is it supposed to have 300 hp like an original card

I have no idea. I bought it for my grandson who told me what he wanted. Sorry I couldn't help.

I regret buying this card for my son. Stamped in huge letters on the back "Not for play use" so he can't use the HP300 with his friends. I didn't realize it wasn't a real card, since his other jumbo cards are legal for play.

I believe so but I would try to get the extreme one that's is going to be fast. Also make sure you reformat the card in the contour before use so it works properly.

You should be fine. I keep mine in an antec 300. it's a big card no matter what though. The power adapters it comes with are stiff so they don't bend well against the side panel. you should be fine with 600w. just be careful with any overclocking!

I can not answer that question. Check the owners manual, or the size of an existing card.

I am not sure about the power supply/ computer you have. I have used this card in two different hp computer with the standard power supply with no problems. It'sa great card to replace standard graphics on the mobo. I would consider a more expensive card if you are a gamer.

the current 300W power supply should be able to support up to GT630 Graphic card. But if you do need to upgrade to a higher end graphic card then you will need a higher power supply.

I like the card overall--for old HP--colors are bright and intense, and good for today's games--like for diablo III. I'm pretty sure it will work once I upgrade the CPU---and if I have to switch the motherboard then I might just get that and a power pack as well--although this works with the 300w that was stock with this crappy HP---ive pretty much upgraded everything else on this thing. thanks!

My Dell XPS Studio also has a 300 Watt power supply and I have had no issues since installing the card

Per the EVGA website you need a "Minimum of a 350 Watt power supply".You didn't mention what type and model PC you have. If it is an HP they come terribly under-powered. I would upgrade your power supply. Do not try and use that card with anything less than a 350 watt power supply. I'd get a bare minimum of a 450W power supply.

I ran it with a 300w and it ran fine. However, for the price, there are better cards you can get, like the 7750 and 7770 that aren't very expensive, but perform very well.

I have 350 watt and the card is fine. I wouldn't use anything less. The only problem I have is that when I connect my monitor via HDMI, the display output is larger than my screen.

Nope. On the box it says a minimum amount of power to operate properly. I think a 350W power supply is not sufficient to run this card. Plus, you will need extra 2 peripheral power connectors if you do not have a 6pin power connector to the PSU

I can't be certain that it is but it is very uncommon (given that your HP has a PCI-E slot) that this sort of expansion card would be a problem. Just be sure you have an empty PCI-E X8 slot on your motherboard.

This graphic card need at least 300 power supply if you have 220 this card can't work and your computer I have this problem now

The spec sheet says the minimum power requirement is 300 watts for the system and 65 for the card, so it would seem your system is right on the edge.

I just upgraded to this card with the stock 300W ps and am extremely happy. The performance exceeds my expection. If fact, this card doesn't even have an aux socket for you to plug in for add'l power.

Hi Luis. There's no extra power plug for this card, so that part is fine for you. But only 300W is pretty low. You can try it, and if you experience random shutdowns and instability, that's your primary cause and you should upgrade the PS to 600W or so. Obviously, no video card will really use 200W (it would simply melt down), but most PS are 80% efficient, a hard drive takes some more, the CPU takes some, on and on. As you can read, some folks are using it with 300W just fine. You need to take into account how much other stuff you have plugged in and running. I had five hard drives, a 125W CPU and so on, so it was unworkable to have just 300W. Hi Luis. There's no extra power plug for this card, so that part is fine for you. But only 300W is pretty low.
