I'm trying to upgrade my graphics card for my HP pavilion H8 1216.
It currently has an Nivida Geforce 520 gt but I'm planning on changing it out with a Geforce 660 GTX. I already realize I have to change out my power supply because it lacks 450 wattage, and a pcie 6 pin. I've been look at power supplies and found a least one.
The Cooler Master Elite Power - 460W Power Supply (RS460-PSARI3-US).
My question is, would this be compatible with my PC?
Here are my PC's specs from the HP site.
