Do not forget to upgrade your PSU to 500 W. So my advice is to check your favorite store for their return policy and then try the GTX 970 yourself! Do not let other HP volunteers/users experience in this forms discourage you from trying it out! I only have been using it for two days and hopefully I will not run into problems in the future! !447&authkey=!APzSFQeV0Il-hfU&v=3&ithint=photo. Here is two pictures from my system information showing that I am running HP BIOS version 6 and the GTX 970! I shut off and on my computer about ten times, just to make sure the system is stable and still no problems!! I also played a couple of minutes with supreme commander2 at 60 FPS and still no problem! I played a couple of minutes with divinity: origin sin with ultra graphics at 80 FPS and still no problem! On MSI website for the MSI Z270I, they're driver nearest that date is v. The current version we all have is E7A66IZ1.4QF (4.QF) dated. I ran all 3-DMark benchmarks, more than twice with no problems! I am interested in updating the BIOS of the C1's MSI Z270I motherboard. To my surprise after installing it, It booted up with no problems!! I installed the latest drivers from Zotac website and then rebooted the system, but still no problems! I bought the Zotac GTX 970 from Best Buy thinking there might be a very small chance it will work, and if it doesn't I will return it! I decided to go against the advice which I received from this thread and other HP forum. Figure 1: Identifying BIOS version in System Information. In the System Information window, look for BIOS Version/Date (Figure 1).

In the Run dialog box, type msinfo32 and press Enter key. After I read Best Buy Canada return policy. Identifying BIOS version using System Information in Microsoft Windows: Press Windows logo key + R key on the keyboard.
