Hi @Omer29,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

 

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your PC!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

 

Try these steps:

Yes, you can replace the two built-in NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 graphics cards in your OMEN X by HP Desktop PC - 900-011ng with a single RTX 3060 or RTX 3070 graphics card without changing the CPU (Intel Core i7-6700K) or the motherboard (Munich-S). Here are the key considerations for this upgrade:

Motherboard Compatibility:

  • The Munich-S motherboard has PCIe x16 slots which support the RTX 3060 and RTX 3070 graphics cards.
  • Ensure your motherboard has the latest BIOS update before installing the new graphics card.

Power Supply:

  • The built-in power supply in your OMEN X by HP Desktop PC - 900-011ng has a 1300 W capacity, which is sufficient to support the power requirements of RTX 3060 or RTX 3070.
  • Make sure the PSU has the necessary connectors for your new graphics card.

Physical Space:

  • Check the physical space inside your PC case to ensure that the new graphics card fits properly.
  • The Munich-S dimensions and ports layout should support the installation of these cards.

Drivers:

  • After installing the new graphics card, download and install the latest drivers from the NVIDIA website for the RTX 3060 or RTX 3070.

I hope this helps.
