I just got a TP01-2234 Pavillion desktop recently and I am looking to upgrade the power supply. I am looking to adding a dedicated graphics card and I know I will need to upgrade the power supply before adding the graphics card. The desktop current power supply is PN L70042-012. Trying to find a 350W or 400W replacement power supply is very confusing due to the 7 pin connector. The current power supply 7 pin connector has 4 wires. One of the four wires is purple. Most of the power supplies I have come across have a 7 pin connector that only has 3 wires and none are purple.
When looking through HP's Part Store and Part Surfer does not find my current power supply. When I type in TP01-2234 in the Part Surfer it comes up with all the parts for my desktop; however, the power supply that is in the parts list is L81008-800. When I put that part number in the Part Surfer nothing comes up.
Would like to know what is a good upgrade power supply for my desktop.
