Pavillion TP001-2000a
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I want to upgrade the 180w PSU in my  Pavilion Desktop PC TP01-2000a which has the Erica6 motherboard for a dedicated graphics card.

 

Is the 500w (L05757-800) PSU a compatible upgrade?

@Robbie221 -- I presume that you are buying a new graphics adapter card. How much wattage will it require? 

 

Your current processor probably consumes about 65 Watts. Your fans & RAM & motherboard & disk-drive & CD/DVD & USB devices each consume some wattage. So, you might have up to 100 Watts not currently being used. Is that enough?
