I have HP800 G1 SFF 240W
HP 800G1 SMALL FORM ELITEDESK with only 240W HP PSU.
I am looking at low profile GPUs from 35 to 75WATT POWER needed, how much could my PSU handle to be completely safe?
(My favourites so far are GT 1030 with 35W, and RX 550 with 50W-WOULD THEY BE 100% SAFE? GTX 1050 75W
does not seem completely safe to me, as PSU has only 240W (Plus GTX 1050 (TI) LP version seem much more expensive than full sized card).
I do not want blue screens, even less damaged components..
I heard I could look into motherboard PC MANUAL however I did not find this info.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi:
I would not go beyond the GT 1030.
Even that calls for a minimum of a 300W P/S.
But since it only has a max power draw of only 30 Watts, you should be fine with that one.
