Hi, I'm wanting to do a few upgrades to my system, mainly add an extra sata ssd and swap out my gtx 1650 super with a radeon rx 6600. On pc part picker when i add all the new components together it comes to 349 watts when i have a 350 watt power supply, that is using a mini atx motherboard for calculating the power draw. So if anyone knows the power draw of the hp 8860 mother board that would be great, otherwise i would want to know where i can get the cheapest 400 watt hp motherboard. Thank you in advance.

Hi @Alex853
Welcome to the HP Forum.
You might be able to run the Radeon RX 6600 with the HP 350 watt PSU if it has a PCIe eight pin supplemental graphics card connector.
The SATA SSD is not going to be a big power draw component.
You can only use a HP power supply in your PC due to case dimensions and power supply connections to the MB. The 400 watt PSU (L04618-800) is not available at the HP Parts Store. Check eBay for HP 400 watt PSU options.
But the 500 watt power supply (L05757-800) is available at HP Part Surfer .
