HP 280 G2 Small Form Factor PC
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am looking at upgrading from the intergrated intel graphics on my HP 280 G2 Small Form Factor PC. Does anyone know if i am restricted with what kind of graphics card i can use with this computer as 1. it is a small form computer and am worrying about it fitting the chassis, 2. I cant find any information about the motherboard this uses so cannot be certain on compatibility and 3. im not sure if it is possible to upgrade my psu to match higher powered graphics cards. Im not looking for anything expensive or high end to put in this but just need somthing better than what its rocking a the moment. I have been looking at the 

MSI NVIDIA GTX 750Ti Gaming 1085MHz (Boost 1163MHz) 5400MHz 2GB 128-bit DDR5 DL-DVI-D HDMI PCI-E Graphics Card but dont want to drop the money without finding out if it would work. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

 

 

Thanks

@MattSutton01, welcome to the forum.

 

Here is the Maintenance and Service Guide for the computer.  On Page 24 it has a list of approved Expansion cards.  Read the Note that states the video card has to be low-profile.  You should assure that the card will work with the power supply unit (PSU), also.
