Video Card

[Manny8922]

Hello ALL,

I have two questions for you expert people which no one else seems to have answers to. Here they are;

1.What is the largest RAM that can be installed? 16GB or 32GB. We have BIOS V7.15 date: 7/2/2012; 460W power supply.

2.The original video card failed and I installed an NVIDIA GeForce 630 (2GB). This card worked well for a long time. But now it is starting to fail.

So, can I install any of the following without having to replace the 460W supply:

NVIDIA GeForce 640 (3GB) (seems to be the best choice, your opinions?)

Radeon HD 7570 (1GB)

Radeon HD 7570 (2GB)

Radeon HD 7670 (1GB)

Radeon HD 7770 (2GB)

Radeon HD 7770 (3GB)

Will the NVIDIA GTX1050 work in this computer?

1. RAM:

• Memory slots: 4 DDR3 DIMMS
• Maximum memory:
  • 32 GB (4 x 8 GB) (64-bit OS)

2. Video card: Its latest BIOS is version 8.21 A which allows you to install GTX 10xx video card. This card requires 300W minimum PSU and your machine has one of the following PSU's

• 300W
• 460W
• 600W

That means NVIDIA GTX1050 should work.

Regards.
