Product: HP ENVY 700-214
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Ok, so i have an HP ENVY 700-214 ( specs here: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04100558 ) and would like to get a new graphics card that is compatable with my setup. Everything is wxactly the way I bought it. I want a graphics card that will be easy to install but also the best in the price range of 200-350 dollars. Ive been looking around but cant find something that tells me what I want to know. Thank you for your time, any input would be apreciated.

@DudeSame, welcome to the forum.

 

Here is a great little video card that will fit easily into your case and give you good performance.  However, you will have to check to see if the power supply unit (PSU) in the computer has an additional 6-pin power connector.  Most cards in the price range that you want require at least one connector, either 6 or 8 pin or both.  It is out of stock at the present.  You may be able to find it at another etailer.  Read the Customer Reviews to see what users have to say about it.

Hi, thank you so much for your input. I looked over your recomendation and it looks like it will work for me, but before I do I was wondering if you know if it will fit within my pc tower? Do you know or should I have someone look at it to see? And if I dont have a 6 pin connector is there a way to get one to install or is it something that i would have to change the powersource for? Thank you again.

@old_geekster has furnished an excellent answer. 

You asked if your existing PSU  (see link) had a 6pin PCIE power plug... the answer is "yes".

Cautionary Note:  The 460W rating is called PEAK.  The actual sustainable is 415W.
