Adding a GPU to Pavilion 510-p010

[Kaillou]

I have a few questions that still have not been answered for a long time. This is regarding adding a GTX 1050ti low profile to my pavilion 510-p010

1. Will the GTX 1050ti low profile by gigabyte fit in my PC? I ordered an Asus one but that didn't fit so I had to return it. (It was the one fanned Pheonix)

2. Will any normal PSU work in this pc? The one I am thinking about buying is the Thermaltake  430W.

3. Will I have software issues? I have asked this question before but I get mixed responses.

@Kaillou,

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

I checked the specifications of your computer and below are the expansion slots available on your computer.

• One PCI-E (GEN 3) x16 socket
• One M.2 socket 1, key A

You can go ahead and install any graphics card which supports the above slot (Considering the form factory).

The power supply on your computer is 180 W uATX aPFC internal power supply. You can install any uATX aPFC internal power supply.

Refer to the below link for the product specifications.

Hi, I tried to put in a 1050ti and it did not fit. Even the low profile cards will not fit because of the PSU cable to motherboard blocks the way for a card to go in. There is only 30cm of clearance and low profile cards are 35-40. Is there any way to avoid this bad engineering idea?

The PSU is right above the GPU slot and the 24pin connector is right below the PSU. Thanks.

Also, this is the thing I'm talking about

You can see the spacing between the GPU slot and the PSU connector

Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post personal information (serial numbers and case details).

Tbh I don't know what you're trying to tell me, but okay.

Hi Kaillou,

A motherboard layout, such as yours, where the 24 pin PSU connection is directly beneath the PCIe x16 slot usually limits graphics card upgrades to a single slot graphics card.

Dual slot graphics cards don't fit.
