HP Z1 ENTRY TOWER G5 P/N: 7RQ47UT
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi, I recently purchased the HP Z1 ENTRY TOWER G5 with the hope that I would be able to do a few upgrades for gaming. I managed to install a I5-9600k without any issues. And after verifying under the specifications that the 250w PSU could be upgraded to a 500w, I was also hoping to install a decent graphics card as well.

 

I'm fully aware the traditional ATX PSUs won't work in this case due to the proprietary 7pin power connector, but I am still unsure of where I would actually find the right 500w PSU that was mentioned to be compatible for this particular system. I also have no idea where I would be able to purchase the upgrade. I checked the HP store but wasn't able to find any information about this. So any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
