As long as your power supply is sufficient enough and has both an eight pin and six pin, and your motherboard has an available PCI-Express slot you should be fine.

Yes, that's basically it. Put it in and insert the power cable (on the top of the card).

As long as your power supply is powerful enough and has a free 8 pin and 6 pin connector, you should be good. Also, you must have a PCI-E slot on your motherboard. The older, AGP slots do not work for modern GPU's.

You need to make sure your motherboard can support this gpu. I had an older computer when I bought this one and that mother board wouldn't support thisgpu so I had to get a new motherboard. BUt other than that yea that's essentially how it works.

It's a standard PCI-X card which plugs into your motherboard. The power supply required is determined by the chassis you are using and the motherboard's requirements. As long as your computer's power supply provides enough power to supply all the components in your computer it should work fine.

yes, but first delete the drivers on the Radeon card and then shut it down and remove the card and install the new one. Should work much better than the Radeon.

No drivers needed if you have an hdmi out. I don't know if the vga is driver free too

I upgraded my Video card and power source. power was no problem but to get my video card in the right slot i had to take out the chip that controls 2 out of the 3 front usb ports. so if u dont mind that (no big deal for me) u should have no problems.

No your perfectly fine since this card is a low power consumption card. Now it depends on what kind of processor you have. If you have intel you may need to upgrade it. If you have an amd like a 4100 your perfectly fine. If you have that processor and gpu it only requires 240 watts

Yes sure. You just have to check your motherboard has a PCI-Express interface.

Do you have your video cable plugged into the new card or the graphics output on the motherboard? What is your motherboard and what type of connection are you using?

Hi Candace. This should replace the original card - and should go in the same slot that the original one is removed from. You will also need to attach a little jumper cable (provided in the upgrade kit) between the graphics card and a socket on the motherboard. Whole installation should take under 1/2 hour including opening and closing the case. So far, the card has been performing perfectly. Good luck to you!Ken.

For me, I just installed this card and started using it. I did not need anything else. No power cable was necessary

I think it's possible to plug a mid-range graphics card like the nVidia geForce GT6xx series into the PCI slot. Don't know what kind of graphics card you have, but this unit is limited by its 300w power supply.

Just plug it into the PCI express slot. Being fanless, it will receive enough power from the motherboard and not require direct connection to the power supply.

None whatsoever. The important thing to remember is to use a DVI-D cable on the correct port of your video card. I have a GTX780 and there are two DVI ports so I had to research a bit.

Its a low profile card, the only power it needs is that fro. The pcie slot. So just plug in and go

Yes..Put it in the X16 slot. (You have 1) . You will also need at least a 500 watt PSU and 2... 6 pin power plugs for this card.

It's should work fine the card does not need extra power. All it need is the power from you PCI Express and you good to go.
