Hello - my son would like to upgrade the graphics card for his Aspire X 1430G desktop. His operating system is Windows 7. Here is his question - how does he find out if a graphics card he wants to buy is compatible with his computer? He has tried to find the user manual with all the PC specs, but cannot. Does anyone know how he can find out which graphics card will fit in his computer? 

Thank you! Catherine M.

    Acer Aspire X1430G Specifications:

    http://panam.acer.com/acerpanam/desktop/2011/acer/aspire/AspireX1430/AspireX1430sp2.shtml

     

    The small case will require a low profile (LP) card for the expansion slot.

     

    We shipped the X1430G with various cards (varies by region) including the following:


    GT405 (GT218) 1GB DDR3 64BITS DVI-I + DP LP        VG.PCPT4.008
    GT405 (GT218) 1GB DDR3 64BITS DVI-I + DP LP        VG.PCPT4.010
    GT405=NV315 512MB DDR3 SDI DVI/HDMI LP           VG.PCPT4.014
    GT405 (GT216) 512MB 64BITS DDR3 DVI + HDMI LP   VG.PCPT4.016

    GT520 1GB 64BIT DDR3 DVI + HDMI LP         VG.PCPT5.202
    GT520 1GB 64BIT DDR3 DVI + HDMI LP         VG.PCPT5.204

    GT530 2GB 128BIT DDR3 DVI + HDMI LP        VG.PCPT5.302
    GT530 2GB 128BIT DDR3 DVI + HDMI LP        VG.PCPT5.304

    HD6450 1GB SDDR3 64BITS DVI-I + HDMI (LP)    VG.APC64.523
    HD6450 1GB SDDR3 64BITS DVI-I + HDMI (LP)    VG.APC64.525
    HD6450 1GB SDDR3 64BITS DVI-I + HDMI (LP)    VG.ECS64.5A2
    HD6450 512MB SDDR3 SDI DVI-I/HDMI/LP         VG.APC64.504
    HD6450 512MB SDDR3 64BITS DVI-I + HDMI (LP) VG.APC64.506

    HD6570 1GB 128BITS SDDR3 HYNIX DVI-I/HDMI LP BRACKET    VG.APC65.704

    What card you will be able to install will also be dependant upon the size of the power supply in the system.
