[letsthrowq]

Hello i have this pc: https://support.hp.com/lv-en/document/c05278837

and i wanna ask if the current 300 W internal ATX E-STAR 6.0 Bronze power supply would be compatible with this motherboard: https://www.asrock.com/MB/AMD/A320M-HDV/index.asp#Specification

@letsthrowq,

Changing to a different motherboard, you lose all rights to the OEM licensed Windows OS.

According to NVidia, you need a minimum of 350W for the GTX 950.

Byt there IS already a gtx 950 and 300w Power supply from hp

Welcome back letsthrowq; From June 2006 until January 2008 I had a custom built PC based on a XION case, MSI 925X Motherboard, GEil memory, Intel 631 proc, a Nvidia 6600 video adapter 2 Western Digital HD's RAID configured 2 optical drives one was the first gen lightscribe from HP with a 400w XION PSU

as long as you have a retail version of any Windows OS (including Windows 10) (this one had XP Professional) you can install it & it'll run on your computer once the motherboard & whatever else you incorporate within your case is operational & if anything happens to it you can use the OS in another machine until Microsoft pulls the plug.

& no offsense to our Geek Trust of which we're both a part of but you'll be able to run whatever apps & programs you wish & you won't have give your machine digital Docolax to get rid of the promotional stuff either

I also enhanced my computing expertise with #5 as well.

good luck & enjoy your ride with it once you built your Cyber Frankenstein

you'll be able to be a stronger member of our community afterwards

Happy Holidays to you & your family!

From what I can tell, the HP OEM GTX 950 in the 510-p111nc is rated by HP for 75 watts.  Retail NVIDIA GTX 950 graphics cards are rated from 90-120 watts.

@letsthrowq,

It is a standard 24pin main with 4pin aux. It will work and also fit into the new tower.

Good luck figuring out the front header wiring.  That will be the challenge.
