Solved: What GPU's are compatible with my motherboard? - HP Support Community

Zhhero · ‎04-08-2020

I'm trying to upgrade my GPU in my system for a better gaming experience, so I took the computer into my local PC part store and they told me that the GPU I was looking at is probably not going to be compatible with my motherboard. The assistant at the store said I should look up a list of which GPU's are compatible with my motherboard, but I can't find that list anywhere. Any help?

@Zhhero,

Sometimes it is better to come here. Your computer has the Hamar motherboard, and is very similiar to the Lubin motherboard. Any graphic card must fit, and a long card slams into the 24pin main power cabling. If you measure your existing GTX 750Ti card, and keep any replacement card the same length, or shorter, your OK as far as the card goes. You would still need a new PSU rated to support any new GPU. So, what do you need to do. Measure
