HP Z210 CMT Workstation hangs on BIOS with GTX 960

HP Z210 CMT Workstation hangs on BIOS with GTX 960. Do you know what could be the reason? I already upgraded to the latest FW (Feb 2015). It's brand new! TT

Yes it should work because I had a GTX 970 in my old HP ML110 G6 server. BUT...you might need to upgrade that power supply.
I used a 650W PSU I had spare and it ran fine.

@RobWHS Thank you for your tip, I must have to try that. I'll post any results (let me get that power supply first).

You're welcome. Good luck, I can't see any reason it shouldn't work.

Hello!

Luis did you finally find a solution? I have purchased a Hp z210 cmt with a xeon e3 1240 and a quadro 2000. I have also ordered an asus GeForce gtx 960 mini. I haven't received the computer yet. As far as I know, the hp original PSU is a 400w 80% efficient gold with a 6 pin connector. Is this correct?
I was wondering if the 960 card would run ok with this workstation and psu.

I can confirm that the gtx 960 works like a charm!
