Hi Mike,

Yes.

 

If it is advertized as an option on the configuration page it means that HP stands behind it as being compatible with your unit.

If you are looking to upgrade to a video card with some power then you should consider replacing the case. 

 

The small form factor PCs are the worst case scenario for upgrading simply because the small format case makes a requirement for the PSU to have a special footprint. 

 

Upgrade PSUs for SFF PCs like yours do not provide enough power for a video pcard with grunt nor do they come with PCIe power connectors.

 

The followin search shows whatis available in terms of after market upgrade PSU for SFF PC's.

Well since i will build a computer later,Somewhere i had seen that this computer could be ordered with stock graphics card but i cant locate the pages i saw them on..

HP Recommended

Unfortunately no.

 

That is because the small form factor PCs have OEM power suplies that do not supply enough power nor spare PCIe power conectors  for much of a  graphics upgrade.

I found this page that shows 2 graphics cards that could be ordered when customizing my unit to buy from HP...I know they wont do much,but which 1 would be better?                                     http://store.hp.com/us/en/ConfigureView?catalogId=10051&urlLangId=&langId=-1&storeId=10151&catEntryI...

The NVS310 graphics card gives you a bit more bang than the GeForce card does.

 

You can run two displays from that NVIDIA Quardo professional graphics card.
