pavilion 500-319na
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi all I want to upgrade to a 2gb graphics card but the ones I have looked at require a 500w psu but the psu on this pc is only 180w.

My question is are there any 2gb graphic cards that will run on this pc or can this pc be upgraded to a 500w psu, if so can anyone recommend a suitable psu.

 

Thanks

 

Pc is HP Pavillion 500-319na

@cowieloon,

Your title said 500-319ns, your ending said 500-319na........wondering, but I picked 319na.

While offering a reply, when  I see this vague type of question, I would ask this.   What card and why?

Selecting just any card?  Is there a specific game(s) level you what to attain? 

A problem arises from HP website.  Is your unit an internal PSU or external brick?  That model states external, but the page has been known to be wrong.

This site is excellent for determining what CPU (you have an I-5), GPU, and RAM you need for specific games.

 

If all of the above is answer and evaluated, then and only then would recommend the Corsair CX600.  Perfect fit.
