Which GPUs Would be Compatible with My Motherboard?

[Tank36]

Hello, I was wondering what GPU's would be compatible with the ms-7778 motherboard? I have a 300w power supply and I know it sucks, and Ill upgrade it soon, but what good quality card could last 2 or 3 years with upgrading to a 500w or 600w power supply, and would be compatible with my computer.

A 750ti may work with your system, only issue can be the PSU.

if you upgrade to a 650w psu then an r9 270x or a gtx760 will last you for a few years no prob

if you want to not change the psu then get a gtx750.. its a bit weak but doesnt need much power

i would test the gpus before buying them since your system is a prebuilt by HP .. they lock their BIOS to not support all hardware sometimes

take it to a pc shop and get it tested wih various gpus.. if they work then you know that your bios is not locked

That's why I said that it may work.
I'd suggest trying out the 750ti and if it doesn't work, the PSU should be upgraded(assuming the motherboard accepts the GPU).
