[Guest]

i am thinking of upgrading my AMD radeon hd6450 with ZOTAC NVIDIA GTX 650 Ti 2 GB GDDR5
is that compatible with my pc-HP PAVALION P7-1010in

motherboard specs : http://h20566.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/kb/docDisplay/?spf_p.tpst=kbDocDisplay&spf_p.prp_kbDocDisplay=wsrp-navigationalState%3DdocId%253Demr_na-c02831611-7%257CdocLocale%253D%257CcalledBy%253D&javax.portlet.begCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&javax.portlet.endCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken

1) Yes, what you're looking for is the "Supports PCI Express x16 graphics cards" or the image of the motherboard showing the slot itself if you know what it looks like.

2) You ALSO need a power supply that has the proper 6/8-pin connections. The GTX650Ti requires a 1x6-pin though it's POSSIBLE to use an adapter in some cases if there is no 6-pin PCIe connector and the power supply can provide enough power on the 12-volt rail for your CPU and graphics card. If you need more info then ask.

3) The ASUS version is about $15 more but IMO it's a much better card. It's far quieter, and can overclock better. Here's the Zotac and Asus links for the USA:

4) In case you aren't aware, get the drivers from NVidia's main website don't bother with the disc.

5) *If you don't have 64-bit Windows then you should get a 1GB card as 32-bit Windows can only address 4GB which includes System and Video RAM so the more VRAM you have the less of your System RAM can be accessed (regardless of how much is physically installed).

Well, rather than taking the ASUS GTX 650 Ti as suggested above, why not opt for Zotac GTX750Ti 2GB GDDR5? u got better performance, lower power consumption, better oc capabilities (esp. w/ the new driver) for roughly the same price as the ASUS GTX650Ti suggested above. Even in my area (what u would call 3rd world), GTX750Ti price only differ by $15-$20 here. sorry for bad english tho.

update: incase u were wondering, PCIe x16 support up to the latest GPU available.
