Upgrading Graphic Card (GTX 750 Ti Gaming OC Edition 2048MB) in HP Pavilion p6-2083sc Desktop PC

Hello, This is my computer before upgrading / out of the box Link to specs I bought new graphic card (GTX 750 Ti Gaming OC Edition 2048MB) today. With that I also bought new power supply (Corsair CX600M). I installed them and tried to boot my computer. My computer won't go very far. It shows me the HP starting screen. Then my computer "beeps" one time, then another and then third time. Then I got black screen with blinking underscore. I'm not able to enter bios at that point either, because the computer won't response to my keyboard. No matter what I press nothing happens. I tried to reset motherboard's CMOS (upluggin battery and then putting it back) but it had no effects. I don't know what to do, but the problem is definetaly with the GPU somehow. I changed the old GPU back and left new power supply in place and my computer works well with that setup. Some people from the internet claims that HP might have somehow locked the motherboard so that I'm not able to upgrade my GPU. Is that true or is there something else I need to do? Thank you in advance Best regerdsKivikall

Hello,Firstly, the GTX 750ti officially requires no 6-pin power connector, with a peak power consumption of just 60 watts. (PCI lane can provide 75watts max). reference:http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-750-ti/specifications I have exactly the same problem as you, except with a different video card. The problem is with the new 700 series from nvidia. They only work on motherboards which support UEFI, which is a new type of BIOS, but unfortunately do not support the traditional BIOS. The only way (to the best of my knowledge) is to update your BIOS. However, I checked your system on HP drivers, and unfortunately the are no BIOS updates which would upgrade to UEFI support, which is exactly my situation. The only other solution to buy an equivalent graphics from the 600 series, which supports traditional BIOS. I would recommend this: http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/GTX650E2GD5/ If you do choose to get the GTX 650, make sure you specifically get this one, as its the only card which would work with your power supply. Any others would use too much power for your computer to handle. I really think that Nvidia should issue a notice to warn people with older PCs not to buy the new series of cards, as my new card costed quite a lot and didn't work in the end. I am now looking to get the same card which I recommended to you. Best regards

  • What upgrade graphic card do i need for a early 2008 mac pro

    I have a early 2008 Mac Pro.  ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256 MB is what i have now.  What is a good upgrade graphic card to get.

    The GTX 780 6GB runs fine on the dual PCIe internal power cables -- as does the GTX 680 and Radeon HD 7950. The same can't be said of the GTX TITAN or GTX 780 Ti or Radeon R9 280X -- all of which require an auxiliary power feed to avoid a nasty power down of your tower at the worst moment when too much wattage is demanded of the Mac Pro's factory power supply.
    Did I mention that the GTX 780 with 6GB of GDDR5 matches the 6GB of GDDR5 in the TITAN?
    The one fallacy to my 'sweet spot' award has to do with OpenCL. In case you hadn't noticed, the AMD Radeon GPUs smoked the NVIDIA GeForce GPUs running Photoshop's OpenCL accelerated Iris Blur filter and rendering LuxMark's OpenCL accelerated Room scene.
    - http://www.barefeats.com
    So depends on budget, whether you want a PC card for less but no "early EFI boot screen" prior to drivers loading, and what apps and needs you have.
    The one thing for sure is that 2600XT should have been retired ages ago and even more so with 10.8.3 and above, it could be trouble or just... PITA/POS.

  • Upgrading graphic card on HP DC 8300 CMT

    Dear HP,
    I try to upgrade graphic card, on HP DC 8300 CMT (Intel® Core™ i7-3770 Processor, Intel HD Graphics 4000 )
    with Nvidia Asus GeForce GTX 650 Ti.
    As stock power supply doesnt meet requirements, I installed an additional  FSP Group Booster X5 450W.
    Once I turn PC on, it reboots 3 times, and eventually it continues to use onboard graphic and windows 7 loads as usual .
    like if new graphic card is not present. (not detected by windows)
    Bios version is latest and particular option  for disableing integrated graphic is grayed out- not accessible.
    Is there any explanation why this happens ?
    On DC 8100 sff It automaticaly disabled onboard graphic, altough it was low consumption Radeon HD 7750 Low Profile card, and there was no any problem.
    Regards.

    Hi:
    Unfortunately in most of today's notebooks (including yours), the graphics cannot be upgraded.
    I looked at the service manual for your notebook, and there aren't even any other motherboards with better graphics available.
    You can try the latest drivers from AMD to see if that helps, any but you can't do anything with the hardware.

    Hi:
    Graphics adapters cannot be upgraded simply. 
    You would need to replace the motherboard with one that would have better graphics (if one exists for your model).
    This would cost as much as buying a new notebook, so it is probably not a good idea to undertake such an endeavor.

    The 300 watt is borderline but is within card specs. The 750Ti (3753) max's at 60 watts. You will need a 6pin power supply.
    I changed the Gt 640 in my Envy 810-160 (600W) for a 750Ti with no problems but it did come with a Nvidia card. I put the GT 640 in an e9230f (350 watt) replacing the ATI HD4350.
    In both cases all went well and the cards updates direct from Nvidia.

  • Upgrading graphics card for gaming

    Hi i've been gaming on my pc for a long time now and while it's been fun games have begun to upgrade and my fps has dropped down. I play world of warcraft and i run the lowest resolution 800x600 and the lowest graphics and i get like 20 fps so i want to upgrade my graphics card now, which means i will probably need to upgrade power supply i want it like under 100 USD i've been looking at the r7 240 graphics card but idk if it is compatible. If anyone could give me tips on if that card fits my case or if there is a better graphics card for around the same price would be great. Also which power supply would be needed for the card.

    Thank you for asking here first.  You made a good decision.
    What BIOS does your system have?  If it's version 7, then your stuck with only access to legacy  BIOS cards, not the newest UEFI BIOS cards that requires verision 8.  Second, I'll let you input your system specs, and play around inputting various options at this gamer site.  Look for the "Can I Run It" tab near the top.   Registration is free. You can input various cards and see the performance levels.
    Do not ignore this warning. Call the card maker and ask is that EXACT  model card legacy or UEFI.  The MSI GTX 750 cards do have a slider switch for legacy/UEFI. See this video.  Take the time to make the calls.  I am not promoting ANY card to you, especially because your suggesting a low budget.  At minimum the recommended specs cost $300 plus.

  • 2009 Mac Pro upgrading graphics card to GTX 680 mac. What is the best version of AE and PP and OSX to have?

    Hello,
    I have a 2009 Mac Pro 4.1
    Mac OSX version 10.6.8
    Processor - 2 x 2.26 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
    Memory - 24GB
    Graphics Card - ATI Radeon HD 4870
    I use After Effects and Premiere Pro daily for my work. I am not too technically minded. I want to update and improve my machine as much as possible and am thinking of buying an SSD drive to replace my current start up disk. I also am thinking about getting the GTX 680 mac version graphics card. I have read many online discussions regarding OpenCL and CUDA, many discussions with mixed feelings about the improvements the 680 gives an older Mac Pro - some people say it is amazing others say the improvements seem minimal or worse.
    What I want to know is if I purchase the SSD and 680 graphics card what is the optimal OSX - 10.8 or 10.9? and what is the optimal versions of AE and PP to have - CS6 or CC? Also what settings and what additional drivers would I need to consider?
    I contacted an independent authorised mac reseller and he thought it was a bad idea to put a new graphics card and get the latest OSX in an old machine and tried to sell me a used 2010 Mac Pro, but I think it would be more cost effective to get the SSD and 680 instead, it's just I read the occasional horror story on a forum and I worry about making the wrong choice, I rely on my Mac Pro to make a living!
    Thanks in advance

    Thank you for the valuable information Eric, I think I will go with the 680 but I understand that it wont be fully utilised on my old Mac Pro.
    Perhaps I will replace my startup/applications hard drive with a 480GB SSD. My other 3 bays are full with 3 x 2TB Hard drives that have media on them so I have no spare room for a dedicated SSD drive for AE cache. But could I put a 250GB SSD into one of the PCI-E slots using something like - SSD SuperSpeed Upgrade Kit for Apple Mac Pro 2008 2009 2010 2012 | eBay
    Would this be my best solution? Is it a relatively simple installation, does anyone have any experience of a similar setup?
    cc_merchant, thank you for the reply, I am aware you have to pay monthly payments for CC, that is no problem.

  • Problem with upgrading Graphics Card from GTX 635 to GTX 960

    Greetings,
    I'm new to upgrading hardware in computers but have decided that I wanted to upgrade my graphics card in my HP Envy 700 - 329 (Nvidia GTX 635) to an Nvidia GTX 635. The only problem is I have never opened a computer and have no idea what cable to put where or how to take my old Graphics Card out to put my new one in, and I'm very worried because I might mess up.  Is there any video tutorial/ guide out there that is convinient to my desktop for me to upgrade?
    Thanks,
    Marwan
    P.S. Is the space in the Envy 700-329 large enough for the GTX 960?

    Hi there 
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, both from other users, HP experts and other support personnel. I understand that you are looking at upgrading your internal video adapter from a Nvidia GTX 635 to a Nvidia GTX 690. I am happy to help with this. FIrst thing, you must be aware of before you buy any video adapter upgrade, is the power requirements of the card, the recommended minimum output for the computer's power supply,  the size of the card, the required expansion slot type, and the type of power connectors that must be available for the card from your system power supply. Starting with a comparison of the card you have with the one you are thinking to install:GeForce GT 635 (OEM) Specifications - www.geforce.comBus Support - PCI-E 3.0 Height 2.731 inchesLength 5.70 inchesslotWidth SingleMaximum Graphics Card Power (W)  35W GeForce GTX 690 Specifications - www.geforce.comBus Support - PCI Express 3.0Height 4.776 inchesLength 11.0 inchesslotWidth Dual-slotMaximum Graphics Card Power (W)               300WMinimum System Power Requirement (W) 650WSupplementary Power Connectors                Two 8-pin Your computer has the following:
    Power Supply Internal Total wattage: 460W  - too lowDimensions: 150mm x 140mm x 86mm (5.9 x 5.5 x 3.4 inches) I have highlighted the items you will need to be aware of in red, before trying to install this card. Because the stock power supply is 460W, it will also need to be replaced, because the card requires that your power supply meet a minimum output of 650W, and that power supply needs to also have two 8-pin supplementary power connectors. I included the dimensions of your current power supply so you have a guide to the type of space you have and form of the power supply to help with finding something that will fit in that space. Also I highlighted the fact that the card you are looking at is significantly larger in all dimensions, so you can make sure it will fit inside the case or have an idea of what cabling may need to be moved, and because it is a dual-slot width, it may block another slot on your main board. Because of all of these issues you may want to consider talking to a local computer tech or a tech savvy friend to help you with this, and maybe save some money as well. I did not include the instructions on how to replace the card itself, because of the other issues, which you will need to check on first. I hope this helps, or does not confuse the matter more, but reading your post I realized you were probably not aware of these little roadblocks.

  • Upgrading graphics card problem, GTX 660, IPISB-CH2 Motherboard

    I want to upgrade my graphics card from a radeon 6850. I have a 600W EVGA PSU. My motherboard is a ipisb-ch2 (chicago). Yes it is 
    According to this website: http://www.pc-specs.com/mobo/HP/HP_IPISB-CH2_%28Chicago%29/1627/Compatible_GPUs, the GTX 660 is compatible. However my gigabyte  GV-N660OC-3GD card does not work.
    I get single beep after seeing the HP screen and that's it. Yes it is connected correctly. Is this computer simply impossible to upgrade?

    Hello @Ticklebumps,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
    I have read your post on how your desktop is experiencing an issue with upgrading the graphics card, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
    Since you mentioned that the power connections are properly hooked up between the graphics card and the power supply, I recommend removing the GPU and search for any potential BIOS updates for your computer. This can be done by following this resource on Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 7), as well as Updating the BIOS.
    If the GPU is still not recognizable by your system, then the card is likely not going to work.
    I hope this helps!

  • Satellite A100-207: Is it possible to upgrade graphic card for gaming

    Hi
    I am looking to buy the Toshiba A100-207 laptop and it comes with 128MB of shared graphics.
    I would like to play games and I was wondering if I could upgrade the graphics (such as a nvidia card that I could buy and put in) or are the graphics fixed?
    I would just like to know if I am able to upgrade?
    Thankyou

    Hi
    In my opinion the graphic card and/or the CPU is not soldered on the new notebook generation. The parts should be simply plugged on the board.
    But this does not change the upgrade situation.
    Possibly you will be able to remove the graphic card but Im sure you will get compatibility problems with other hardware.
    The stronger graphic card produces more warmness and the temperature would increases automatically to a higher level. This would lead to the overheating issue and the notebook would either shut down or not starts.
    The desktop PC technology is simply different as on the notebooks. You can also not compare the different graphic cards. Notebook manufactures uses only the graphic card chips which dont supports an own cooling module.
    Simply said its not possible to upgrade the graphic card.

Maybe you are looking for
