That model is a Business Class unit.

It was never intended nor designed for a gamer delight.   The max PSU is 320W.  Please make note of the power supply cables to the motherboard. It is a unique setup, used for the Business Class series.  It is shared with the HP 6000 thru 8000 series, again, all Business Class units. You would have to hack to create a franken-style PSU, and make adapters.

Thx for reply my question 

so which is mean I can change the computer case and the power supply but I have to noice the power supply maximum is 320W and the cable must fit to the motherboard right ? And where can I know that power supply cable is fit for the motherboard?

Also if  I got  a power supply is more than 320 w and plug on the motherboard will it be happen something on it ??

and do you have any product and band Suggest for the power supply and the computer case ?

i m so happy you reply my message

@oscarbbho,

I did not recommend you do anything. 

1) I never said change the computer case. Where is that coming from???

2) Your provided links did reference the part number for the 320W PSU.

3) No other but the 240W and 320W PSU listed (part numbers) will work.

You can not plug an ATX PSU into that motherboard.  ATX PSU has a 20/24 pin main.  Your unit has a 6 pin main.

Oh I m sorry I got wrong information about the computer case 

i have check the part numbers list and service guide , I see have any 320 w power supply  but It is for the tower 

so it is not fit for the SFF computer ?

And if i want to buy a power supply where can I buy ?

 thx for your reply

@oscarbbho,

I do not have the dimensions for the 240W versus 320W PSU's.

And thx you a lot for trying help me to fix the problem

@oscarbbho I hope it's not too late to share my information here.

First off i'd like to say that it is totally possible to upgrade the PSU and GPU.I currently have a prodesk 600 g1 and am looking to do the same thing.They make adapters to use standard ATX 24 pin connectors with proprietary ones. I turn office PCs into Gaming PCs and flip them for profit and have experienced these proprietary connector issues a few times. I recommend checking out modDIY.com for an adapter. They typically cost about 15 bucks which is very reasonable and I have never had an issue with them.

If your going to get a GPU I recomend finding a mini/short version of whatever card you're looking to get. The problem im currently running into and the reason I found this forum is because the Graphics card I purchased is way too big for the case and motherboard. By that I mean, it won't fit in the case without modification; Even if I were to cut out the SSD bay, I still have clearance issues because the front usb 3.0 header and Sata ports are located right behind the PCIe slot. Had I bought a shorter card this wouldn't be an issue.

On the other hand, I'm not sure if you can swap the mobo into a different case. That's what I came here to find out.

Anyway, I hope this information helps and it's not too late.

Yes u can upgrade so I have the same model hp 600g1 I’m running gtx 760 oc and it need minimum of 500w psu
There 2 way
1 there power adapter 24 pin 6 on eBay 6 dollar so u can use any power supply with 24 pin in the motherboard and u can upgrade gpu what ever model.
The second way this what I done I use 2 power supply the 240w for the motherboard and hhd and the other 500w psu for the graphic card
But u have to power the second psu before the main psu so the graphic card get power first and everything work fine for 2 years now.
