Some upgrate for AMD RADEON HD 5450?

[Kodreng]

I have a 'Compaq Presario CQ5301SC desktop pc' with a cart 'AMD Radeon HD 5450', number 'EAH5450 silent CT70050156 - O1211 - C1CP25 - BO1 - P25B1'.

After installing WiN 10, it had become to slow, and I can see on the score, that it is the AMD cart which are bad, aboat 3.4 in scale up to 6.

So I have seached for an upgrate to a faster cart, but to times I had been wrong, and the cart doesn´t fit. Somebody who can help with this upgrate problem?

Hi:

You are limited to using old cards that you probably would have to get on eBay because the BIOS your PC has is too old to run newer graphics cards.

How many watts is your PC's power supply?

I cannot find any specs on your PC itself.  Just the motherboard info.

Hi Paul_Tikkanen. 

Thanks a lot. The power supplay is 500W, and motherboard: Foxconn, ETON, ver, 1.0.

If you can suggest a better old card, what so ever it is, I will be glad.

You're very welcome, Kalle.

SInce your PC has a 500W P/S, you could install any AMD Radeon HD 6xxx model that will work with the power supply, or any Nvidia GT(X) 6xx model that will work with the power supply.

I would look for used but tested and working cards on eBay.

For example, there are lots of AMD Radeon HD 6570's for sale that have a 128 bit memory interface, and are considerably better than the HD 5450.

Or maybe the Nvidia GTX 650.
