No

Never put a gaming card in this machine, you will blow up the power supply. There machines have a very special power supply built for the Quadro cards. If you need more power get a higher card in the Quadro range.

I tried out a GTX 560 TI in may HP and 🙁 it burnt out the PSU, and on research with HP there are many crying about it.
HP answer was that this is a special machine looking at workstations cards, not gaming cards.

It was built for these types of cards in mind.

Quadro M5000 or the Quadro M6000
It will even run 2x of these with the Upgraded PSU in SLI. Which is sort of crasy as the cards cost $1500 each or more
But the performance is off the scale, they have like 12GB each card.

So you can build a machine that can render monster CAD images or even a movie on 8 monitors, but burns out when you play games. Go figure.

I bought an Alienware just because of this very issue. => Auroa R4 => and stuck in a GTX 760
My HP will now only run Autocad and not games.
