HP Pro 3300 Microtower PC (Powered by: Intel i5 2nd Generation Processor)
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello everyone, 

I have a HP Pro 3300 MT and I want to install a dedicated GPU inside of it. By the way i'll already seen the compatible graphics card for my system but unfortunately I can't to buy any of them because of the following reasons

1. Availabilty of the Compatible Graphics Card

2. Reviews

 

So I am considering to buy a low profile GTX 730 or 750 (not the Ti) The 730 and the 750 is compatible with my PSU (NVIDIA stated that 730 and 750 only requires a 300 W PSU which I already have) but idk if my BIOS will accept the 730 or the 750

 

I hope that someone will be able to help me with my concern! Thank you!~

@kenneth_,

That unit is circa 2011, and was WIN  7 upon issue.  It has a boot environment called "BIOS".  Modern cards like the GT730/750 are UEFIvBIOS cards, and are NON-Compliant with your old computer.

Anyways, I am considering to use 9800GT 512MB 256 BIT for my system because basically that card performs is a beast and performs much better than those compatible video cards to my system. 🙂
