Upgrades for the 8900 XPS GPU

My machine shipped today and I'm planning a GPU upgrade.  I have currently a 2 GB GTX 750 Ti in my old system and you want to stick with nVidia.  I think I need to go at least to a boost 4 GB GTX 960 or 970 to get a decent life.  Don't want to spend a lot because their architecture Pascal will come out next year...

What power connectors GPU the PSU 8900 comes with?  What upgrades GPU are you thinking, and the stock PSU it will manage?

In general, I think that the graphics card for the 8900 updates will follow what works on the 8700.

Best I can tell, the 8900 has the same power supply as the 8700, and there are six pins of the PCI slots.

Here is a very long list of what has worked and not worked in 8700 s.

http://en.community.Dell.com/support-forums/desktop/f/3515/t/19611037

The cliff notes are THAT GTX 960 will work with the Stock PSU.

Some become GTX 970 s work with the stock power supply, but this is (in my opinion) more load the stock power supply can provide.

I have a 760 GTX, a GTX 770 and a GTX 970 and the 970 is a significantly better graphics, especially with A-list games. The 770 is good but there are still a few tears and artifacts when all the pleasure of the eyes is set to ultra.

If your resolution is 1080 p that the 960 GTX is a good choice for the price of $200, but for the high-end gaming 970 GTX is an update worth it even if the cost of the PSU is taken into account.

  • Pavilion dv7-6157 can be upgraded for the games?

    I bought my son the Pavilion dv7-6157nr two years ago and he has problems with graphics on the high-end gaming, he plays. They freeze or crash. It has 8 G DDR3 SDRam, 2 generation Intel Core i7 2.2 GHz - 3.10 turbo and a radeon HD 6770Ms graphics card. Video memory it says "itchable graphics"... What does that mean?  This computer can evolve in a way that would help the graphics? Y at - it a graphics card or driver upgrade? More graphics memory can be affected?

    I'm tired of hearing that suck laptops.

    Laptops are not really designed or constructed for the high end games. I doubt that adding memory will make much difference. Given that the two most important points (CPU and GPU) cannot be updated easily, it is a losing battle.

    The only other options I can suggest are...

    (1) a HP System Recovery to return the computer to a factory like State

    (2) do a clean install of WIndows 7 and try to use latest drivers for chipset manufacturers

    (3) buy a new computer that exceeds the requirements of game

    If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

  • Necessary upgrade for the games?

    I'm hoping to start playing call of Duty games on my computer dv7-3173nr laptop, and a site that I looked up says that my CPU and GPU simply are not good enough. Is it possible to upgrade so that I can play these games?

    Hello

    Professionally! Basically, you can, with a cost, and I think that this cost can be more expensive than buying a new computer because you have to take into account:

    • New price of the card, and WHERE you can buy it because the laptop cards are not the same office maps. You can't buy any normal store,
    • Need new card system (can be),
    • Need new system of cooling because in general more powerful card pumps out more heat (you want more powerful card don't you?).
    • May need new power supply because your current diet is not suitbale for the card. (I ordered a machine with the Nvidia card and I need to order a 90W charger at the same time, not the normal charger 65W. They rejected just my order.)
    • Cost of the work (I would charge minimum 4hrs to do this, just for work, which equals a $ 960,00).
    • Packages a lot, a lot of aspirin.

    I hope this helps.

  • Processor upgrade for the games.

    I have a Hp envy with a Core i7-4510u Cpu and a GeForce GTX 850 M.

    It works fairly well for the games, but I was wondering if it would be better if I swapped the Cpu for something different, and what models I could exchange it for.

    Hello

    What is your computer? It's a laptop? If so, save the money to buy the new machine because the graphics card for a normal laptop upgrade is impossible bunch of costs, more than buying a new, better machine.

    Kind regards.

    If it's a Windows Anytime Upgrade for Windows 7 Starter to Home Premium, professional or ultimate edition, unfortunately, no..

    Anytime Upgrades can be used only update an existing copy of Windows 7 Starter to a higher edition of Windows 7.

    You need a upgrade license to upgrade to Windows 7.

    Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

    Full version (retail):

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive

    Upgrade version (detail):

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive, but less expensive full version

    OEM System Builder version:

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

    -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

    There is nothing wrong to use it too, especially that all future versions of Windows will be full versions.

  • Upgrade for the WLC code questions

    We 6.0.132 (lastest) WCS and our controllers are on 4.2.130, we now to upgrade to deal with sometimes, but don't want to capwap yet.

    Question 1: what is the last exit LWAPP code?

    Question2:Whats the differences between 4.2.207 (support page for cisco said it's the latest version), but it has same releases with ie 6.0 how it works it is very confusing workout a way to upgrade to higher versions

    See you soon

    Hi Tyrone,

    I'm not an expert on the management of versions, but here are some basic in response details

    at your request

    4.2.207 is the last version on the Train of 4.2 and is without doubt an excellent choice

    If you are avoiding CAPWAP for now. You will see in the link below which

    There are several 'simultaneous' for the WLC Trains (and most of the Cisco product). People

    were not big fans of the first Trains 5.x (quite buggy) and was introduced to CAPWAP

    in 5.2 and the attacker thus is why 4.2.207 seems to be a good choice for you

    In the later version or 5.2 controller software version, Cisco lightweight access points use the IETF control and commissioning of Access Points (CAPWAP) standard protocol to communicate between the controller wireless and other points of light access on the network. Versions software controller before 5.2 use the Lightweight of Point access (LWAPP) Protocol to these communications.

    CAPWAP, which is based on LWAPP, is a standard and interoperable protocol that allows a controller manage a collection of wireless access points. CAPWAP is implemented in version 5.2 software controller for these reasons:

    *

    To provide a path for upgrade of Cisco products that use LWAPP generation Cisco products that use CAPWAP
    *

    To manage RFID readers and similar devices
    *

    To allow controllers to interoperate with third party access points in the future

    LWAPP compatible access points can discover and join a CAPWAP controller, and conversion to a controller of CAPWAP is transparent. For example, the process of discovery of controller and firmware download process when using CAPWAP are the same as when you are using LWAPP. The only exception is for layer 2 deployments, which are not supported by CAPWAP.

    You can deploy CAPWAP and LWAPP controllers on the same network. The CAPWAP compatible software allows access points join to be a controller running CAPWAP-LWAPP. The only exception is the Access Point Cisco Aironet 1140 series, which takes in charge only CAPWAP and joined so only controllers that run CAPWAP. For example, 1130 series access point can reach a controller running CAPWAP or LWAPP considering that access of series 1140 point can join only a controller running CAPWAP.

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/products/ps6366/products_qanda_item09186a008064a991.shtml

    4.2.207 was released on July 24, 2009 which makes the new second version available on any train.

    See you soon!

  • Smartphones blackBerry 4.5 upgrade for the curve

    My said bytes free 34813252... is this correct?

    .77 is old enough for the 8330, I would recommend that you upgrade to the latest version of your provider.

    To kill the GAL, you need to check your free file (Options > status) and make sure that you leave no applications running in the background that you don't need.

    Your hardware is sufficient. Update your drivers and configure them accordingly.
