600GT 256 MB PCI-E x 16, tv PCI-E x 1 tuner card (do not), Dell LCD 22 monitor ".

  Brief history and prob: weird, early on, the hard drive must Access all seconds for a few years, never understand this. 2011 major problem does not start, fan on max, diagnostic light code that turned out be meaningless... surprisingly reinstallation of the graphics card has helped a bit and fact pc usable again... Mistakes became gradually less severe, it was weird. they tried to say it's a software problem, but this seems unlikely since the restore to factory condition (and the loss of some data) had not helped at all. Next years two ok. Two days ago it started not just and necessary a few reboots. Found this morning frozen on the black screen of Microsoft and had to hold power to turn off. (itself awoke to a windows update then died?) Tried to start, but it froze on the start of the BIOS set up screen, no keyboard no nothing and got the same old code "123" diagnosis, but even when there is no such code. Repeated several times. Tried reinstalling video card about 10 times, including the removal of tv card for its use of non - no and light code now diagnosis '34' are for failure possible extension of the map (not the graphics card... but there aren't any other card it must be the graphics card). No picture monitor at all now...

  Reference dell cruise forums seems to accuse 9200 motherboard...
  Can try to reset the CMOS jumper?

  I wish dell had corrected it when it was in warranty.

  Any ideas? I don't have another card PCI-E PC or graphics to cross check... worth buying another graphic card to try? You want to save pc if possible. Thank you.

  
  

• Dimension 5000 graphics card update.

  Hi, thanks for reading.

  I have the map of X300SE graphics by default for the Dell Dimension 5000 but want to update the map.
  As you may know, the PSU has 305 w and isn't a thing of connector 6 pin.

  I am currently interested in the Sapphire HD 4670 Ultimate Edition but I was wondering if it is compatible.

  Thank you very much.

  Nodame.

  PS - I understand that this is not the right place to post, but I have one last question on the installation of a second hard drive.
  I wonder if the Dimension 5000 is compatible with SATA-II hard drives? It requires no jumpers or is it just plug/install and format and go?

  Thank you very much.

  Hi Nodame. Your manual is HERE. Cards that would take yoiur system are the 9500GT, 9600GT and the map of your after, the ATI 4670. Manufactors overstate the power for their cards a dell underestimate the power in their PSU. With respect to the hard disk, yes a SATA - he's will work in this system, everything that you have to buy is the SATA data cable. An additional power connector should already be in your system. Here is a link to the 4600 series ati.
