Graphic card replacement for graphic design

Maya-Spanje · ‎06-08-2016

I start having hardware problems with my graphic card (NVidia GT 750) and I am looking for a replacement. We don't need a gaming card, but we are doing high end graphic design with Photoshop CC 2015, Illustrator, InDesign and so on...

Thanks for your help!

Hello Maya-Spanje

If you are a high end user of Photoshop, e.g.

You need a Nvidia Quadro graphics card.

A Quadro graphics card won't make mistakes while rendering.

Other graphic cards will make mistakes resulting in poor quality.

Ok, thank you.

Are those cards compatible with my computer/motherboard?

Computer is HP Envy Phoenix 810 (2 years old) with Intel i7-4790 CPU

PCI Express x16 2.0 is needed...

It depends on what kind of card you buy,

I took a K600 as example, it is an entry level videocard.

This one will fit.
