I'm trying to add a graphics card on this desktop and the power supply is limiting me. I was told that some models came with a 310w psu but I have the 180w psu. I need help with compatible power supplies since they are proprietary. Depending on the compatible psu's I will determine what graphics card I will use. I'm currently looking at a Nvidia GTX 1650, if I am able to use the 310w psu.

@fescobar96 , welcome to the forum.

 

Here is a Power Supply Cross Reference guide compiled by one of our Experts:  https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Knowledge-Base/Power-Supply-Cross-Reference-for-specific-model...

 

While your model is not listed, the M01-F0016 has the same motherboard.  It has a Ryzen 5 processor.  It doesn't show a compatible upgrade for the PSU.

What I got from your reply was that I am stuck with the PSU.

 

Would I be able to get a different case and use a different PSU or is the motherboard also gonna limit me? I read that the motherboard is proprietary. Does that mean I have to use specific PSU?

Thank you in advance.
