Presently I have a geForce 230 and would like to upgrade to a GTX 750 ti which requires a 300w power supply, I presently have only a  150 watt power supply. Can I upgrade the power supply to 300watt...is there enough room in this computer to have an larger power supply ?  Thanks

No, you can't upgrade to a GTX 750ti video card.  They require UEFI in the motherboard.  HP didn't begin using UEFI until mid-October, 2012.  Your computer was released on May 7, 2010.

 

Here is the video slot information for the motherboard:

 

*Integrated video is not available if a graphics card is installed.
 
  • GeForce G200 integrated graphics
  • One Mobile PCI Express Module (MXM) socket
    • MXM version: 3.0, type A
    • <35W
    • Used for MXM graphics card included with selected models

 

These video cards are difficult to find because they are used mainly by OEM manufacturers like HP.

@AtanuDe, welcome to the forum.

 

I am sorry that I can't answer your question.  The original poster didn't come back for any more information.
