Solved: Power Supply Upgrade? - HP Support Community

Perla1015 · ‎08-04-2020

I have a Slimline 270-p013wb (Product Number: Z5L80AA) I have upgraded it's RAM and Graphics Card and I fear that the Power it uses will exceed the 180W that the Power Supply Unit has. So I want to upgrade it.

Is it possible? If it is possible I do not know where to find ones that'll fit. I've been looking at Power supplies and they all seem too big for my small computer.

@Perla1015,

The HP 270-p013wb , as shown here. has a Lubin motherboard. The motherboard is a standard ATX PSU, 24 pin main, 4 pin auxiliary plugs.

1) Please verify accuracy.

2) What is the exact graphic card you installed. Manufacturer and model number.

Must users put in a 20-30W GT 1030 card. So I want to document what you installed.

Here is a standard ATX measurement. Supplies over 650W are not 5.5, their 6.3"

@Perla1015,

IMHO, your OK with the existing 180W PSU. I will include the GT 710 (5.7" long) for the Lubin MB.

Thank you for the reply. Deeply appreciated. 😀
