Hi there! I have a HP Pavilion p7-1240 (Link Below). Stock unit nothing changed what so ever. But I want to add a HDMI port to this computer.

So I need a GPU that will run on a 300 Watt PSU, has a HDMI port and can out perform the integrated graphics (AMD Radeon HD 7660d (0x9901). only reason I want it to out perform even if its just slightly is because I don't want a performance decrease since Integrated video is not available if a graphics card is installed.

I do have a

Sapphire ATI radeon HD 5770

Graphics card laying around not being used I'm just worried the PSU isn't enough for the GPU.

I would be great full for any help/information on the matter.

Yeah both will be fine, just suggested the Zotac as it was a good bit cheaper, and still a 750Ti.

GTX 750 would be the best 'Coz it uses only 300 watts with great performance and also has an hdmi port .

The 750 Ti is better, there is no doubt about that.

Nither use 300w, they use 60w. They require a 300w psu for the system. The 750 ti is better performance than the 750. Both have HDMI ports.
