Changing GPU on PC.

[Mirdude]

Ordering this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00R3NK2LE for my current PC.

Just need to know if it's possible to change this on an Advent DT2111 PC.
It currently has an AMD HD6670 GPU.

Just want to know if the PCIE connections etc are fine, I live in the UK but the GPU is from the US, is that fine too?

Is this your PC? This is why you should never buy built computers as this one. They do not specify the motherboard model nor the PSU. You should open up your case and check how much W it has.
For this GPU it is recommended that you have 500W minimum power.
Are you sure that it will fit in your case? This GPU is really monstrous length-wise. I don't think that it will.


It doesn't matter where the GPU is from. There are no differences, as most GPUs today use PCI Express.

Sorry for a late reply, yes it is. Why do I get PCIE's from nowadays, I just need a 500W+ PSU with i5 processor+ that I can fit a GTX 970 into fine, know anyone where from Amazon where I should custom builds from?

It looks like you didn't understand what I was trying to tell you. It doesn't matter if you buy the GPU from the US, Germany, Japan, etc. they all use PCI-E. Also there is no required processor for this, you could run it on i3 or even cheaper, however they would cause a bottleneck to your system.

So you won't be assembling your own PC?

I don't understand this. You have a big card and you can't replace it or ?
Why do you want to replace it, is it broken, do you want to upgrade?
