Product: HP Z400 Workstation
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (32-bit)

Hello, I have an HP Workstation Z400 with a standard graphics card NVIDIA Quadro 4000 graphics card! I want to upgrade my graphics card and I bought an EVGA GTX780 card can you tell me if it is compatible with my PC? I just bought an HP 600W power supply, I had the original 450W power supply but I wasn't sure it was enough. Can you tell me if I'm going to have any problems or if my motherboard is at risk? Thank you in advance for your support Xavier

Looks like you should be good to go.. That card can consume 250 watts and a 600 watt supply is recommended

You will not be able to keep your Quadro but you could add USB3 or a combo wifi/Bluetooth

 

You might consider upgrading to 64bit windows unless you have apps and licenses good only on 32 bit windows.
