Hello @DeAdEnDsHaDoW,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, both from other users, HP experts and other support personnel.

 

I read your post about the Graphics Card issue, and wanted to assist you!  I understand that you are looking to upgrade the desktop, and wanted to know what would work.

 

Here are the Product Specifications of the GeForce 210:

 

Bus Support: PCI Express 2.0

Minimum System Power Requirement: 300 W

 

Here are the Product Specifications of the HP Pavilion p6130y:

 

Expansion Slots: 1 PCI Express x16

Power Supply: 300 W

 

Based on the information above, the desktop should have sufficient power to use the card.  However, you may experience a lack in performance, because of the PCI slots.

 

Please let me know if this information helps you resolve the issue by marking this post as "Accept as Solution", this will help others easily find the information they may be looking for.  Also, clicking the Thumbs up below is a great way to say thanks!

Hello @DeAdEnDsHaDoW,

 

As stated in my previous post, the card should fit and run, based on the specifications of the card and desktop.  I have not tested them personally to know for sure.
