Nvidia card for HP dc5800

[tniM104]

Hello

Does anyone know if a Nvidia GT 710 board will fit in my old HP dc5800?

Hi:

The GT710 should fit and work but make sure you get one that comes with the low-profile mounting bracket if you have a dc5800 SFF.

This benchmarking website shows various user-reported hardware configurations.

This report is for the SFF:

Thanks much for reply!

But I don't know if my PC is SFF or not>

I don't know how to tell if SFF or not SFF.

It looks like a normal old upright PC to me.

I believe it is called a "Microtower".

Does Microtower mean SFF?

You're very welcome.

If your PC looks like the one on page 1 of the specs below, it is a Microtower (MT) and would use the standard size PCI mounting bracket.  The SFF illustration is on page 2.
