HP Pavilion HPE h8-1212c - graphics card upgrade advice

[generalripper]

Hi

I currently have a Nvidia Geforce GT 520 card in this computer:

I would like to upgrade up to a EVGA GeForce GTX 660 2GB

It looks compatible but I wouldn't mind an experts eye check it out.

Also the 300W power supply...does that need an upgrade to handle the card?

Many thanks for any advice.

Graphics card is compatible and yes, you'd need to upgrade the power supply. A quality 450 watt PSU from Antec, Seasonic, Corsair, FSP Group, or PC Power and Cooling would suffice.
