HP Envy Phoenix 860-000na
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have an HP Envy Phoenix 860-000na and would like to replace the graphics card. Currently this is an AMD Radeon R9 380, 4GB version. I am looking at using an AMD RX 580 8GB or better and would like to know if the PSU in my PC would handle it; if there is sufficient space to install it and whether the graphics card support bracket would still work with the new card.

 

Additionally, does the NVMe slot behind the graphics support and boot from NVMe drives? Are there any potential cooling issues I should be aware of?

 

BIOS is version 2B4B and BIOS is updated to A0.59.

 

Thank you.

@Kamnik,

I will answer the GPU question first:

The RX 580 is 5W less then the R9 380, so your safe to go with the present 500W PSU.

From the limited pictures that I could find, the GPU bracket seems to cradle the card. The pic I did see was generic with a GTX 970 as an example.

The NVMe slot issue:

@Wb2001,

 

Thank you very much for your prompt reply. I may hold off on the NVMe drive for now because airflow in the Phoenix case isn't great, but then it's long overdue a good clean.
