Hello Wessman, On paper, it seems like the card should work with your computer. I know there have been people with an HP P7 trying to upgrade just like you, but they were unsuccessful with their PC actually running the GPU. They were able to install the GPU, the GPU fans would spin when PC was turned on, but the PC would not run the GPU. There might be a problem with the old BIOS that you need to upgrade. I'm not sure if these people tried this or if it worked. I'd make sure that there is an updated BIOS that allows the GPU to be detected by your PC before making the purchase.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I would expect issues with using this card and a 550 watt power supply. I would not use this card with anything less than a 750 w supply. Make sure your case has adequate fans.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Does not work in this machine. To big for the machine. I also did not try to re-work the power cords or anything but they were hitting the fans on this card
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
