Here are the specs for your HP G5305be Desktop Computer. According to the specs, this model has a PCIe x16 expansion slot for graphics cards and a 300 watt power supply. You will need to replace the power supply with a 500 or 600 watt unit to run the  MSI GTX650 Ti BOOST TWIN FROZR III card. The Corsair CX500 or CX600 come highly recommended and are known to fit most HP consumer computer cases.

  • DVI & ADC video card upgrade???

    What can I get to replace the stock 64mb AGP card (at least I think it is) in my MDD Dual 1.42 machine. I currently run two Acrylic Cinema Displays, a 20" via DVI and a 17" via ADC...
    Is ADC going to limit my options? If so, I can use a second ADC-DVI for the 17" monitor.
    Any help would be great.
    Thanx

    Okay, so it sounds like I should "dump" the ADC idea.
    Then an I looking for a card with 2-DVI or 1-DVI and 1-VGA ???
    I've followed several of your discussions, but still need a little help with the Video Card upgrade education. Flashed cards kind of scare me, but are they okay to use? I don't know if I could tell the difference anyway. Asking a seller on eBay if it is in most cases won't get you anywhere either.
    You've talked about the 7800gs card. Any others I could consider? I've read that some cards don't work in a FW800 MDD machine.

  • Mac pro 8 core 3.1 randomly freezes after video card upgrade

    Hi,
    I just installed an ATI 5770 as a video card upgrade, plugged my new LED cinema display 27 and everything seems to work fine.
    Sometimes though, while working with Aperture I noticed the Mac Pro just freezes, although the mouse works, I cannot do anything and I'm forced to press and hold the power button for a reboot.
    This happended randomly 5 or 6 times in a couple of weeks and only while working with Aperture.
    Any thoughts? Anyone having the same issue?
    Thanks for your reply.
    Guido

    Running Lion or SL?
    Tried holding Shift key down and do a safe boot after those freezes.
    Use Disk Utility from another boot media to repair your drive.
    Do you have enough RAM? is Aperture library on non-boot drive? Does it have 30% or more free? more is better. Same for the boot drive which sholdk be small and 50% free.
    Corrupt library. Corrupt preferences (if there were none before, there likely are now after those hard restarts, to data files and to the disk directories).

  • Video Card Upgrades

    I'm looking to either upgrade or augment the vid display card in my (admittedly) older G5. It was my severance pay from my previous employer, and I still haven't been able to find a job, so my financial resources are a tad limited at the moment.
    I've seen Nvidia Geforce 6600 128mb on Ebay and I was wonder if it's a suitable replacement for the 64mb card I've currently got. ATI is the manufacturer of the existing card.

    Seems like you must have an early G5 but not sure which exact model, but one with AGP 8x.
    There are a number of threads of others asking for video card upgrades. And there is a great hardware resource and database:

    I think there is/was a 6800 Ultra also.

This is all do able for me I just need to know which new card would be compatible with my model of notebook. If anyone knows which one or where I can begin to look for one I would greatly appreciate the info. Thanks!

    Hi:
    The only way you can upgrade the video in your notebook is to replace the entire motherboard with one that has a better video solution.
    However, when you look at chapter 3 of the service manual at the link below, you are already at the top of the mark regarding what video chip is on the available motherboards.

    So, you will either have to live with the status quo or buy a new notebook.

  • Video Card upgrade for HP Pavilion HPE h8-1256s Desktop

    I wanted to upgrade my current graphics card which was an NVIDIA GeForce GT 620, the mother board is a H-Joshua-H61-uATX. I recently bought an EVGA GeForce GTX 750Ti Superclock. I unistalled the old drivers took out the old card, added the new one and when I started up my PC i would recive 3 beeps and a black screen. I did some research and found out that it may be due to the BIOS. There is no BIOS upgrade I can find and my BIOS vers is AMI 7.11, 4/28/2012. I would appreciate a list or a recommendation of compatable Video cards so I do not have to keep buying and installing these devices or if there is a new BIOS update.

    Hi,
    The EVGA 750 will not work with a version 7 BIOS.  Look under Windows 8 for BIOS version 8.19.

    If you are running Windows 7 then I haven't seen a post on this forum indicating if the EVGA 750 will work when the BIOS version 8 is set to legacy mode.

  • PSU and Video card upgrade for HP e9280t

    Hello, I wanted to upgrade my PSU and video card. The PSU I would like to get is the SeaSonic S12II 620 Bronze 620W (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151096&Tpk=17-151-096) but I wasn't sure if my computer could handle and hold the PSU. The video card I would like to get is the EVGA 01G-P3-1561-AR GeForce GTX 560 Ti (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130604) but im not sure if my computer can handle this too. I have a HP Pavilion Elite e9280t CTO Desktop PC (http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/product?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=4066665) can someone please tell me if I can upgrade to the PSU and Video card?

    Stuart, welcome to the forum.
    The truth is, any video card that will run properly with the 300W PSU in the computer, will not be much better than the integrated video.  Most newer mid-level cards require a PSU with a minimum of 400W watts.  I have searched for other members many times without any luck.  If you want to upgrade the PSU, it will give you far more options.

  • K330 Video card upgrade question.

    New to forum and was just about to pull the trigger on a new K330-77471CU (from BB). However, I read a customers comment saying that this unit only had an AGP port, no PCI express slots for upgrading the video card, can this be true??? Does'nt seem possible today.  The desktop overall will fit my needs, but I want to make sure that if I elected to upgrade the video card someday, I could with the latest generation cards. 

    thanks for the reply Duck3. The above desktop is a new release for BB stores and features i3-2100 / 8mgs memory / 1 T HD. Not a high end unit by any means but one that you would think would allow the user to upgrade the integrated vid. card to a dedicated ........ hmmmm , I'm hoping perhaps a rep from Lenovo will jump in and clear this up so I can make a decision on this particular desktop.  I highly doubt our local BB sales rep is going to know the answer to this. These things just hit the shelves here. And yes, the customer was giving his review of the above mentioned model he just purchased.

  • Video Card Upgrade question

    I want to run Apple's new Apature program on my iMac. I currently do not have a video card that will allow me to run this program. Does anyone have any suggestions on the most versitile cost effective card for the G5. I also do a bit of editing and Photoshop.
    iMac G5 1.8   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    Hi,
    The iMac's videocard is soldered onto the mainboard and cannot be removed. Therefor, it can also not be upgraded.
    Sorry to bring you the bad news

  • Video Card Upgrade - A general consensus.

    I have a 2.8x8 Mac Pro (2008). I want to upgrade the standard 2600. I will be using the new grahpics card only in XP, and change the cables back to the 2600 everytime when under OS X. So my question is:
    1. Can I purchase any video card driver-designed for windows XP and expect it to operate normally, under XP? This is a MASSIVE gray area... hard to find sound information.
    2. Some cards (Radeon HD 4870) are designed for the Mac Pro. These have special boxes that indicate Mac compatiblity, and normal box counterparts for the windows market. The cards themselves are identical in every way. Are the normal boxed counterparts actually identical with regard to OS X driver compatibility?
    Couldn't find these answers in concrete on recent posts, so perhaps this can shed light to others wanting to upgrade.
    Thanks,
    Graham

    Yes you can buy a video card that is designed for windows and use it in your Mac pro, for windows. I did this for a while with mine. The only 4870 that will work with your Mac pro is the one from apple, or a flashed one from eBay. The GPUS are similar the difference is that the Mac card has a larger ROM and uses EFI instead of bios.

  • Hp mini 210 1010nr video card upgrade

    i wanted to upgrade the video card? is this possible? also different people tell me i can upgrade to 2 gigs but others say 4g on the laptop? i also wanted to put windows xp professional on it and not use the windows 7 starter....if anyone has a bit if information please help

    Hi:
    2 GB is max on your notebook.
    Here is the processor spec direct from Intel. Note the max memory size is 2 GB.
    http://ark.intel.com/products/42503/Intel-Atom-Processor-N450-(512K-Cache-1_66-GHz)
    You cannot upgrade the video adapter. It is soldered to the motherboard.
    There is only one system board, so there isn't even another motherboard available with better video.
    In order to install XP you need to slipstream the SATA AHCI driver.
    Read this helpful guide below. Read the Intel section. Then use the guide to slipstream all of the drivers.
    http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-Systems-and/SATA-drivers-for-XP-solution-on-0x000000...
    And being the nice guy that I am, I have attached the drivers you need to slipstream to get XP installed.

  • 2007 Aluminum Imac Video Card upgrade

    I asked this before but I think i didnt ask the question correct. I have a 2007 Aluminuim imac.
    I was curious if you could upgrade to the 8800 video card in the latest imac.
    Sorry I was confused.

    Actually the answer is YES, GPU is not integrated on the motherboard, it is a removable standard MXM format GPU.
    Please check out this blog (scroll all the way to the bottom)

    A whole other issue is where to purchase an Apple compatible MXM GPU.

  • Video card upgrade: worthwhile?

    I'm about to upgrade my monitor to the Monoprice 27" CrystalPro (same LG panel as Apple's cinema display, just $600 less), and am wondering if I need to upgrade the video card as well, or if I'll see any difference.
    The current card is an ATI FirePro V3700. 256MB of memory.  It supports 10-bit per channel color, at resolutions up to 2560x1600.
    The monitor is 10-bit color at 2560x1440. 
    I use Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 4.5 for photo editing large files (26 MB, 6000x4000 pixels).
    The processor is an AMD Phenom II X4 965 at 3.4 GHz and I have 8 GB of RAM installed. 
    The motherboard only has PCI-E 2.0 expansion slots, so that may limit the upgrade path to the point that it's not worthwhile.
    Any advice would be much appreciated!

    My system meets the requirements for CS5, though it's no powerhouse.  That's fine, as I'm really just doing minor retouching of photos and prefer to do most of the work in composing with the camera.  I'm almost never using any of the more complex filters or 3D features.
    Just trying to figure out if investing in a much more powerful video card is going to give me a noticeable performance increase.    Is it going to load images and refresh changes better?

  • Pavillion P6-2310 video card upgrade

    I wish to install a better video card in the p6-2310. I have heard that some models will not accept changes in the video and that the power supply may not have the proper connectors. Can someone clarify if a new video card is possible on this paticular machine and perhaps recommend a video card. I was thinking of something like a GeForce GTX 650 or such.
    Thanks in advance, Larry 

    Here are the specs for your HP Pavilion p6-2310 Desktop Computer. According to the specs, this model has a PCI Express x16 (Gen 2.0) graphics card slot and a 300 watt power supply. Please measure along the plane of the PCIe x16 slot to determine the available space for a graphics card. The card you need depends on the space you have and the intended use. You will also need to upgrade the power supply to 500 to 600 watts, The Corsair CX500 and CX600 come highly recommended and are known to fit many HP consumer desktop cases.

  • Options for video card upgrade to quad-core G5?

    What are my options? I bought the powermac quad-core G5 with the base video card (geoforce 6600); now I want to upgrade, but it seems that one cannot buy the other video cards (e.g. geoforce 7800 or quadro fx 4500) on their own, but only as a package with a new powermac. Do I have any options? The ATI X800 looks great but it is an AGP card and the pmac is PCI

    So far I didn't get a card from Apple to upgrade.:-(
    But on the Aperturetricks website, Scott says, that I got an upgrade.
    Don't know how.
