So, I was reading the Pascal news and I was wondering, if I sell my 960 4gb now, suffer for a few months with my old 650 Ti, and buy a 970 when their prices go down, would that be worth it? Or should I just stick with this?
That's an incredibly complicated procedure that may or may not work out as you want and is not worth all the complications. A 960 is (more than) enough.
Hi! I am thinking of buying this GPU. Right now I have this one, is the new one compatible with my PC if the old/current one works ok? Thanks!
Yes, but wait for the new architectures. And for me to open the Club Of Neversleepers. Naturally you can do that as well, depending on who will fall asleep first. (Fight, fight, fight!) What's your exact powersupply even?
There should be something like "500W" or "MAX500W" on it. Anyway, the newer GPU there needs less power than your old one. I'd still wait for the new cards to come out.
Just a question is there a way to boost the power of the Intel HD graphics 4000 on my laptop? Or can I somehow change it with a diffrent one?
A. Nope. Only thing you can do is enable 'high performance' instead of 'balanced' in the HD Graphics Control Panel. B. If you have a laptop (for example one of those Clevo gaming laptops) where there you could configure a dedicated GPU, it's possible. Maybe. Otherwise, no.
in an elitebook. No to both. Hd4000 is built into the cpu, non interchangeable on any machine. Elitebooks don't get a gpu socket either, models with one have it soldered on motherboard --- Post updated --- in an elitebook. No to both.

There were versions with Quadro/FirePro cards as far as I know. Isn't there room on the MoBo to add one? Someone on a forum stated that one could upgrade: http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/hp-elitebook-8570w-gpu-upgrade-options.718702/ I know that one could change/upgrade the GPU in the older Dell Latitudes (Nvidia NVS GPUs). But those were versions which had a dGPU installed from the factory, not only iGPU.
I opened it up and it looks quite similar to the ASUS Pro64J I have lying around here (Battery Is dead and overheats alot) and the Graphics Card is a ATI and I read that some fit into my HP so I was hoping that I can do it because some versions had a ATI Card
well you can of course try finding where the gpu slots in on the elitebook. It's amazing how much a person can work out for themselves rather than relying on forums for support
So just found out that the 8570p has the same Mainboard as the 8570w so the Nvidia Card should fit or am I wrong?
One thing I hate, hate, HATE. About Windows 10, is how it automatically installs drivers, even if you uninstall the driver it reinstalls it. Even worse when Windows installs a driver that doesn't quite work for some reason. And no matter what you do, Windows still installs the driver, even if you edit the settings so that it shouldn't, it still does.
So yours is an 8570P or W? -Find your GPU slot (as 6677 stated) -Make sure there are cooling possibilities (heatsink, fan, ...) which you can connect to the GPU -Find a compatible GPU. These things can be really expensive: We're talking about professional Quadro GPUs here. -Install it. -Profit. Maybe the easiest thing to do is just sell it and get a laptop with a GT750m or faster.. At least, I used an HP with that GPU for a while and it handled BeamNG just fine. Make sure you get one with GDDR5 memory.
I read that the cheapest m-card that is a serious improvement over the integrated chip is the GTX 960M, correct me if that's wrong.
Depends on the iGPU. The 750M is a nice upgrade over the HD4600. The 960M is a nice upgrade over the HD520. Tried it on i7 3540M, HD4000 and 768p. Can not recommend it.
