Power Supply Upgrade

[DaltonG]

I was looking to upgrade my pc and was wondering if I could use this psu in my system.

Greetings,

Welcome back to the forum.

I am not a HP employee.

The PSU in your post does not have PCIe connectors. You need this connection to power a higher wattage GPU.

The biggest problem facing you in upgrading the PSU is your MB and PSU are proprietary HP components.

What GPU do you want to upgrade to? To the best of my knowledge your PC's chassis can only handle a 400 watt SFF PSU provided by HP at this point in time. I have not seen any retail PSU's having the correct motherboard (MB) connections that will work with your system.

I wanted to upgrade to a 1060 3gb but considering all of these parts in my system are made by hp it is making it very confusing.

Hi DaltonG,

A 1060 requires a 400 watt PSU with one six pin PCIe connection.

HP has a 400 watt PSU that is compatible with your MB but I don't know if this part has the required six pin PCIe connector.

The part number is L04618-800.

You can get this part at HP Part Surfer (Link).

This is all I can tell you.
