I have an HP m8457c Pavilion running windows 8, 8 gigs of ram, my system is old and runs on DDR2 but has a PCIe Express 2 x 16 will the GT630 operate

I use it in a dell with the same set up but i have windows 7 it works great good fps.

I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work with that setup. I have the GT630 in a Windows 7 machine and it runs great.

Yes, that computer should handle that video card just fine. Although if you currently have the Geforce 8400 or Geforce 8500 installed there would be no need to get this one because they are almost identical. Hopefully you're familiar with putting in video cards. You can also check this website to see my source of info. Check under expansion slots: http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/ca/en/ho/WF06a/12132708-12133156-12133158-12133158-12133158-80631744.html?dnr=2

DDR2 is the same as PC2 when it comes to memory modules. This should work just fine depending on what you already have installed. Remember memory is installed in pairs.

if you go to the hp pavilion a6217c and check the specs. you will find out what type of ram and how much it will be able to run. then buy that type.

This card is backwards compatible with any pci express x16. So yes it should run fine, but make sure your hardware is not gonna limit the full potential of the card.

Not if you are using Vista, the driver support is not there. This card works well in WIN XP, and some very rare cases WIN 7. Vista is out. HP motherboards can be unhappy about running the card as well, be sure to leave your old one (onboard) switched on when trying out the install.

I have not actually used my GeForce GT630 2GT ddr3 PCI Express card for any high quality gaming activities.

I researched your computer and it will support your pc. The E8400 is nice but, you could even consider a used quad core. Your HP Pavilion computer can run a 95 watt socket 775 processor. Ex. Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650

If it has a pci-express slot and power/supply has 6 pin pci plug you should be good to go.Make sure you download drivers and AMD applicable performance programs i.e. AMD catalyst. Good Luck.... Rudy

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc;=en&dlc;=en&docname;=c03425388 Here are the specs for the computer your asking about. The only thing I would wonder about is the fit inside the case. Where this is a big size card. On the page I'm sending you, look for graphics and it has a list there on the page. It does list a couple cards from the 600 series. I would suggest looking at the pci slots and matching those up as well.

No it won't work because of the HP BIOS lock. This card is NOT whitelisted in HP BIOS.

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.

Yes, yes it is. The HP Pavilion All-in-One Desktop Series all run on DDR3 ram. Since this is DDR3 ram, you can use this in your desktop :)

I am not certain if that is the right chip for you. You will need to research your motherboard. Try going to the HP web site, since they own Compaq now. I installed it on a ECS A885GM-A2, with 8g of ram and a SSD. The operating system is Linux Ubuntu 12.04LTS. I am curently very happy with the performance.

the best way to find this out is to identify the mainboard and its memory capacity. As far as the physical fit is concerned, most of your older laptops will accept this SODIMM. However, once you ID the mainboard look to see what the RAM pin out is and compare the two. What I know is that the D630 is able to accept up to 8gigs of RAM. This set will work in it, but I would recommend maxing out; better performance.

it has a pcie slot so i dont think it really matters if the memory on a dedicated graphic card is dd2/ddr3 so yes you can

I really don't know, look up the specs online and see if it takes a PC2-5300 DDR2 module or not.
