I wanted to know if I can upgrade my pc power supply to about 500 or 600w and if it is possible which power supply should I get? The pc is a Hp Compaq elite 8200 SFF

@Kai24 -- in the HP Warehouse, click this link: HP PartSurfer
to see:
Power Supply
-N/A- 613762-001 Power supply unit (PSU) - Four 12VDC output connections, 240-Watts - Has a EPA 90% efficiency rating
-N/A- 613763-001 Power supply unit (PSU) - Rated at 12VDC output, 240-Watts output - For Small Form Factor (SFF) series
-N/A- 613765-001 Standard power supply unit (PSU) - Four 12VDC output connections, 320-Watts total power - For Convertible Microtower (CMT) series (Standard)
Unfortunately for you, the "N/A" means that you cannot purchase any of these 3 power-supplies from HP.
Note that the highest-wattage is only 320 Watts -- not what you asked for.
I recommend that you take your computer to a local owner/operator computer-store, for that person to look at the physical dimensions of your current power-supply, and the number of power-connectors, and then recommend a higher-wattage unit.

Hi Itsmyname,
With your indulgence, you are quite right that HP doesn't provide a PSU upgrade for this SFF.
However, that hasn't stopped some very imaginative out-of-the-box thinking folks to come up with viable and safe power solutions.
Just as with my HP Pro 6300 SFF, there are desktop-specific ATX power adapters available to get around the proprietary HP PSU configurations. See, for example my rig: Solved: Upgrading HP Compaq Pro 6300 SFF - Page 5 - HP Support Community - 8184303
@Kai24 , just search for "ATX 24 pin to 6 pin Adapter Cable for HP Elite 8200" in Amazon, AliExpress, eBay, etc. and you'll be greeted with numerous seller options.
[EDIT:] -The power adapter cable for your rig, as chance would have it, is actually the same for my HP 6300 Pro SFF:
Good luck!
