• Have I not AMD Radeon HD M 7730 2 GB video card on my new laptop Inspiron 15R?

  Hello

  Last week I received the delivery of Dell, with my new Inspiron 15R laptop.

  I struggled again to learn how to use Windows 8 more comfortably (to be able to perform the same actions/tasks as in Win XP or Win 7), discovered playing around the Panel, in the section of the graphics card, I was surprised and frightened the driver installed is "Intel Graphics 4000.

  I was shocked! I specifically paid for AMD Radeon HD 7730 M 2 GB video card!

  I searched on the driver CD that came with the laptop, I found the driver for AMD Radeon video card. I installed it. Then I disabled the driver Intel Graphics 4000.

  Windows have complained about this version of the AMD Radeon driver, turn it off and turn it on (and of course installed) driver Intel Graphics 4000!

  Question:

  Have I not AMD Radeon HD M 7730 video card in my laptop? Is this a problem of driver on Windows 8, or Dell forgot to put this video card more expensive on my laptop?

  Maybe I'll take a look in the BIOS, it should include all hardware components.

  I can't believe you posted just your device manager, display the map in question . What the hell was all panic.

  I foolishly assumed when you said you looked at graphics cards configuration panel, you mean you couldn't see in the Device Manager.

• Aurora R3 - more Ram/New graphic card

  Hello!

  I bought my R3 in 2011, and it is somehow a necessity of an upgrade. I thought to do more Ram and a new graphics card, because these two can make a difference.

  Right now I'm sitting on 4 GB (2x2gb) RAM and a nVidia GeForce GTX460.

  As far as RAM goes, I thought about getting at least 8 GB, but as long as it's not too expensive I would love to have 16 GB. I also heard that to have a kit of two is better than only one (i.e. 2x4gb instead of an 8).

  Then comes the new graphics. I don't really know what I want here. I'm guessing a GeForce recent would be the best solution, but even then, I'm completely blind here (and I don't know much about computers unfortunately, inside at least).

  I hope someone can help me!

  For the memory upgrade this system manages up to 16 GB running at 1333, 1600 or 1866 MHz, so my recommendation is to use the same ram frequency and the same size in all the modules.

  And on what concerns the video card the more we tested was the Nvidia GTX 590 and on AMD the 6990 we can not assure you if the system will not work properly if you upgrade to any other video card.

• Pavilion NC768AA #ABA: HP Pavilion model. a6719f new video card with the new power supply?

  Hello!

  So, I won money to buy (hopefully) a new video card!

  However, I have a problem.

  I don't know which one to get!

  SO, someone please, please recommend a video card for intermediate level games.

  (My budget is less than $280)

  My PC has stock everything.

  Thus, it was purchased as it was when you would get everything first he.

  Yes, I need also a new power supply that is included with my budget.

  Thank you!

  Revionion, welcome to the forum.

  I'd be happy to help you in your choice.  The main problem is, recent video cards require UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS to legacy.  HP didn't start using UEFI until mid-October 2012.  The latest maps not requiring UEFI were the series GTX 640.  However, MSI has made a card that has a VBIOS hybrid which can operate with a BIOS.  The best thing to do is to choose a video card you like and contact Technical Support from the manufacturer to ensure that it will work on your computer as it is almost 7 years old.  This will save you problems.  They are the experts on their cards.

  I like Corsair power supply units (PSU).  I suggest at least 500W.  This will give you plenty of power for any card that works in your computer.

  If you have any other questions, let me know.  I'll be happy to help you.

• Pavilion P7 - 1050t: update on the Best video card

  Hello, I upgraded my Pavilion P7 - 1050t a G620 processor i7 - 2600S with 8 GB of ram. Then, I want to upgrade to a dedicated video card and a new PSU. The State plug a PCIe x 16 expansion slot does not 2.0 or 3.0. I want to make sure that I get the best card I can get maximum use of. Any suggestions?

  Cgrech79, welcome to the forum.

  New video cards require the UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS / Legacy.  HP didn't start using UEFI until mid - October, 2012.  Your motherboard may not be upgraded in the UEFI.  The last video cards that does not need UEFI were 640 gt.  The PCI Express slot is 1.0 unless it is specified otherwise.  The version 2.0 and 3.0 are backward compatible.

  I suggest that you determine the video card from the manufacturer that you want to buy and contact their Technical Support to help you choose the best card for your motherboard.

  You need to upgrade the power supply (PSU), also.  The current PSU is 250W.  Most newer cards require at least 400W to work properly.  I love Corsair products.  I recommend that you buy a power supply at least 500W.

  Hello:

  There is no graphics removable/replaceable/extendable 'cards' in your noteobook.

  (GPU) graphics cards, are chips that are welded and their circuit integrated on the motherboard.

  The only way to update the graph on your laptop would be to replace the motherboard.

  But as the graphical installation program has your laptop is the best that HP offered for this model, there is no motherboards available with better graphics.

• Question regarding upgrading my video card

  I have a PC HP Media Center m7674n that I bought in 2006. At the time, I upgraded the system to run with an HD ATI X 1950 Pro Video card (I think that a bigger power supply has been added).

  I still love the computer; However, I want to upgrade the video card of a new product from ATI.

  I love the new ATI, in particular ATI HD 5000 series but I'm not sure on how to proceed in accordance

  what might be the needs.

  Thank you.

  Unplug your computer and open it. Clean any dust using a can of compressed air.   Please keep in mind that your PC has good airflow through the air intake and exhaust.  Make sure that all fans of spin. You may run a heat problem.  Remember that you have the latest version of ATI video card driver.

  PC gaming is usually higher end models depending on how intense the game uses the material.  You have an older model of PC, so I have a new one for the game is not too far from the line.  If you go with a new PC then buy one with the largest video card, you can get.  Software game usually specifies the minimum requirements for the OK performance, assuming that no other software is loaded and executed (not the real world).

  A new video card and 2 GB of that memory can rise to $200 - $ 250.

• 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.

  No there is no way to upgrade your video card. This isn't a card at all but just a chip soldered to the motherboard. The video card, you have found and ask the subject for a very expensive high-end gaming machine which has the equivalent of a pci-e slot on the motherboard called MXM laptop. Your laptop has such without crack and no place to plug such a card.

• AMD Radeon HD 6770 M video card drivers

  I went to the AMD Web site to get the dirvers for the video card in my new laptop. They were not compatible and I was sent here to download your drivers. I installed them perfectly worked, but after 2 minutes of a game (Minecraft) that it froze and went into a black screen 1 sec then said the driver was crushed and the crash successfully resolved. I try again to play the game and again the same portfolio of sequence. Please help me!

• Try to upgrade the video card for an Optiplex 7010

  Hi all

  I searched the forums and found answers, but most are about a year old. I have an Optiplex 7010 with the following configuration:

  G1XNT 1 Hard drive, 1 TB, S3, 7.2 K, 512th, SGT-GRDABP

  VT8FP 2 Dual In-Line Memory Module, 4G, 1600, 256 X 64, 8, 240, 2RX8

  D7RF6 1 Processor, IVB, I7-3770, 3.4, 77 w, 4 c, E1

  I realize to update my graphics card, I need to upgrade from my diet, and I'm fine with that. What I really struggle with, is what are the specifications of the motherboard on this computer. I would like to know what my bandwiths PCI-E are on it (IE 1 PCI-E X 16 1 PCI-E X 4?)

  Also, I would get the best graphics card I can get to what will fit (for adobe work). I measured the space and wow is not much... most graphics cards are 10 "long, and the space, it seems to me is only a fight 7.5" before I launch into the box for hard drives. I assumed that I could cut out the box and free up space, but thrilled to hear what others use.

  Also, I noticed there are only two PCI-E ports, but the 2nd is probably useless due to how close his pushed to the bottom of the case so I'm stuck with a 1 GPU option.

  Keep all this in mind and without cutting into the hard drive cages, let me know if this could work:

  GPU: MSI N760 ITX gfx card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127772

  Power: 600w http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817438014 EVGA

  Don't get me wrong, I would like a more powerful GPU (I push 2 monitors 1920 X 1080), but I don't see how I can get whatever it is also gone...

  Feeding okay? It works for that?

  Thanks for all the help and advice that you have!

  Food looks good.  It is only 5.9 "long which is what you want for your snap custom mount you have on this system.  The MSI card is very short, it looks like a good way too.  Your system has a PCIe X 16 2.0 slot for the video card.  Speeds of the lower PCI X 16 slot is connected to X 4.  With only a 250 watt power, this system is all designed for video cards more if two small.  The 760 GTX is a powerful video card.  I see no need to put a video card premium that costs $500 or more in a Dell system.  To do so, make a custom version of a case of nice game for better air flow and cooling.

  Hello

  The NVIDIA GT 240 1 GB DDR5 (if you can find one) or the NVIDIA GT 440 1 GB DDR5 would be a good choice.

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