Installing a Nvidia Geforce GTX 750TI video card

Clive Alive · Jan 9, 2015

I used my PCs as crunchers for both the World Community Grid and GPUGRID.net as well as doing emails and other office related chores.

I have a Dell Studio which came out in 2009 that I have upgraded with Windows 7 SP1. It has a quad core Intel 8200 cpu which is not hyper-threaded. I plan to continue to use it to crunch WCG despite it is not hyper-threaded.

Here is my plan: I am planning to replaced the video card with a Nvidia Geforce GTX750Ti graphics card so I can use this system to crunch for GPUGRID.net on their medical projects.

I would appreciate getting feedback on the soundness of this plan and whether heat from the video card would be an issue.

you should be able to install a gtx 750 ti in it....but i can not find any information on which version of pci-e you have on motherboard ...they said pci-e X16 thats it?

i assume is the pci-e 2.0 ...so is backward compatible

and your psu should be able to drive the system power demand so far

so go for it if you are tight in budget
