Author Topic: Is a computer that has a Nvdia GT 220 graphics card, able to use/fit a GTS 250?  (Read 1284 times)

But look.
What do I do?
uhh, not sure what you're getting at when you say but look, all you have to do is replace the card and reconnect the power supply cables, they're the same pins.

Those are the same, lol.

I need this explained first.
How can they have different connects, but work fine anyway?

Oh wait what.

They're the same, it's just the angle. Trust me.

This is his card.
This is the GTS 450.

That would be what he is talking about.

That is not his card, and that is the exact same connector on both of them.

I don't see where you're going, they'll both work if you plug them into the same PCI-e slot.

Oh damn that would be the wrong card.

Fixed it.

My GTS 450 came with a thing to convert VGA to that.

I'd buy this one, don't mind that it's on the Dell website, they only sell it:

GTS 450 IS dual-slot though. Be sure you have space.

I had to move another little phone line card thingy to be able to fit mine.

Well, all that matters is if you have the right cables from your power supply and a pci slot on you mobo which you do, but if you want to get a more powerful card for a bit more just go with a gtx260 or the gts 450, either one will work.

If you get the one I said, it comes with most everything you need. Comes with a power supply cable, a CD to install DirectX 11 and drivers, and as I said earlier, a thing to make it so you can plug your VGA monitor in if you didn't already have one.



Specifically I think he is talking about those two connectors in the middle.

I don't know much about computers, so someone else should explain more.

If that's the case, every GPU out on the market comes with convertors for DVI (what's shown there) to VGA.

Yep, case closed.
