Product: HP p7-1254X
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 IOT

The graphics card is built into the CPU, When I bought the PC I was told of a card that would work WITH the internal one, AMD A6 3620 APU with Raadeon HD graphics. I am looking to try to lower the load (and temp) of the CPU, Any ideas or someplace to look?

@Mottlee , welcome to the forum.

 

You are limited to which graphics cards you can use in your computer.  The newer cards require UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard/Legacy BIOS.  HP didn't begin using UEFI until mid-October, 2012 with Win 8.  Your computer was released in December, 2011.  The last cards not to require UEFI were the GTX 660/670 series.
