GTX 1050 on a HP-8200

Can someone confirm whether the GTX-1050 (4GB) graphic card works fine on a HP-8200 SFF desktop?

i cannot confirm it but if it has a slot (i see 4) that the card will fit, it should work... there's an existing intel GPU (2Meg) that you might be able to disable or maybe you could use both and dual monitors...

i'd do more research, though... i've only looked at the amazon one that came up in my quick search...

I've found a good offer for a GTX-1030, so I am testing it now.
Flying in a detailed scenery, where I used to have 8-10 fps with my former GT630 GPU, I have now 30-35 fps. :D

Yeah, its works very fine. I am also using this, and till now I didn't face any issues. I recommend you to use it, you will not face any difficulty.

GTX 1050 Ti here, too. Note that the GTX 1050 Ti is massively more powerful than the GT 1030 - the latter was designed as a fanless card, which means it's very quiet and doesn't draw a lot of power, at the expense of performance. It should still do a fine job at rendering FlightGear though. The 1050 Ti is more than enough in any case; I am usually CPU-limited with FG, while the GPU is eating out of its nose.
