Question New mobile GPU

[jamespromiii]

I have an HP 8770w with a K3000M GPU and I was looking to upgrade to the 5000M, my question is there are a few on Ebay that were pulled out of Dells, are those GPUs compatible in an HP?

According to the manual the top GPU would be the Quadro 5010M. I would search by the part number 689282-001 for a used one or try this site:

Says its new but I have never heard of the site myself.

Very expensive, I was hoping to spend $150-200.

There are refurbished options:

However refurbished could have potential issues and a lesser warranty.

There are also used 4000Ms which should work and be cheaper.

Ok my question is I see a lot of them pulled from dells, would those GPUs work in an HP?

In theory they should work as they are the same, typically the only difference is in their cooling design for them but the cards are the same. There is no guarantee from HP though unless you use the one with their part number.
