PSU and Graphics Card Compatability

[Isaias1234]

I want to upgrade my RX 550 2gb GPU to a Gtx 1650 super but what Im concerned about is that will my PSU be able to support the 1650, it has 4 pins but I know its possible to use a 6 pin adapter for it. Ive researched some stuff up and found out about the 300w version that supports the 1650 super but Im not sure if mine can, my psu version is the L03980-800 and the psu that supports the 1650 is L04618-800 the reason why I dont just buy this one is because im on a budget of just the gpu.

@Isaias1234 , welcome to the forum.

Here are the Specifications for the GTX 1650 Super: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/graphics-cards/gtx-1650-super/?ncid=afm-chs-44270&ranMID=44270&...

You will have to click on the tab titled "SPECS" at the top of the page.

It states that a PSU with a minimum of 350W is recommended.  Also, it requires a 6-pin PCIe power connector because the card uses 100W of power.  I don't recommend that you buy the card unless you upgrade the PSU to the 500W (L05757-800).  It is recommended that you use a PSU with 100W to 150W more than the card requires to allow for peak needs.

Here is a Power Supply Cross-Reference Guide to help you find the PSU: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Knowledge-Base/Power-Supply-Cross-Reference-for-specific-model...
