Upgrading Graphics card from GT635 to GTX960....wondering if computer will support

[mitchelljeffs]

Hello,

I am looking to upgrade my graphics card from a GeForce GT 635 to a GeForce GTX 960 AMP.

I was wondering if my computer would be able to support it, and whether the card would fit inside properly? 

My computer specs:

HP Envy 700-249

Intel Core i7-4770 

CPU @ 3.40 GHz

12 GB Ram

Power Supply: 460 W

Thanks,

Mitchell

Greetings,

Your PC's BIOS will support the card.

You need one 6 pin connection to the card.

The card is a dual slot and is 9.5 inches in length. Check measurements in your tower and make sure you can install a dual slot card.

The power supply is fine provided you have a six or eight pin connection available.  

Nvidia will provide an adapter.

Disable secure boot. Enable legacy boot.

Cheers!

Hi,

Make sure you completely uninstall the current graphics drivers and all related software.

Check "Programs and Features" until no residual Nvidia software remains.

Enjoy your new card!
