Product: Pavilion dv7 3020el
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)
Hi, i've got a pavilion dv7 3020 el and i use or for gaming but the GPU is old and it heat up too much (107°C) in all games, eventuali in games that requires low specifications. The PC have an express card port and i want to know if i can use an external gpu with external PCI Express and Express card. If i can, Will i have any problems with temperature or not? And is Express card slot 1x ( as wireless slot) or 16x (as normal gpu slot)? I want to use the Nvidia GTX 1050ti by gigabyte. If i can't use it, what are the GPUs i can use?p.s. Will i damage the motherboard or other hardware?
