HP Compaq 6005 Pro Small Form Factor PC

Can anyone help me figure out how to find a graphics card update for my machine (or provide some specific suggestions)?  I think the motherboard is 3047h and the current graphics device is ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT.  I don't really know how to figure out what is compatible with this.  On another forum, someone suggested an AMD Radeon HD 6570 card.  Thank you!

Take a look at this benchmarking website reports from other owners of your model PC.

 

UserBenchmark: HP Compaq 6005 Pro SFF PC Compatible Components

 

These have reports of all the different graphics cards that they installed in that model.

 

You need to buy a low profile card that comes with the low profile mounting bracket.

 

Since your PC has a 240W power supply, I would stay within the range of a 30W - 60W card.

 

You can look up the specs for the various cards by doing a search on the internet.

 

For example, if you wanted to install a Radeon RX 6400 (a recent model card), here are the specs:
