HP 6654 upgrade video card/power supply

I am interested in upgrading my video card from a current ATI Radeon HD 4200 to a "EVGA GeForce GTX 960 SuperSC ACX 2.0+ 2GB GDDR5 128bit, PCI-E 3.0 Dual-Link DVI-I, 3 x DP, HDMI, SLI, HDCP, G-SYNC Ready Graphics Cards 02G-P4-2966-KR".  Will this graphics card fit for my cpu and work correctly with the motherboard?
I will be adding 4additional giggabites to increase the total instaled memory (RAM) to 8GB as well.
And in addition, i will purchase a 400 watt power supply.
Will this work for my current Pavilion 6654?
Thanks!

You are very welcome!  Thank you for the additional information.
As I suspected, your computer has a standard BIOS.  This means that you will have to buy an older video card.  I like EVGA products.  I suggest finding a card that you like and contacting the manufacturer's Tech Support (EVGA Tech Support 1-888-880-3842) to make certain that it will work in your computer.  This is the best way that I have found to not have to make a return.  The last card that EVGA made that used a standard BIOS was their GT 640.  Some of theirs do have an update for the VBIOS that allows them to run with a standard BIOS.
Now, for the power supply unit (PSU).  I like Corsair products.  I normally recommend at least 500W.  This allows for future upgrades.  A modular PSU is good for smaller cases.  You only have to use the cables that are necessary, allowing for better airflow.  You should measure the existing PSU and compare the measurements to the one that you choose.  All of the connectors should be compatible.

  • Upgrading graphics card & power supply in a new P6674y

    I just purchased a new Hp 6674y computer and wanted to upgrade the video card.  Reading here on the forums I got some good ideas for video cards for comparable computers to mine and also found out the power supply is going to need to be upgraded also.  My question is, can anyone tell me if there is a specific size, type or model of power supply that my particular model MUST use?  Or can I get a "standard" ATX 12v 600w or so, and replace it.  Also will an EVGA Nvidia GTX 460 graphics card fit into this case?  Thanks in advance for the help!

    Hi,
    A standard size ATX will fit.  I am using the GTX 460 1 GB in one of my PCs (e9280t) which has nearly the same cabinet as your PC.  I bought a Corsair HX 650 but there are other choices.

    How to replace a video card.
    You should open up your PC and measure the physical dimensions of your power supply.  Here is a list of things to consider:
    Specifications
    Total wattage - important
    12+ volt amperage rating - important
    Modular - not mandatory but I like the flexibility
    Warranty
    i7 and SLI ready
    Efficiency rating
    Cost
    Physical size -- standard ATX PSU is 5.5" by 5.9" by 3.4" give or take a few tenths
    www.newegg.com has lots of PSUs choices.  Corsair, OCZ, Rosewill, Thermaltake.....

  • M57 video card/power supply options

    ***Note: I have read virtually every post regarding video cards for this PC, and with this newer BIOS, I thought it best to see if things have changed after newest BIOS update***
       About 2 weeks ago, I bought a SFF M57-6072 at a large internet store. I bought the PC for my wife, who may watch a movie, or play a couple of FPS games (Far Cry is probably the most video intensive game).
        I was delighted at the price, and the fact it had a PCI-E slot. I knew I was pushing the limit of the 280W power supply, but I tried to install a Radeon HD 6450 (which does not require additional power). I could not get the card to work, so I was back to looking at options.
        I upped the memory to 4gig, and flashed the BIOS to the latest (2RKT64BUS dated 1-8-14). and for giggles, tried the HD 6450 again, with no joy. I was a little miffed that the only note for the latest BIOS is "improve boot time". That seems rather cheesy to me, and it's almost impossible to find out what the prior BIOS updates may have fixed.
       Another problem is, I'm having a lot of difficulty finding out if the stock 280W PS is a standard, or a proprietary PS, and only replaceable by certain types. If I can, I'll switch the motherboard out to a larger case, and use a 500W or better PS, and hopefully would gain the chance at using my HD 6450. Again, I'm running into a brick wall trying to figure out if it may or may not work. While I realize this was a workstation PC, I still have problems understanding why so few video cards would be compatible.. so here I am.
       If you have tried and failed with a video on this PC, please note it here (not only for myself, but future readers of this forum). If you know that my moving the motherboard to a larger case is doable, please let me know.. as I have 3 more video cards that I can test, but they are not low profile. If I get to that stage, I will post those cards and the results. Just FYI, the cards I have yet to try are:
        BFG 9800 GTX+
        Radeon X700
        Geforce GT 460
    Thanks

    Update 26 May 14:
    I installed the Galaxy GT 610 with no issues. I tested the computer for about 2 hours with heavy usage to see if the PS could hold the load. Since the GT 610 only has a small fan, and no external power is needed, I had no issues with BSOD or otherwise.
    I ran FutureMarks3DMark Vantage and 3DMark11 and received scores of P1907 and P588. Mostly stuttering on the tests (they are HEAVY benchmark tests), I was really trying to see if the system would hold in and not fold (BSOD). No failures.
    I installed Far Cry, and tested it starting with minimum specs, then wound up using HIGH settings for everything across the board, and it runs smooth. No rippling/tearing, stutters or video anomolies. I was so surprised, I thought.. hmm.. CRYSIS!?!  Unfortunately, I couldn't read the disk and will have to replace my DVDrom before going that far. I will post my results for Crysis after getting my DVD situation fixed.

  • HP H8-1020 - Upgrading graphics card/power supply

    Hey,
    Looking to give my almost 5 year old PC a much needed graphics card boost. As mentioned in the title, I have a HP h8-1020. After reading other posts from users on this forum, It seems that the power supply provided with this model (300W) is completely insufficient for any new, decent graphics card.
    I also use a 27 inch Samsung S27D360 Monitor.
    I read that some people used the corsair CX500/600 with a Nvidia GT X series (2Gb) card as a suitable upgrade. However I don't know much about power supplies or performance graphics cards.  I'm not looking for an absolute top of the line card, just one that can run most modern high-intensity graphics games. I'm hoping for a price range of about $100 for the power supply, and no more than $200 for the graphics card.
    Here are some of the games that I would like to run on high - max settings (preferably in 1920x1080):
    Diablo 3
    Skyrim
    Grand Theft Auto V
    The Elder Scrolls: Online
    Any help with suggestions for a new power supply/graphics card would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Hi,
    The Corsair CX600 would be a good choice for a power supply as would the Corsair CS650m.
    You have an older PC which usually requires an older generation graphics cards.  The NVIDIA GTX 660 would be a good choice.
    ZOTAC makes a number of graphics cards that are compatible back to PCI-E version 1.1.  Model  ZT-90101-10P is compatible back to PCI-E version 1.1 and is available at Best Buy.
    Know what the return policy is before you buy.

  • Upgrade video card for compaq S6000CL

    How can I upgrade my video card on my compaq S6000CL?  I have vista installed (upgrade).  I'd like to download the upgraded video card software and not have to replace the whole video card.
    Thanks!

    Hi pilot3579,
    So, in looking at the specifications for your computer (Compaq Presario S6000CL Desktop PC support), it appears you might have to get a video card in order to enhance your graphics. Your computer came with integrated graphics, and though there is one video driver available on your computer, it can only be downloaded with the originally installed Windows XP operating system still in place. I know that's not exactly what you wanted to hear, but that is the situation you are looking at.

  • Upgrade video card for Late 2005 PowerMac G5

    I am looking for an upgrade video card for a Late 2005 PowerMac G5, which has the PCI-Express slots. I need at least 256 MB of VRAM.
    Since this computer is a discontinued model, there doesn't seem to be too many options for video cards. I've seen some cards like the NVidia 6600 or 6800, or even ATI's X800, but they appear to be difficult to find.
    The one card that is readily available still is the ATI X1900, which looks great, but a little on the pricey side ($349).
    I did notice the NVidia 7300 GT, which is more moderately priced ($145), but it only mentions being an upgrade card for the Mac Pro. Will this also work with the PowerMac G5 (Late 2005) model? I would hate to buy this video card and then find out that it won't work.

    The only available upgrade card for the Late 2005 G5s is the X1900GT (aka G5 Edition). It's basically on par with the nVidia 7800GT that was available as a BTO option.
    You can get the 7800GT and QuadroFX 4500 as replacement parts, but they're exorbitantly priced.
    The Mac Pro cards won't work (even though they're also PCI-Express) due to the ROM on the card. It's only setup to work with the Mac Pro's EFI boot system and doesn't have the necessary code to work with the PowerMac's Open Firmware boot system.

  • So im about to buy a mac pro, I just need help cause im not sure if it's worth paying more for instance, a hi-res screen compared to the stock screen, and will i really miss the .2 ghz and the upgraded video card if I get the 2.0 ghz mbp?

    It appears the 15" 2.2 ghz isn't worth spending $400 more for, but you get the 1GB Radeon 6750M that has four times the VRAM than the 15" 2.0Ghz model and about 167% more performance. High settings on all current games with over 50 fps.
    If your not into 3D gaming or just light weight, then the 2.0 Ghz (last years performance) will suffice on low-medium settings at about 30 fps.
    The 13" is rather poor as it has integrated graphics. 30 fps on only some games.
    The high res screen is a excellent choice and the anti-glare is great for viewing just about anywhere.
    No messy films to replace at $30-$40 a pop.
    A lot of people bring the glossy screens back once they hear about the anti-glare.

    Here's my 17"
    In my opinion the extra $400 for another 2-3 years of use out of the computer is worth it.
    Quad cores are more than enough for most uses for most people for many years, it's just a slow card is going to make the machine feel slow in rendering graphics in the future.

  • Help! Card Power Supply wanted!

    Dear all,
    My Power Book G3 (bought in 1999) has collapsed. In October 2006 (note, 2 1/2 months ago) I switched it on and felt a bad smell ... a strange noise and after it it was "dead". I took it to the seller (in the meantime they changed a lot their organization) and now they are telling me what follows:
    "The code of the spare part broken is
    Card Power Supply - 661-2029
    Unfortunately it's not possible to submit you an offer for repairing the machine since the part is no more in the Apple catalogue.
    We don't guarantee anyway that even by substituting the part your machine can work again since Power Book G3 is out the Apple Support and therefore it's not possible to check it".
    I've asked them to give me back my G3.
    My idea is
    - to find out if there is a way to find somewhere this Card Power Supply.
    It's not necessary to tell you how much I am affectionate to my "baby".
    Can someone help me?
    Since the machine is still at the Apple Shop I can't tell you for the time being what family it belongs to, anyway as soon as I have it back I'll post other technical info about the model.
    THANK YOU 2K!!!!!!!!

    In the US, " No new parts are available any more" is exactly what Apple would tell you.
    There are other vendors who repair MacBooks and PowerBooks. Used parts are plentiful, since some of these machines die and the remaining good parts are sold.
    This vendor sells used and some new parts, and also has illustrated guides to how to repair.

    I am sure there are vendors in Italy who offer repair services for older PowerBooks. Since the parts are not new, warranties may be only a month or two instead of a year.

    Sorry for the long copy and paste. I read that I can upgrade the video card and power supply. But atm when I play world of warcraft at ultra settings, I tend to lag really bad in the new instances with the new cat expansion that came out. I wanted to know if I should upgrade the video card and power supply for better performance or just upgrade my whole pc tower.  Fyi, I am running a Acer X243w lcd flat panel monitor if that helps too.

    My brother has a high end laptop with a built in, high end gaming video card (I forget which one). He's able to run the game on full-on Ultra. 
    I have an integrated video card which games the game on.. 'cartoon'.. mode. It's lower then low. When someone shoots a powerful spell at me, I go into a DOS Prompt. (not really, but it's pretty bad).
    Funny thing is, I can still kick my brother's butt in any PVP match he wants to set up. 
    But I guess his graphics are pretty....
    As for which video card works best, I'd have to do some research. After that graphics update they did with CAT,  it's kind of a toss up again.

  • E30 power supply/cables and upgrading video card.

    I'm thinking of buying a decent gaming card, but I can't seem to find any power cables inside my system. The video card I'm looking at has a six pin connector on it. Also, just in case I need to upgrade the power supply, is the power supply unit standard ATX?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    welcome to the forum!
    the E30 doesn't come with a PCI power connector due to it only being qualified to run the quadro NVS, 400, 600, and 2000/2000D workstation graphics cards.   you would need a different PSU entirely.   due to warranty and support reasons we can't recommend aftermarket PSUs in this system.
    besides, depending on the GPU you're considering, the E30 might not have sufficient airflow to support it.   these are workstations after all and not gaming systems.
    similar advice was given to another E30 owner in this thread.   i'm not sure what makes the E30 such a compelling gaming platform but to each their own.

  • Power Mac G5 dual 2.0ghz (late june 2004) - trouble upgrading video card

    Hi, I'd really appreciate any help. I have a PowerPC G5 Tower, dual 2.0 GHz, DVI/AGP version (June 2004 model) with 8gb ram. I recently got the Apple 30" monitor and wanted to run it along side my 20" apple monitor, so I bought the ATI Radeon 9650 dual dvi video card (ATI-G5-9650 Power Mac G5 ATI Radeon 9650 Supports 30" Display 256MB (DVI/DVI) (8X AGP) Video Card). I pulled out my previous video card from the AGP slot and inserted this one into the same slot. I turned on the machine and plugged in both monitors to the dvi ports and both screens were blank when I booted. I tried plugging in only one of the monitors, but again, just blank. Does this mean the card is bad? Did I put it in the right slot?
    Any advice would be helpful. Thanks

    I'm installed an update, not 100% if it was the correc thing to update, but it was all I could find. I went to the ATI site and downloaded the ATI Displays 4.5.7.dmg and installed that as well as the ATI 10.3.6 SW Update.dmg. This was from the ATI site at: http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.HTML
    Is there another place or something specific for the 9650 that I need to download?

  • Upgrading video card Mac Mini 1.42 GHz Power PC G4????

    Hi there......
    I was just wondering could anyone give me a hand with upgrading a video card on my Mac MIni......
    Would there be chance to replace my existing video card:
    Chipset Model: ATY,RV280
    Type: Display
    Bus: AGP
    VRAM (Total): 32 MB
    Vendor: ATI (0x1002)

    Depth: 32-bit Color
    Core Image: Not Supported
    Main Display: Yes
    Mirror: Off
    Online: Yes
    Quartz Extreme: Supported
    Rotation: Supported.................,,,,,,,,, with a newer one.....
    If that is possible, which video card should I get........
    Also is VRAM (Total): 32 MB same as DDR memory 32 MB , because I checked some stuff on E-bay and they got:
    ATI 100436011 Radeon 9200 MAC Edition PCI
    (mfr. number: 100-436011) DDR 128 MB.....,,, but I'm not sure what to use........
    Ant help would be appreciated......
    Thanks in advance.....

    And the reason for this is because the graphics chipset is integrated into the mainboard and cannot be separated from it. The same applies with video memory. If you're looking for a heavy-duty gaming machine, head on up to the iMac or the new Mac Pro, because even the new Intel Mini has integrated graphics.

  • Upgrade video card Touch smart 600

      HP touchsmart600-1390 I would like to upgrade the video card.  Is this possible/ and do i have to upgrade the power supply as well?   The present card is GT 230 Invidia 1GB memory.  Thanks!

    Hello @Enterprise1,
    I understand that you are looking to upgrade the graphics card in your HP TouchSmart 600-1390 Desktop PC and are wondering if you need to upgrade your power supply as well.  I do not believe that you will have any issues with your power supply as your current graphics card is a PCIe nVidia GeForce GT 230 1GB (Scorpius) graphics card. According to the HP TouchSmart 600-1390 Desktop PC Product Specifications page you have a 150W (100V-240V) power supply and according to the wikipedia page Mobile PCI Express Module, which illustrates the power requirements of a MXM graphics card your current power supply is more than sufficient to power any MXM graphics card you my purchase.
    I hope this help. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Do I Need To Upgrade Video Card for ACD 20" for the PowerPC G4

    Hello,
    I am extremely new to the MAC world so forgive my ignorance. I have a 450Mhz Power PC G4 running a 20gb harddrive. I recently bought the ACD 20" and when I tried to "plug and pray" the display came on for the initial "Apple" screen but when it came time to boot into the OS I got a black screen. I am running OS 10 Tiger and I have AGP graphics. From what I can discern I have a "ATY, Rage 128 Pro".
    I read from another posting that the G4s that have the analog and digital video cards need to be upgraded. My question: Is there an upgradable solution for my system and if so what is it? Please say yes!!! LOL
    Thanks
