Question 1

will this card work in my HP Pavilion p7-1510 with 600w evga power supply?

Accepted Answer

I can't say. I have it in an ASUS system and I have no issues. It has windows 8 standard loaded. IT works for what I use it for which is to do digital mining. If you have a pcie slot and you need a power supply that has an extra cable like the four port cable used to provide power on most atx or mini atx motherboards. This is used to provide additional power to the video card.  Try to find images of the video card to see the extra cable needed for power, it is at the top of the card. Hope this helps.

Question 2

I have a system I recently had built with the following specs-
Mid Tower Case
500 W EVGA 80 Plus PS
MSI A78M-E45 Motherboard
AMD A-10 5800k Trinity
8GB G.Skill 2133 DDR3
500GB Western Digital HDD
DVD Burner

I would like to know if I would be able to put this video card in my system without having to buy a larger power supply? And would their be any compatibility issues with the APU?

Accepted Answer

like those who answered before, you shouldn't have any issues running this card with that setup, BUT if you plan on doing any upgrades in the future, that PSU should be the first thing you upgrade, you will be cutting it close with your current setup, and anything more power hungry might bring your usage over the safe limit and result in your computer shutting down when under load. the card I have uses around 87W with another 130W from my cpu, but I went with a 750W PSU. I highly recommend researching the max usage of each component and adding them up to see what your maximum possible usage could be, if it adds up to more than 80% of your power supply's capacity, you'll need to upgrade it. power supplies become unreliable when pulling over 80% of their capacity.

Question 3

Hello, I have a new HP desktop I need to run two HP monitors for spreadsheets, internet, one screen a CAD program, the other my materials program.  Sometimes I want to run a third monitor for watching tv.  Can this card handle three monitors at once with only one being video?

Accepted Answer

I have not tried a third monitor, but I have only had consistently good results with the DVI output with my two monitors. The box states:
"Use of 3 or more displays with AMD Eyefinity technology requires a DisplayPort-capable panel or an AMD Eyefinity validated dongle."

Then it directs you to AMD's site (broken link). From what I found prior to buying it will do 2 legacy signals, but not three. I do not have the data on that. All that said, it does two monitors like a champ. Some games it blacks out the second monitor and some it doesn't. Some it does it most of the time, but not all the time.

Question 4

Can i run THREE monitors on this? One HDMI, one DVI, and one VGA, through a DVI to VGA adapter?

Accepted Answer

Display output for 3 monitors, HDMI, DLDVI-I and DLDVI-D.  You could possibly use an adapter for the others you mentioned.

Question 5

HD7770 vs r7 260 use PSU ?

Accepted Answer

Yes both need a PSU cable

Question 6

Will this work with a thermal Take 430w PSU?

Accepted Answer

My R7 260 has never worked properly, so is no longer in use. I don't know if its a problem with AMD, AsRock, or MSI - I tried a number of solutions, but never got it to work reliably. I also had the same experience with the R7 260x. FWIW, I have PC Power & Cooling 500 watt PSU's.
