Compatiblity of ATI Radeon R7 250X (1GB DDR5) with my PC

[Sagar Kishore]

Is the aforementioned graphics cards compatible with my pc?

Here's the specs:

Intel i3 2 core 4 logical DH55TC
4 GB DDR3 RAM
450W psu (will get a 550W one)

Lemme know if I need to post any more specifications.

Thanks

1. The PSU will be more than enough!

2. Do you have a GPU installed at the current moment? If so you can pop that out and put this GPU in no problem.

3. If not you will have to open your case and check if the motherboard has a PCIe 2.0 slot. Something that looks like this: http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/attachments/video-cards/11387d1282802199-gpu-z-only-showing-x8-pci-e-lanes-homer-ss2.jpg

4. If not you will have to get a new motherboard and most likely a new cpu

Good Luck! 😀

then u can pretty much install a 750ti... both are 60w gpu.. i dont think u need to upgrade your psu as well.. but still try to get some info about your current psu and mobo so that we tell u the final answer
update: 250x is a 80w gpu.. but still u can use it ..

Alright! Usually there is a thing you can press next to the PCIe slot press that and the GPU will pop out and make sure to unscrew everything on the back of your pc too ^^ you can actually see it in the picture i sent you.
After that plug the 250x in screw it into place and you are ready to go!

Update: If you want to be super sure before you buy it take a photo of the back of your pc and the inside of your pc where your gpu is located and get an angle so i can see the connection between the motherboard and the graphics card.

It does support PCIe 2.0 😀

250x uses a pci 3.0 .. but that is backwards compatible.. and will work your build

Get a program called HWmonitor usually the motherboard name is recognized on the monitor.
