I need a new Graphics Card for my motherboard

[BryanChauncey4]

I have the Hewlett-Packard 3048h Motherboard with the XU1 PROCESSOR.

Currently the built in graphics only supports DirectX10. The processor is only a dual core.

I need to find a graphics card for this computer that can support at least DirectX11 or even OpenGL.

I also was hoping to upgrade the processor if possible.

Please give me a list of compatible Graphics Cards and processors. Thank You

Hi:

Below is the link to the HP Quickspecs for your PC's model series.

HP Compaq 6000 Pro Business PC (highspeedbackbone.net)

This link provides the list of supported processors and graphics cards supported for the 6000 Pro models by form factor.

I have a HP 8000 Elite (upscale model of the 6000 Pro), and I have an AMD Radeon HD 6450 graphics card in my PC.

That card was the optional card offered in the newer 6200 Pro and 8200 Elite model series and it works just fine in the 8000 Elite.

You can find oodles of them in used but tested and working condition on eBay.

That's where I got mine from.  The Dell branded models will work fine.  I bought one of the Dell fanless models.

Just make sure you get one that has the low profile mounting bracket.

Here are the specs on the card. it seems to meet your dx 11 requirements.
