HP Pavilion p6267c

[tguth12]

I would like to upgrade the graphics card in my  HP Pavilion p6267c from the original ATI Radeon HD4350 but am unsure of the space requirements. Any suggestions on a good card in the $200-$250 range?

Your PC has a 300 watt power supply so the below video cards will work:

$50--->NVIDIA GT 430 9.6 GB/s --single slot width

$65--->NVIDIA GT 520 8 GB/s--single slot width

$80--->NVIDIA GT 440 25.6 GB/s--single slot width

$130-->NVIDIA GT 545 43 GB/s--single slot width ---- might be hard to find but perhaps only in the store

$110-->NVIDIA GT 240 1GB DDR5. 54.4 GB/s--single slot width. This card doesn't support DirectX 11 which is optionally used in some of the newer PC games but it is an excellent performer.

Review the NVIDIA performance specifications. Look at the memory bandwidth specifications and the DirectX level support.

I normally don't recommend AMD video cards for PCs with 300 watt power supplies as AMD stipulates 400 watts or more for most of its video cards.

If you would like to use an AMD card or a more powerful Nvidia card. you will need to upgrade your power supply. Forum favorites are the Corsair CX500 or CX600. And longest card you will able to install is about 8.5 or 9 inches, but measure to be sure.
