Are you able to add a different graphics card or swap the one out that is supplied? If so, does it have to be a specific size card?

You can't swap per se because it's an integrated chip. Having said that, the integrated chip is astoundingly good, so for casual use it should be just fine (performs on par with a mid range card). You might be able to purchase after market parts to attach another card, but as it comes in the box, the unit is far too small to accommodate a full sized card. It has a big brother that has a GTX 760 (don't quote me on that), but last I heard it's performance was hindered by the form factors heat dispersion capabilities.

No, this is all on board. Gigabyte does make an nvidia version you might consider.

You would need to upgrade the power supply and get a better graphics card, costing you about another 300$ or so.

My computer had a pci expressx16 slot so you can add any pci express card. I threw in an old Nvidia 8800gtx but recently replaced that with a gtx460 when i bought another new card for my main computer.

You can put the new one in but before you install the new one you have to uninstall all of the NVIDIA drivers then you can put the new one in and install the new drivers for the AND card.

You can't add memory to any graphics card.* You can add memory to your to system board but that isn't the same as VRAM.

probably limited by your (you probably have )onboard video card -you can get one and add it hopefully

Sorry, another dumb question: How do you check if your graphics card can support the native resolution of the monitor? I have a Dell with NVIDIA GeForce3 Ti 200.

You can just make sure you uninstall the drivers for it while it is still plugged in. Once they're uninstalled remove the old card and add the new one. Install the new drivers that come with the card and you should be all good. I had issues with the drivers on the cd not matching the card so if all else fails just grab the newest driver online.Enjoy :D (R9 290 is a great card)

Nope its not customizable unless you purchase the machine first then purchase a new card. In other words you get what you see, but you can upgrade it!

Hi Laura, We don't have anything proprietary on the machine so as long as the card and power supply fit in the chassis (and it should), you should be able to upgrade both easily :)

yes it does. I do plan to add my own graphics card at a later date but for my needs at the moment it is suitable for me. I don

Not as it stands, you would need to add a decent graphics card for gaming and a more powerful PSU but it has upgradability for this with a PCI express 2.0 port on the motherboard

Yes you can any graphics card would do. I got the Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 GHZ OC 2 GB 256 -bit GDDR5 DL-DVI-I/SL-DVI-D/HDMI/DP PCI-Express Graphics Card 100354OC-2L.

It should definitely improve your graphics experience, but double check that your power supply can handle the new card. Also, is your current graphics handler integrated into the cpu or mobo?
876928
it depends on what cpu and motherboard and power supply you have , and what you're trying to replace it with. You have to make sure that your power supply can handle the graphics card you wants to buy instead

You can use any graphics card to my knowledge because your not running cross fire or sli you just have two gpu's

I don't think this can be done. But it does have an amazing graphics card built in! :D
