Guide for Selecting a Discrete Video Card

Hi,

Yes the 6+2 PCI-E power connector should work.

HI dave, you can see a transparent six pin power connector connected to the OEM 760. And a transparent 2 pin power connector dangled free, both I see is labelled "P10". Do make sense to me now.

Sorry I am a complete noob.

Hi dave, the pics are posted as you reply, you can see the OEM 760 is connected to a transparent six pin power connector and one transparent 2 pin power connector dangle free. Both  are labelled "P10". Do make sense to me now. Thanks.

Hi there guys, i'm really new to the pc game so bare with me please! 🙂

I just purchased the pavilion 500-319 with the 705 and the 180w psu.

I want to upgrade to the gtx750 ti, is this possible and what psu would I need please?

Many thanks

Dale

Hi Dale,

Since the 180 watt PSU in your PC is somewhat unique, I would suggest that you measure it and obtain the dimensions.  Typically most HP ATX power supplies are 5.9 by 3.4 by 5.5.

The manufacturers for many of the NVIDIA GTX 750 only require a 300 watt power supply but some models of the NVIDIA GTX 750 need to have a PCI-E 6 pin power connector.

If your PC has the typical HP ATX PSU size, then I would suggest the Corsair CX500 PSU in case you want to use a bigger graphics card in the future.  If not, then the Corsair CX430 should be fine.

Hi!

I have HP ENVY 700-430qe with 400 w PSU

and upgrade it with PNY GeForce GTX 750Ti Overclocked GDDR5 PCIe 3.0x16 Video Card

it doesn't have any power connector except in slot and works very good even with game

in high and very high graphics... Look picture below

at the end you can see peaks - this is during I play "Assassin's Creed Unity" with HighGraphics (fps ~35)...

I check the power consumptions for all system  (PC 700-430qe + 27MP65HQ-P) and it is around 130 watts

with very rare and short peaks to 160 watts.

When don't run aplication with havy graphics all system use 30-35 watts.

PNY GeForce GTX 750Ti overclocked

Mfr Part# VCGTX750T2XPBOC

UPC 751492571966

very economical video card!

(with all saves and rebates it cost only 129.99 for me)

Thanks for the info guys!

I shall measure the pay someday at some point Dave and then will know where I am regards to changing it.

Must admit I'm such a total amateur with regards to changing parts as movement the last ten years on laptops and consoles.
