Does anyone know of a graphics card that is easy to install on this cumputer?I bought a Aseus HD 6450and can't get it to fit.

Most any low profile HD 6450 will fit. I used the MSI HD 6450 and it worked fine. I currently am using a Sapphire HD 6570 low profile. With most low file video cards, you have to change from the full size bracket that is attached to the low profile bracket that comes with them for it to fit. If for some reason the low profile bracket did not come with the Asus, you will have to get one. Normally you get two. One bracket is for DVI & HDMI and the other is for VGA only. I always just use the DVI/HDMI bracket and remove the VGA ribbon connector from the card.

I can't answer that question Walter. When I tried Windows 8 I immediately gave the Dell 660 computer away and went back to my good "old" Windows XP computer.

we never got it running= the power supply kept beeping... I thought we had an issue with the onboard graphics and trying to disable it. we bought a new 550 watt cooler master power supply- the card has its own power connector (in addition to anything it may draw from the bus), most all current supplies will have the proper cord included. So all in all, this HP would not work with the card and a new supply yet it still did not work. This was an HP and they have proprietary BIOS.... We could not really defeat it. We gave up doing this with the HP, bought an ASUS motherboard and an unlocked AMD 8 core CPU, built a rig with spare parts and the coolermaster power supply, and it all rocked just fine. we never got it running= the power supply kept beeping...

You need to have a low profile graphics cards. And a stronger power supply.

You might wanna got to a computer center and get the right one, for yours. Some laptos look the same but. Theres allways some diff about then.

The Asus X750JA that I purchased from this supplier has a Intel HD4000 non-dedicated Graphics card that basically does very little. No nVidia Graphics, and make sure if you do buy an upgrade that it fits, this laptop is the 7mm-thick-hard-drive-kind. If you're desire is to game, this probably isn't the right laptop for you.

Look at the memory compatibility list in the manual and online. The Asus is fussy and just does not work with some memory timings.

I would try http://www.gigabyte.com/. they have support and specs and different downloads. Depending on what information you are looking for as to what you will find. I still have mine somewhere ans as I remember there is not much to it.

I actually have one of these in a Dell Dimension 4600 and it works beautifully. Not sure why you think it requires a low profile card since the Dimension 4600 is such a big desktop, a full size graphics card will work perfectly.

Nope, the GTX 970 G1 is 12.23" and the HAF-912 only has 10.55 (ish)" available behind the PCI-E slot, sorry... :-(

I'd buy a Geforce, but that's just me. I am still using my 2600K, with a Geforce 760 4GB and it's a great system.

I like my EVGA GeForce GT 610 I watch a lot of videos too, looks great. One warning make sure you know how work with windows fonts, they changed when I installed the card. I'm using 8.1 though

I've installed it.I used the esxi cuatomized by hp. Think it's not officially supported but works ok. No hardware passthrough unless you change the cpu though. Hope this helps. Pls correct me if i'm wrong.

Depends on what you have or are getting. If you're getting a 745 tower, most any card will fit, physically. Just be careful to select a card that doesn't demand more power than your power supply can provide. In my case, my 745 tower has a 305W power supply so I'm limited to mid-range cards that are good for streaming video, but limited for high-end gaming. For my needs, I'm looking at a GT 610 (made by NVIDIA and packaged by several companies such as EVGA, MSI, ASUS and others ($50 +/-) for streaming video and multiple monitor support ... no gaming in my blood. I'm leaning toward the ASUS because it has a large heat sink - no fan. (I like quiet and there are fewer parts to break.) There are plenty of cards out there, so take your time shopping and read the reviews. Two more things: Try the following search: "How do I choose a graphics card?" and you will find more information than you can digest. Also, if you are a gamer, and need more power, upgrading your power supply is always an option.
