Product: HP Compaq Pro 8300 SFF
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have been eyeing the MSI GTX 1050 ti low profile card to put into my 8300 SFF, among other upgrades, (cooler, ram, etc. etc.),  but I also was considering a  ZOTAC GTX 1080 ti MINI, but, I don't know whether or not the PSU in the 8300 SFF has enough power to run it, as well as whether it has the necessary connectors to put into the card. If anyone can give me some tips and answers that would be greatly appreciated.

the 6300 pro SFF could run high power video cards IF YOU CAN FIND A WAY TO FIT A ATX POWER SUPPLY IN THE CASE

 

several venders sell the cable that allows you to use a ATX power supply with the motherboards 6 pin power connector

unlike the MINITOWER model of the 6300 pro which has the room for a std sized supply the SFF model uses a non standard supply you might be able to use a "mini ITX" power supply but these are not cheap

at some point it's simply going to be cheaper to replace the current SFF system with a used minitower system.....................
