I have done some reasearch and realize that the hp pro 3400 mt has some  compatibility issues with the gtx 7xx series and  amd r9/r7 series cards I want to ask a few questions in hope that i can find a solution for upgrading for both myself and other hp pro 3400 mt users.

 

1. does anybody know any CONFIMED mid to high range video cards that work in this model?

2. does anybody know if the hp mobo is a rebranded mobo by foxxconn or some other company  that could have an identical board to update the bios. (hp stops at rev 7.xx)

3. does anyone know the particular reason that these cards have compatibility issues? (why  or why not supported)

that way perhaps someone could look for cards that have a particular "feature", "instructions set", "version", or "component" that is compatible.

4. Are there any work arounds that i may have not come across?

 

If you have answers to any of these questions of found similar solutions with another model, plz state that as well. Thankyou.

Would disabling secure boot and enable legacy mode solve this problem?

I would also like to know a confirmed successful equivalent tech GFX card that confirmed works with a HP PRO 3400 MT.

 

I ahve uprated the PSU to 600W, but needa  GFX card that certainly works...

 

I have a GTX 750 ti which I just bought but it doesnt really work properly..... Some major boot up problems, but seems to work OK once going!

It will work GTX650. I fitted the ASUS version will the low power requirement marked withe suffix  "e", works great with the existing power supply. (Like you i tried the GTX 750 without success.)
