HP Pavalion 500-220in will it support EVGA GTX 1060 SC 6GB?

Is it compatible to the above specs I am having a monitor with dvi d dual link so its not a problem but the mother board and dimensions are they suitable for the cabinet ?

Hello.

First of all, your computer only accepts low-profile cards. The best available low profile card atm is the GTX 750ti. It probably has to be no longer than 170MM.

Next, your power supply is 300W. This is insufficient for most new cards. I suggest changing it to at least a 450W or higher supply.

Appreciate your reply Natsukage.
The needs for power are taken care of with Corsair 430W CX PSU and secondly my Present GPU is of 6.6x2.7inch in dimensions and EVGA GPU has 6.8 inch (width is unknown) . So I just want to know any further problems wont arrise and still according to the given dimensions it should fit ( I am not so good with mathematics , apologies ). Thank you for your reply .

The problem with the EVGA is the height. Your max height is 2.7 in. That is the bracket height. The EVGA is a full-size card, 4.376in high. It will not fit inside.

Your best bet is either to wait for a low profile GTX 1050 card, or to get a GTX 950:

Width and height are standardized for the most part. Your case is a normal mintower which accepts full height and low profile is for slim cases. Width is single slot, dual slot, triple, with most gpus being dual slot. The only thing that changes mostly is the length and if your current card is 6.6" then you should be able to see if 6.8" will fit.

I think natsukage is looking at the wrong pc.

Hmm, I highly suggest doing measurements yourself. Take your video card and measure the bracket size. Looking at internet drawings and manufacturer specs is limited. As k1114 says, I may be looking at the wrong picture....?

But HP definitely classifies this as a Microtower?

The GT 625 is a low profile card, and has a LP bracket?

Appreciate you reply.
But is there some other way to make it work like a new motherboard or cabinet if its in budget I can upgrade or Ill get your suggested GPU.

 

[Natsukage]

You can technically get a new casing and fit that Memphis-S board in it. Any Micro-Atx compatible casing should work. The power connectors seem to have the standard layout.
You can then add whatever card you want, including the GTX 1060, if your casing supports it.

The link you have given is of the my current PC.

That's not an lp bracket. It's a low profile card with a full height bracket. The pic of the tower should have been obvious that it's not slim. On top of that, it's an atx psu, he stated he upgraded to an atx psu, and it's a tower, not a desktop so the psu has to be in a normal tower position which is going to make it wide enough for a full height gpu.

Thanks for confirming. ^^

Ok, case confirmed. The EVGA GTX 1060 SC will fit inside. I suggest upgrading the power supply though, but it should work.

Just do clean up all the dust beforehand...^^
