KT4 Ultra Graphics Card Upgrade

I have a KT4 Ultra with an AthlonXP1800+ and for graphics a nVidia GF4 Ti4600 AGP4X card. Used for watching DVDs, no gaming. Would like to upgrade the card but don't know what the consideration are. The KT4 supports AGP 4X/8X and has six 32-bit PCI slots. I would appreciate it if a kind soul would tell me how to begin looking for an upgrade. Thank you.

hmm... watching DVD, Ti4600 should serve you well. There is not much improvement on DVD unless you're talking a bout HD-DVD format, then probably I'd recommend an upgrade for you. Otherwise, I suggest stay with your Ti4600.

  • Looking for Macbook Graphics Card Upgrade

    Hey,
    I recently saw a Graphics Card Upgrade Kit for a Macbook Pro and was wondering if Apple offers a Graphics Card Upgrade Kit for a Macbook.
    Thanks,
    Nevin

    Welcome to the discsussions!
    The graphics chipset is integrated into the logic board and cannot be replaced or upgraded.
    Are you sure you saw one for the MacBook Pro and not the Mac Pro desktop tower?

  • Slimline s5-1010 - HDMI graphics card upgrade, what graphics cards will work in slimline box?

    Slimline s5-1010 - HDMI graphics card upgrade, what graphics cards will work in slimline box?  Cheap will do, under 100.  Has 1 PCI Express x16, but the slot on back of pc looks about 2" too short for this?

    Hi-
    I think you will find there are more users of the ATI Radeon 9800 that DON'T have a 300w PSU, than those that do. It would leave out the majority of the G4 line if it were absolutely necessary. As I see it, it isn't absolutely necessary, and, it is also the ONLY higher end upgrade graphics card commercially produced for 2x, 4x AGP systems, most of which, DON'T have a 300w PSU.
    My Sawtooth has a 237w PSU, and the 9800, and my processor upgrade, and 2 internal drives, all work just fine!
    As for the piggyback connection, that is how you connect the power to the 9800. A splitter molex cable is used to split power from the superdrive connection, between the superdrive and the 9800.

  • Graphics card upgrade from GeForce 6800 Ultra...

    Can anyone help me out?
    I'm working in Final Cut Studio(FCS 2 in a few weeks wooo!!), Photoshop, AE7, Logic, etc. I'm on a Dual 2.7 G5 w/ 8GB SDRAM. I currently have the GeForce 6800 Ultra DDL card w/ a 23" CinemaHD display.
    I've read a few posts saying that this card is pretty good, however I feel that my system still chugs a bit sometimes, depending on the application I'm in. I've read about the XT 800, ATI radeon 1900, and some others. In my system profiler, it says that I have an AGP bus, so I understand compatibiltiy is an issue, I just don't have an expansive knowledge of graphics displays/setups.
    While I'm still not quite in the market for an 8core, I would still like to max my graphics speed and efficiecy on my current setup. Keep in mind I am close to purchasing a second 23" display as well.
    Those things in mind, can somebody educate me a bit on alternatives/upgrades/options? Although price is always an issue, I would like to exhaust ALL avenues for this situation.
    I'm also anticipating CS3, and new Motion 3 w/3D space to chug my system, so anything I can do to combat this would help.
    Sorry about lack of graphics knowledge, ANY help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks, Zack

    Too add to Mike's response, here are some links to tests with both the 6800 Ultra and the X800:

    Note that the second link contains info on the OEM X850 as well as the retail X800, so read the graphs carefully!

  • MSI P45 Neo-F, GeForce GTX 260 graphic card upgrade (Install resolved)

    Greetings,
    We recently built up starting from an MSI P45-F motherboard and running an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor on XP (we did not choose XP-64 waiting on Windows 7).
    We are attempting to upgrade the graphic card to the PCI express with a GeForce GTX 260 and are encountering a driver download error from Nvidia.
    Problem/Issue: While driver software is downloading, mid-way the screen goes black/blank and a single underscore cursor appears (remains indefinitely).
    We believed it could be a power supply issue as we are running an OCZ tech 600W stealth stream (we are certain there is sufficient amp), but clearly we must disable or uninstall the on-board graphic card (which may be causing a drain?).  We are looking under the Device Manager and unable to identify which is the actual on-board graphics in order to disable. 
    I have attempted to contact MSI directly; however there is a communication problem on my part since I have no idea what I'm doing ($40 bucks to have the card professionally installed is looking like a bargain right now, but think of the fun I will have with the Crysis expansion set on ULTRA).
    One side bar question, not important: I'm running 4 GHz RAM, but only 3.205 is appearing? what is the missing RAM being allocated to at idle (is that to the graphics?)?
    Any assistance you could offer would be greatly appreciated.
    Jay

    Greetings,
    Well - initially the lock up would occur when we started running the Nvidia driver download software.   After booting and performing a system restore (the normal OS load locked up, so we had no choice but to back date).  We then downloaded the driver from Nvidia on to a disk from another computer and started up the upgrading computer in safemode and inserted the disk, same error occurred - halfway through the install download the screen goes blank and stays with under score cursor 20+mins.
    We called Nvida and they claimed there may be may be driver conflict, so we removed all the drivers (with a driver sweep software-we wiped out allllll of the drivers, no problem) and loaded all drivers fresh and brand new. 
    Still same error occurred; We attempted to load the nvidia driver from the website -
    Carefully confirming that
    1.) we have sufficient amps (we calculated 46amps) to cover our build up. 
    *EDIT: IT WAS ACTUALLY 18amps (ALWAYS DOUBLE CHECK YOUR CALCULATIONS)
    2.) we also confirmed the motherboard has the correct slot and we correctly connected the correct (2) power cords. 
    EDIT: THERE IS NO PRIORITY TO CONNECTION, SO JUST BE AWARE THERE ARE TWO PLUGS AND BOTH FIRMLY INSERTED.
    We've called Nvidia and on the 5th time  , we were specifically told that it did not appear that the motherboard and graphic driver are compatible.[/flash] How could that be ??? did they give up???
    EDIT: THEY WERE INCORRECT, THEY DID NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM CORRECTLY.
    gfffffff*   We are just about giving up and preparing to package up the new card and taking the restock charge... 
    EDIT: NEVER GIVE UP!!!

  • Graphic Card Upgrade for HP-Pavilion dv6t-7000

    Hello. I have the HP Pavlilion dv6t-7000 with the NVIDIA GT650M 1GB grpahics card. Now because of my work, i need to extends my graphic card memory. So I want to ask if my laptop is possible to upgrade to GT650M 2GB card.
    My product number is A5F74AV. And my wannary is end on 8/24/2013.
    And this laptop is a gift of my aunt from USA, and I'm living in Viet Nam now. So if yes, can HP Vietnam do the upgrade for me? My aunt's family is very busy so I can't resend my laptop and ask them to return to you.
    Thank you very much!

    Hi:
    The only way to upgrade the video card in your notebook is to replace the entire motherboard which would cost as much as buying a new notebook with better graphics.
    If you had HP do the upgrade, it would probably cost more than buying 2 notebooks with better graphics than yours.

  • Graphics card upgrade for HP Pavilion a1020n

    Hi Everyone! I need to upgrade the Graphics card in my HP Pavilion a1020n for windows 7 Aero or windows 8. i need the graphics card to run Minecraft,Roblox,The Sims 3, Roller coaster tycoon 3, decently. Thanks
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Here are the specs for your HP Pavilion a1020n Desktop Computer and it's PTGD-LA (Goldfish3) motherboard. According to the specs, your computer has no dedicated graphics card expansion slot. The only expansion slots available on this system are three traditional and/or conventional PCI slots. One of these slots currently contains a K56flex modem.
    Here is a selection of PCI graphics cards that may meet your requirements. Please note that these cards may also require you to upgrade your power supply as well.

  • Graphic Card upgrade HP Pavilion Slimlines3420f

    Hey I have a hp pavilion slimline s3420f, and I've graphic problems with games like Resident evil 5, so I want to upgrade the graphic card, but I just dont know which one to buy. I know that I need a low profile one, but I ignore any other specifications.
    thanks

    Hi,
    The main problem you are going to face is your PC only has a 160W Power Supply Unit.  Without upgrading your PSU, you will struggle to find any card that will improve your graphics capability.

  • Processor and graphics card upgrade for hp dc5100 MT(EF633US)

    Can someone kindly tell me a variety of Intel processors and graphic cards which i can install in my pc coz right now i'm using Intel pentium 4 CPU 2.80 GHz and Intel 82915G/GV/910GL express chipset. but i would like to upgrade to a faster processor and a graphics card which can play games which require large graphic memory (eg FIFA 2013,GTA 5.etc)

    Hi:
    Personally, I wouldn't invest the money to upgrade that PC.
    You would be better off getting an off lease newer dc5800 MT or dc7800/dc7900 model that has a PCIe x16 video slot.
    The killer for your model is you can only install a PCI graphics card.
    Very inefficient and pretty expensive for what you get in return.
    After you install the required microcode update, the best processor I know for sure you can install would be the P4 650.
    Below is the link to the quickspecs.  The supported processors are listed on page 7.
    I do not know of anyone who that has installed the 651 or 661 processors and got them to work--even though the specs state they are supported.
    You can try the 651 or 661 and if you do, please let me know if they worked for you.

  • Processor and Graphics Card Upgrade For HP ProBook 4445s

    Hey guys,
    I wanted to ask that  I have a HP4445s with the A6 4400m processor and don't find it enough to play games.
    The processor is a little bit slow and the graphics are kind of horrible for a gamer.
    I feel like upgrading to a new processor.
    The one that  I found nice is the
    AMD FD8350FRHKBOX FX-8350 FX-Series 8-Core Black Edition Processor
    I just wanted to ask whether I could upgrade to this.
    I also wanted to find out that it says that there are no integrated graphics, so does that mean I will have to purchase a new graphic card?
    Thanks,
    Please reply!
    This question was solved.

    That is a desktop processor and will not fit in any laptop. Right now some of the HP Support pages are down but I believe you can install an A10 AMD CPU which would improve the graphics just a little. There is no graphics "card" as you might be thinking of. It is a flat motherboard inside the laptop case with all the chips including video soldered on that board. The video comes from within the processor working with helping chips on the motherboard. An A10 processor provides slightly better graphics but nothing that will increase the gaming potential very much. That is a business laptop for doing Powerpoints and Spreadsheets and maybe watching a youtube video or playing a DVD. It is not a gamer. HP now makes the Omen laptop at about $1500 which would handle most high end games. 

  • Graphic card upgrade on Satellite A60

    My Queston is if there is any possibitity to change my Radeon Mobility 7000 igp of my Satellite A60 for a better card or do i have to by a complete new Mainboard?

    Hello
    This theme was discussed a lot of time in the forum and there is a simply and short answer: No, its not possible to upgrade the graphic card.
    The card is a little chip which is fixed on the mainboard.
    About the motherboard changing: Well, its not very easy because of a exact fitting and compatibility.

  • Graphics card upgrade on my A60?

    Hi,
    I've had an A60 with on-board ATI Raedon 7000 shared memory graphics for over a year and have had ongoing problems with crashing. I seem to have (at least temporarally) resolved this issue by reducing the colours to 16m...
    I am now using some more graphics intensive programs (games) and wonder if anybody can suggest a way of making things like "Age of Empires III" work faster than 1 frame per second (short of buying a desktop)?
    I wouldn't mind upgrading the graphics chip to a card if this is possible but any suggestions would be appreciated!
    Many thanks,
    Paul.

    Hi
    Daniel is right. Its not possible to upgrade the notebook graphic cards.
    The notebook technology is very tricky and you cant compare it wit the desktop PC.
    By the way: The Age of Empires 3 is newer game and to play it you need a high performance pc and graphic card with good cooling system
