Upgrade the video card

I have a HP Pavilion h9-1187 windows 64 - bit pc with nvidia GeForce GT 530 by default.  I need to upgrade the video card, but this motherboard has only one of pci express 16 3.0 slot.  Almost all decent video cards require two slots.  I guess that most cards except those in the crossfire, two cards together configuration, must the two slots.  Most of the time, I guess the seller asking two slots due to the space.  Remove the CAP from my pc and possibly void the warranty, can someone tell me what video card width this pc may take.   I have the motherboard COMPANY PEGATRON, the default value.  If you care to recommend a video card decent all 250-300us about feel free.  Thank you. Apologies, but as a newbie I also posted this in the hardware section of the bureau of the forum as well.  I'll delete the entry that is in the wrong part of the forum.

When a card is listed as having "two slots", this means only that he would hold the PCIe x 16 location and regardless of the slot is adjacent. It does not require a connection to more than the PCIe x 16 slot. Looking at the photo below, the long black slit under the "IPMMB-FM" is the PCIe x 16 graphics card slot. "The slot short slot needs to be empty, then the '2 locations' map can adapt it without connection to this.

Almost any card graphics PCIe 2.0, 2.1 or 3.0 will work on your computer. Please look at these PCIe x 16 graphics cards for a selection in your price range. Please see Guide of Dave_G of a discrete video card selection of useful information on the subject.

  • Upgrade the video card on Satellite X 200-20 g

    Hello everyone

    I'll find a way to have my 8700M GT updated on my X 200 laptop.
    I paid for it more than 2000 and I paid for 2 years warranty.
    A few months later, I discovered that some of the new Toshiba are equipped with 9700 m GTS!

    I know that the X 200-20 G is having a mxm graphics card which is removable to be upgraded (not being is not part of the motherboard).

    I couldn't find anywhere in the Toshiba site, where I can ask to buy a new graphics card, or if I can send my laptop and ask for an upgrade price.
    I suppose someone who has paid a sum of money for Toshiba can be listened to, or get a special offer to swap its model to the newest one after even not a year of use.

    I really want to upgrade the video card, and I don't really know where to find advice or information about it, other than on the side of Toshiba.

    Thanks to everyone or admin, to let me know how I should do, or process.

    Kind regards

  • Impossible to upgrade the video card on 810-109 Phoenix Envy

    I bought a new desktop computer (810-109 Phoenix) and wanted to upgrade the video card. The new video card is a Zotac GTX 660. The thing is that the system does not boot with the new video card. I got continuous beeps from the system. I used 6 PCI-E power connector pins. The power suply is expected to support the video card, as it is listed as 600W and it is the wat recommended for the video card. I am runing Windows 8.1 64bits.

    Help, please.

    Hello:

    When you add a video card no HP in a PC provided with W8/8.1, you will need to change 2 settings of the BIOS before installing the card.

    Please read the info on the link below and hopefully that will solve the problem for you.

  • P7-1234 Pavilion: I have a p7-1234 Pavilion and want to upgrade the video card.

    I have a p7-1234 Pavilion and want to upgrade the video card. I am currently the EVGA GeForce GT 610 2048 MB GDDR3. This card will work with it?

    This is a power supply that will work for you:

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16817139048

    It is modular allowing you to use only the necessary cables.  This means that there is more room inside the circulation of air.  He is also a 600W which will give you extra power for the possible future upgrades.  Any block of power SUPPLY Corsair will be good.  They are fans of the quality products for a reasonable price.

  • 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, I have a laptop 15 inch G62 - 348 CA with an AMD M880G with ATI Mobility Radeon HD graphics card 4250, and I know the laptop did not have option property other than the RAM upgrade, but I was wondering if I could switch to something were better I play black ops and others.

    Hello

    It is not possible to upgrade the video card in your laptop, as it is physically soldered to the motherboard and for all practical purposes, is not a replaceable component.

  • Upgrading the video card in dv7-6179us

    Hello, I have a dv7-6179us, and I was wondering if the video card upgrade is possible and what would work as an upgrade. Currently, it has 1 GB AMD Radeon HD 6490 m card. When I run programs for video and photos, I always get the high CPU usage. So I was wondering if upgrading the video card would contribute to this.

    Thank you

    Hello:

    There is no video "cards" in most notebook PC including your own.

    The only way to update the graphics would be to replace the motherboard together with a support, which may have better graphics.

    Graphics of your model is in the upper part of the brand, so the only way to get better graphics performance would be to buy a new laptop with the desired graphic solution.

  • Advice on upgrading the video card in Studio 540

    I just picked up a used Studio 540 and was looking to upgrade the video card without having to buy a new power supply. I do a few games.  Anyone would be able to advise a good card that works in this machine? My budget is $ 150.  I was leaning towards a Sapphire Radeon 7750 brand or possibly a 7770 like this:

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16814202011

    The specifications are the following:

    Studio 540
    Core 2 Quad Q9400 clocked at 2.6 GHz
    8 GB memory
    Hard drive 500 GB
    power SUPPLY 350 watt PSU
    1680 x 1050 resolution

    Thanks in advance.

    You always have a pretty decent system with Quad CPU and 8 GB of memory.  I love the Sapphire of HD7770 you have connected.  As long as you have the PCIe 6-pin power cable on your 350w unit, you should be fine.  It's going to be the best that you can get without taking account of an upgrade of the power supply.  I say go ahead because the 7750 HD is not that much less and the 7770 HD will be best for the games.

  • Advice to upgrade the video card on a6460t

    I have the Intel 2 Quad CPU @ 2.5 GHz, 4 GB of RAM.  I just got Microsoft Flight Simulator software & it tells me I have to update my current video adapter (Intel GMA 3100) to something that is DX10.  I understand that I must keep in mind power, type of available locations & size of the Board of directors when I update.  It's WAY over my head...  Can someone give me some ideas of what the video card upgraded to?  Something under $110?

    Hello

    This is a form oflink to your motherboard .

    a PCIe X 16 video card is what you need.

    Anything on this page should be sufficient. Just look at the specifications to ensure that the card is DX10 compliant, they are all under $ 100.00

    Try to buy only a great brand. (ASUS, XFX, Sparkle)  They actually have web support. I can't guarantee any video cards. They all use reference chipset design approved and provided by ATI or NVIDIA as the case may be.

    Upgrading to a power supply 500W-400 is a good idea. Corsair and OCZ make great PSU. Search the ATX12V v2.2 because this means that it will be all required cables and connectors for video cards available at the modern more (at this time).

  • UPGRADING THE VIDEO CARD

    I have a HP p6367c and I'm looking into upgrading the graphics card have first and finally the hard drive.  My first question is of course the graphics/video card.  Looking at my specs (http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01961291) it is said that it supports DDR3 2 cards working together.  Sounds decent until I look at what support the motherboard and it goes further in detail.  I have a PCI Express X 16 or PCI Express 3 x 1 slot slot.  Then he supported speeds of 1066 MHz PC3-8500 or PC3 6400 800 MHz video cards.

    Now, I admit that I am not a master I.T..  I'm a professional video editor wishing to upgrade the graphics card in my PC to its full potential when adding to an HDMI output if necessary.  Watch sites like TIGER DIRECT, it seems that the best suited cards seems to be (G) DDR3 2 GB PCI Express 3.0, but unfortunately they are all x 16 location.  Can I go out with him on my PC?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello:

    What say the specs, it's that you can use the integrated graphics card (Intel) or an add-in on the map.

    You cannot run them simultaneously.  Add it on the video card will disable the integrated Intel graphics card.

    You should be able to use any PCIe x 16 2.0, 2.1 (I don't know about 3.0 on this old model) video card of your choice, as long as the supply of power of the card needs are 300W, and it doesn't have a PCIe 6-pin supplementary power connector.

  • Can I upgrade the video card in my dm4-2180us?

    I like to play games here and there. My netbook has a good processor and RAM but the video card that came from factory, I cannot play games I like. I would like to upgrade, but I don't know what the map, if any new card can be inserted.

    Hello

    Sorry to say, but it is not possible to change the graphic chip Intel because it is physically soldered to the motherboard and therefore, is not an evolutionary element.

  • Can I upgrade the video card in my Pavilion m6-1045dx?

    The vehicle currently has graphics Intel HD 4000, but I was wondering if, because it is not as fast as it should to play games like the Sims 3, which could be improved. It is a Windows 7 64 bit

    Hello:

    The video card is unable to be upgraded without a complete replacement of the motherboard.

    The cost of making such a replacement would likely exceed the cost of trading or selling your laptop and buy one with the desired graphic solution.

    Below is the link to the service manual.

    Motherboards supported is listed in Chapter 3.

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c03328663.PDF

    Based on the specifications of your laptop, the best video solution is the motherboard with part # 686930-001.

    The cost of this motherboard is $447,45.

    Not worth it, IMO.

  • What are my options to upgrade the video card?

    I have a HP OMNI 200-5380qd ALL-IN-ONE

    I5 760 2.80 GHz (quad) CPU

    6 GB OF RAM

    ATI Radeon HD 5570 1 GB

    Windows 7 64 bit

    Essentially, I play Starcraft 2.  For multiplayer I'm late from time to time, and it boots me out.  I thought that my system was adequate and it was a problem with the internet connection.  So I upgraded my modem and service to 50 Mbps and a new modem Arris TG 852.  Well, it seems to do the trick for a day or two without lag.  But his back.

    I have updated all drivers, cleaned up all the disks, defraged possible, I'm not under the substantive programmes, and other than to have a regular shift with this game, my computer works very well.

    My only guess, is that my video card is the issue.  So if anyone has any other suggestions or has one advises on what the video card, I can switch to it would be much appreciated

    Here are the specifications of your HP Omni 200-5380qd desktop and its Quanta ZN2 (Matadi) motherboard. This computer is a laptop more than desktop in the design, therefore the standard of the shelf graphics cards will not work. It requires a Mobile PCI Express Module (MXM 3.0) graphics card... you will need a new HP card source to ensure the best chance a compatibility. Maps in the specifications are optional;

    GeForce G210 (512 MB) / manufacturer 594505-001 HP

    GeForce GT 230 (1 GB) / manufacturer 608545-001 HP

    GeForce GT 425M (1 GB)

    GeForce GT 425M (2 GB)<--->

    MXM 3.0 ATI (1 GB)<--->

    ATI MXM 3.0 (2 GB) / manufacturer 630586-001 HP

    This will be a costly and difficult to achieve upgrade and can not solve your problem. Most of the other posts on this subject, do not recommend.
