    Memory Which would be fastest/best RAM MEMORY possible for HP800 G1 SFF computer?

    By not having XMP option, and I think two of my four GENESIS 1600 RAMs do not work at full 1600 speed (I once looked at GPU-Z software), how much percent is then RAM slower in computer like mine? Are we speaking closer to 1% or closer to 10%? I do not know where to find and look in PC MANUAL...

    Memory Which would be fastest/best RAM MEMORY possible for HP800 G1 SFF computer?

    XMP seems it could speed things up, question is how much-well I cannot set it up in HP OEM anyways... Big improvement after turning on XMP. I gave 5% as example, I have no clue how much XMP could improve speeds in reality :) If system slows down 1600 RAM to 1333 RAM, do all RAM SLOTS work...

    GPU GPU for HP 800 G1 SFF with only 240W power (GT 1030 passive from Amazon would be good??)

    Do you think I could safely, even long term, add AMD RX550 with 50W to my 240W PSU and SFF case? https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/compare/Radeon-RX-550-vs-GeForce-GT-1030-vs-Intel-HD-4600/3761vs3757vs2451 It seems more powerful and worthy of upgrade than GT1030...

    GPU Graphics card upgrade for Small Form Factor computer HP800 with only 240W PSU

    Seems very tempting as PASSMARK is more than 1000 points bigger than GT1030, which would make it a more worthwhile upgrade, as it is then almost 5 times 'faster' than my integrated GPU and price not much bigger...

    GPU Graphics card upgrade for Small Form Factor computer HP800 with only 240W PSU

    I have i5 4590 3.3GHZ, I do not have HDD, only SSD Samusng evo 860. I have no doubt that GT1030 would work, but AMD RADEON RX550 which has better benchmark than GT1030 (or some other GPU) with 50W would be an overkill for my 240W PSU, right? 1050(ti) that needs 75W (or some other GPU 75W)...

    GPU GPU for HP 800 G1 SFF with only 240W power (GT 1030 passive from Amazon would be good??)

    Well I would be playing games from about year 2015 and older, and I would also like to try ANDROID and iOS EMULATORS for games, which seem demanding..I read that GT 1030 is not much better than my HD 4600, maybe just 3 times better, but it might help for that? I now have 4x4GB KINGSTON HYPERX...

    GPU GPU for HP 800 G1 SFF with only 240W power (GT 1030 passive from Amazon would be good??)

    I do not think this would be smart, as far as I read in my few days 'research' about this. All 75W GPUs have specification for 300W PSU or more and I have seen many of them! HP800 G1 with 240W is made only for 35W GPUs as far as I know (and even then there is not much reserve just in case)...

    GPU GPU for HP 800 G1 SFF with only 240W power (GT 1030 passive from Amazon would be good??)

    2236 is passMARK for GT1030 at https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+GT+1030, which in reality makes it about 3 times faster for games than my integrated HD 4600 with PASSMARK 720, right? But which version of GT 1030 is it benchmarked? I does not say whether it is GDDR5.. Here...

    Memory Which would be fastest/best RAM MEMORY possible for HP800 G1 SFF computer?

    Now I have 2x4GB KINGSTON HYPERX GENESIS 1600 RAM, and I now ordered 2x4GB of the same RAM so I will have 16GB of GENESIS RAM. (By the way-Unfortunatelly I cannot setup XMP in BIOS of OEM computer, do you know some other way or some software with which I could turn on XMP and have all 4 slots of...

    Thank you for info. I was looking at this 30W GPU card https://www.zotac.com/us/product/graphics_card/zotac-geforce-gt-1030-2gb-gddr5-hdmi-dvi-low-profile#spec This card would be recommended for my computer? I read online it's very loud, which I do not like. It says here (and with few other...
