HP Envy 700-060ea - Possible Upgrades

[Mattosx]

Hi 

I have a HP Envy 700-060ea. I would like to upgrade it for better gaming. So how can I max this machine today?

Current specs: https://support.hp.com/gb-en/document/c03824427

Upgraded Nvidia Geforce 760 - higher spec than attached - but assume power supply as stated in link?

I have seen I can upgrade to 32GB of RAM on 64bit system (please confirm and specifiy if there is a good make model to buy?)

I would like to upgrade the graphics but assume the processor, motherboard etc are ok? but I am not sure what will work/fit/be powered. 

I could also look to replace power supply if required. 

I am not sure how much this will all cost or if i might be better off investing in a new system. Also considering a 256GB SSD to keep things moving quick (another internal drive for media etc.) 

Any advice would be appreciated. 

Kind regards, 

Matt

Hi 

Ok after a bit of research I am looking at the Geforce GTX 1060 (MSI version). 

https://www.amazon.co.uk/MSI-NVIDIA-GeForce-Express-Graphics/dp/B01IOPQ1VO?th=1

I need to look a bit more into the power supply etc but I think this could work. With the addition of the RAM and a new SSD this should create a nice'ish gaming machine. 

If anyone can confirm or give me any advice I would appreciate it (a bit new to all the PC stuff). 

Cheers,

Matt

@Mattosx,

Welcome to the HP Forums!

Thank you for posting your query on this forum, it's a great place to find answers.

I reviewed your post and I understand that you want to know the upgrade information for your computer.

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

You can go ahead and install Geforce GTX 1060 graphics card and it should work fine. I see that you have 460-Watt power supply on the computer and I do not see any need to upgrade the power supply.

As you have mentioned your computer supports up to 32GB of RAM.

Hope that answers your question and you have a great day!
