Hi!
I was just wondering if the RMi Series™ RM850i — 850 Watt 80 PLUS® Gold Certified Fully Modular PSU (UK Plug) would be able to fit in a HP Pavilion 550-256na Desktop?
If not then can someone recommend me a powerful PSU that would fit in it.
Thanks

Greetings,
Compare the measurements on the 850 to your existing power supply.
I just installed a Corsair RM650x in an Envy 810-150se.
An Rm750x was too long. It would fit but you could not make the modular cable connections to the power supply as the optical drive was in the way.
A 600 watt to 650 watt power supply should provide more than enough power needed to run whatever you are planning to add to the system.
Only you can verify this by checking all of the measurements. You may have a problem installing a 650 watt power supply.
Cheers!
