HP pavilion 500-164 graphics card

I have found a GPU that I feel would fit the hp pavilion 500-164 considering it does not need an external power connecter. I just don't know for sure if it would fit or get sufficient power as it needs a 300 watt or greater power supply.

Hi,
These HP How-to articles should be helpful.
The NVIDIA 750 is a double wide card you you will need to insert a flat bladed screw driver in the adjacent back panel PCI slot and wiggle it back and forth until it comes free then use a pliers if necessary to finally remove the blank slot panel.

HP Pavilion 500-424 Graphics cards options

I recently bought a HP Pavilion 500-424 and was interested in upgrading the graphics card for gaming purposes and wanted to know which graphics cards are compatible before I purchase a graphics card that doesnt fit or is not able to be used with my computer.

Hi,
No, nothing is compatible because
(a) No video card, it is AMD graphics (combined with the processor),
(b) Processor socket: None (processor is soldered to the motherboard)
http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04453602
That means if you wish to upgrade video "card" you have to upgrade CPU and if you wish to upgrade CPU you have to upgrade motherboard ===> buy a new machine.

HP Pavilion 500-141ea Graphics Card Upgrade

Hey I've treid searching everywhere but I've not found anything on how to improve the graphics card for this computer, can someone tell me or help me find what cards this computer supports? The one that it currently has is fairly bad so I'd be happy to hear most if not all suggestions. (first post btw).

It's cheap because it is old. That is the "4" series with DDR3 memory 512 megs. In the day it was a very good card and will perform as you wish. It does need a 6 pin power supply lead so you need a new power supply. It also awfully long to fit in the space you have to hold it.

Hi,
One of the below MSI NVIDIA GTX 750 models should work.
MSI NVIDIA GTX N750 TI and the MSI GTX N750 TF The "TI" model might be slightly better at gaming.
If you can't find the exact models are NewEgg then try Tiger Direct, Amazon or google.

HP Pavilion 500-164 | What GPU should i get? |

I am not the smartest when it comes to Upgrading a Computer. Recently i got my self a HP Pavilion 500 - 194
HP Pavilion 500-164
So I wanted to upgrade my G-Card without upgrading my Power Supply and Mother Board
I Play games like Garry's Mod and Team fortress 2 , which i can max out but as Gaming progress my PC cant handle it.
I was wondering if anyone would recommend any GPU's that would work with my Computer.It would be also grateful if anyone would tell me problems i will get when inserting my GPU in (if there is any) . Thank you and enjoy the rest of your day

Breezy, welcome to the forum.
Here is a guide that you should read carefully before buying a discrete video card. Your computer has the UEFI BIOS with Secure Boot. All of EVGA and XFX 7000 series cards require the UEFI BIOS. I am not certain about the other manufacturers. You would have to contact their Tech Support for this information.
Now, to find a discrete video card that will work with the existing power supply unit (PSU) is nearly impossible. They would not be much better, if any, than the integrated video. Most mid-level cards require a minimum of 400W to operate properly. Here is a good example. Read the section titled "Specifications". I have seen one MSI card that says it requires a 300W or larger PSU. You have to be aware of the length of the card, also. If you are in doubt if a card will fit into the space provided, you can make a template the size of the card. You should add at least one inch for any additional power connectors.

If the card did not work in another PC, especially if the other PC had a PSU >=500 Watts and both PCIe power connectors were connected, then the card itself is likely to have issues.

HP Pavilion Elite PC Graphics Card upgrading questions.

Hi,
This is my computer http://reviews.cnet.com/desktops/hp-pavilion-elite-e9220y/4505-3118_7-33777303.html, scroll down for the specs. Im a big pc gamer and the graphics card I currently have is good but im looking to push further and get a better one. Mainly looking to get a more powerful graphic card that is compatible with the processor I currently have. If anyone can list me better graphic cards that are compatible please list all of them intill I would need to upgrade my proccesor, Thank you.

Your PC is spec'd with a 300 watt power supply. Unplug your PC and open it up. Read the label on the power supply. What is the total wattage and the 12+ volt amperage? Also, is the slot next to the video card (PCI-E x16 slot) open? The e9920y specifications and motherboard.
If your PC only has a 300 watt power supply, then depending on the 12+ volt amperage you have limited choices of video graphics cards without replacing the power supply. You probably can get the NVIDIA Geforce 220 GT to work but nothing faster. For a gamer, the GT 220 is not the best choice but it's faster than your ATI Radeon HD 4350. At this point, you will need to replace the power supply and install a new video card if your want something faster.
Review the ATI and NVIDIA performance specifications. Look at the memory bandwidth specifications and the DirectX level support.

Hello is there a way i can replace and upgrade my HP Pavilion dv6-6c53cl's graphics card? I would like to play some of the newer games on the market but the graphics card seems to be holding me back. If there isn't a way I can replace it, is there a way to raise it without physically replacing the part?

HP Pavilion G6 - Radeon graphics card issue

Hi all!
I have a HP Pavilion G6-2240SH notebook, that has two graphics card. I'm using Windows 8.1 operating system
The motherboard's graphics card works correctly. But there's a hyper-super other card: Radeon HD 7600M
I tried to use the official driver from HP's site, and other drivers from the official Radeon's site, but it doesn't work.
The operation system tells me that "Windows has stopped this device becouse it has reported problem (Code 43)".
Do you have any idea what could be the problem with my video card?
Thanks...
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi:
On the models with the AMD/Intel switchable graphics, you have to use the graphics driver on the support and driver page for your notebook.
See if this works...
Download and run the driver again from your notebook's support page.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-113258-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
Go to the device manager and click on the problem amd graphics adapter.
Click on the driver tab. Click on Update Driver. Select the browse my computer for driver software method and browse t the driver folder that was created when you ran the file.
That folder will be located in C:\SWSetup\sp59936.
Make sure the include subfolders box is checked and see if the driver installs that way.
If that doesn't work, see if this driver works instead...

Hp pavillion 500-185el graphic card problems after update to windows 8.1

hallo
after i done the Windows 8.1 update my graphic card is giving me some problem.
occasionally my desktop become black for 1-2 seconds and the background disappears.
I've update all drivers.
the problems started after the update to Windows 8.1
graphic card: AMD Radeon HD 8570
driver version: 13.150.102.0
thanks for support

Hey @jdudleyjones ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand the card reader for your notebook is no longer working after updating to Windows 8.1.
You're probably right that it's a driver issue, however just like you I don't know which card reader you're using either.
Can you please tell me which notebook you have? For information on finding your product and model numbers click here: How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
It would also help if you could tell me the Hardware ID for the card reader. Here's how you find it:
Press Windows Key + X
Click Device Manager
Click View at the top and select Show hidden devices.
You will most likely find the card reader listed under Other devices as an Unknown device.
Right click on it and select Properties.
Select the Details tab.
Change the drop down menu to Hardware Ids.
Note down the first ID in the list (as you'll see they're all pretty much the same regarding the Ven_ and Dev_ numbers which is all I need).
Once you've provided this info I should be able to find the drivers for you.
Look forward to hearing back from you!

HP Pavilion p7-1207c graphics card upgrade question

Hi, I currently own a HP Pavilion p7-1207c and I play NBA 2K15 on low settings at 1600x900 and average only about 25 maybe 30 if I get lucky. The card I plan on upgrading to is either the GT 630 or the GT 730. My question is if my motherboard would support either of these cards and will I see a increase of framerates in 2K15? I have tried finding a BIOS update on my computer HP's page, couldn't find any. I was just wondering if the GT 730 would be compatible with my PC.
Thanks!

GarrickLee, welcome to the forum.
There is no BIOS update for the computer. HP doesn't develop them after the computer is over a year old.
Yes, the GT 730 is compatible with your motherboard. However, I can't tell you for certain if it will provide more FPS.
