Pavilion S5-1400 PSU

[GN108]

Hello,

I am looking for some answers on my HP Pavilion S5-1400t:

1. The motherboard make and model (with a link to the data sheet/specs website if possible)
2. Is there a maximum PSU that this motherboard can support?
3. Is the PSU proprietary? i.e. Will the motherboard only hook up with specific (HP) PSUs?

The goal is to upgrade the Graphics card and presumably the PSU too, so any guidance will be appreciated.

Thank you!

1.  The name of the mobo is H-Joshua -H61-µATX and the part number is 670960-001.

2. No.

3. Yes and Yes.  You bought a slimline and they require a specific PSU footprint, not the standard ATX PSU.

Upgrading the graphics on any PC with a slimline case requires a slimline PSU and a half height PCIe x16 video card.

The upgrade question for your PC's motherboard has been asked and answered on the internet. See the results for the search I did at the URL below.
