hello, I would like to change the power supply, but I do not know which one because I am going to improve the graphics card and I need more power. My current power supply is 180 watts and the graphics card I use is gtx 1050 2gb and I would like to upgrade to 1660 super 6gb. what power supply will be needed if I currently have an hp d16-180p1b and my motherboard is HP 843B (U3E1) so I do not know what power supply to use in order not to destroy the motherboard.

@helixpl123 , welcome to the Community.

 

The motherboard in your computer is HP proprietary. It has a 4-pin power connector instead of a standard 24-pin ATX power connector. You will have to buy any PSU upgrade from HP.  HP has two upgrades that may be compatible with your motherboard: 400W (04618-800) and 500W (L05757-800).  I suggest that you contact HP Customer Support to see if they have either available in your country.
