Product: HP 280 G3 Base Model PCI Microtower PC
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have a 180W power supply unit (HP). I wanted to upgrade to a 1030 from integrated graphics. I am unsure it will run healthy or not. If not, please recommend me a power supply that will fit and will be sufficient.

@Sqrectri,

 

Welcome to our HP community forum!

 

Your HP 280 G3 Microtower as powered by a 180-watt power supply, can power the GT 1030.  This low-end graphics card only has a 30-watt TDP.  However, there is a 310-watt HP power supply with part number: 936512-001, which can power higher-end graphics cards such as a GTX 1650, GTX 1050, GTX 1050 Ti or an RX 6400.

 

Kind Regards,

Those 310w ones are only found used in my region and new ones cost literally like a corsair 850w psu. Is there any other option rather than replacment parts?

@Sqrectri,

 

As I mentioned, if necessary, your 180-watt power supply can power a GT 1030.

 

Kind Regards,
