Upgrade To My Graphics

[MeowStan]

Hey guys I want to upgrade my graphics card but need to know if my computer can handle a newer card. I have an HP m9660f elite it currently has 9800gt card and I want to put a GTX 750ti in. Before I attempt I need to know if my computer and power supply can handle it?

Any advice would be awesome I need some asap I want to pick it up today if my setup can handle it. Thanks for any advice!

Judging by your specs it 'should' work fine. You have a 460w PSU so should be fine. The card is backward compatible with PCI-e 1.0 so should function okay too. Can't really see any issues.

It should be able to. The power supply is 460 watts. The CPU is really old and might be a bottleneck in games, but yes you should be able to install a 750ti without a problem.

Awesome, that makes me happy and I will mostly only be playing Sims 4 and other non graphically demanding games I just wanna make sure I can play them on high settings

Your CPU is an older AMD Quad, but for those type of games and that GPU will be fine! Happy gaming

The 9800GT takes the same power as the GTX750ti, perhaps even more. You are good.

Considering the card currently in the machine uses almost double the power of the gtx 750 ti, your computer will gladly except the card. Good luck.
