HP G5470UK - upgrade the power supply

I want to install a more powerful graphics card but told me that before I do so I need to upgrade the PSU in my G5470uk of the machine.  Currently of 300w, what would be the recommended size of a power supply for this particular stock pc - there is no other upgrade again.

Thanks in advance

According to the power requirements of the video card you are considering, the Corsair CX430, CX500, CX600, CX500M, or CX600M should meet your needs. These power supplies are highly recommended and are known to adapt to most HP consumer PCs.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

  • Pavillion 500-214: I have a HP Pavilion 500-214 and need to upgrade the power supply to support a new video card

    I'm upgrading my video card, and the other needs at least 400w.  The existing PSU is only 300w.  What is a power supply compatible to be installed in the Pavilion 500-214?

    Well, we meet again.

    While the minimum requirement is power for most video cards 400W, I always offer at least 500W; 600W is even better.  This will allow a high maximum operating power.  A modular power supply is good in a medium-sized business, because just use cables that are absolutely necessary.  This allows for better circulation of air in the case.

    This is a power supply that should work for you.  You should check the measurements of the existing PSU (5.9 x 5.5 x 3.4 inches) with the measures of the new power supply to ensure that it will not go in the space provided.  The PSU is the backbone of the computer, this is not the place to save money.

  • HP Elite 1090-T H8: seeking your suggestions for upgrading the power supply for a new video card

    I have a HP EliteH8-1090 t who is about a year, but with an AMD Radeon HD 6570 low power graphics card and a 450W power supply. I want to upgrade the 650W power to support the installation of a replacement graphics card.

    I tried to replace the HP 450W with Corsair TX650 and Corsair TX850 food. The system appears to power (DVD drawer opens and closes, the hard disks spin, fans run) with either a Corsair, he's stuck at this point. My system is unable to enter start mode when either power supply is installed - it seems stuck in a mode of seed, and the monitor still asleep.

    Can someone please advise on a compatible power supply for HP system? I'm puzzled by why a simple exchange of a power supply does not work. Just like a record, the system has a card mother Pegatron IPMTB-K (Truckee).

    Thank you!

    No problem. I wish you good luck with it. On a positive note the HX650 is a much better than the TX650 ILA unit internal quality and what I like is the best it's quite fan fan much quieter than the TX650 while helping your organization of cable being modular and help keep temperatures cooler in your computer case.

  • HP Envy 750-116: can anyone recommend an upgrade of the power supply for HP Envy 750-116?

    I have a HP Envy Office 750-116 and need to replace the power supply 300W with an upgrade to a more powerful.

    I was look at is CORSAIR CXM CX550M 550W 80 PLUS BRONZE or the EVGA SuperNOVA 650 G2 80 series. I have kniow that they are all two excellent PSU.

    My concern is with the connector that the 750-116 uses to the optical drive. Looks like the kind of connector you see go to a laptop, DVD player. (It of really small and is marked P5)  I have a spare part HP 460W PSU I could use, but it is not a connector that would work. So I hesitate to buy Corsair or the EVGA without knowing if I'll be able to plug into this weird DVD connector in the HP Envy.

    Someone out there has run into that and find an answer?

    Bill

    Optical drives are still a thing? Wow! Any ways OP. On these new machines. HP uses a slim with an owner drive

    Connector for it. You won't find it on the other PSU. You will have to abandon the drive if you replace the stock PSU.

  • The power supply for Dell Precision Workstation upgrade

    Recently, I posted a question regarding the upgrade of that food to a XPS 8700 and it seems that I can use ATX power supplies and replace as necessary to these computers. But now I am also thinking of dell precision workstations, because I want to have a few relatively high-performance computing done on my system, what it seems as a workstation would be better, as the work of Dell Precision T1700 Mini Tower. But I can't understand anything on the question of whether I can pass the integrated power supply so that it exceed 700w. Thus,.

    (1) any reflection on the power supply upgrade, whether possible?

    (2) are there jobs integrated with a high (greater than 700watts) power?

    (3) in the future, if I wanted to know if I could make these upgrades to other Dell machines, where can I find out about this?

    Hi Daniel191919,

    Yes, most power supplies from Dell can be improved with standard parts. But honestly, the easiest would be to get a precise work with the PSU W 1100 high range.

  • The upgrade of the power supply.

    I recently bought a vido GTX580 and discovered after I got that my wimpy 250 watt power supply will not manage it. The card requires at least a power of 600W at 42 amps on the 12V rails. The card must also 8-pin and a 6 'PCI Express' connectors from the power supply. Could someone recommend a diet that works with my hp P6774Y desktop computer? Also, it is quite easy to replace?  Thank you!

    Thanks to all who responded!  I just got back from my local Best Buy store, and they had an 850 Watt Thermaltake 'Black Widow' food on sale for $100,00 and I bought. After reading the comment by wb2001 about the depth of power supply, I'm a little worried about that, but I don't know until what I opened the box (the physical dimensions are not printed on the box) and try to mount it. Wish me luck!  :-)

    Thanks again!

    It's a high-end desktop PC.  No doubt he will come with an ATX PSU with 5VDC, 12VDC and 3.3Vdc output rails.  I'm not familiar with the Interior of your PC, so I'll give you two General configurations of PSU layout.

    1. design intermediary such as PC Power & Cooling with one or two 80 mm fans to expel air through the PSU.

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16817341011

    2 down-draft design as Cosair 450VX with a 120 mm or more huge blowing fan case in the heat sink and the motherboard of the PSU.

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16817139003

    If the power supply is at the top, back or side of the PC, then a power supply down-project will do a better job to remove heat from the PC.  If the power supply is in the middle of the PC, then go with an intermediate design.  This design will generate more noise at higher load, since the smallest fan should turn more quickly to transport the same amount of air in a 150 mm or 120 mm fan.

    Looking for a nominal 80% efficiency POWER supply.  Detachable power cable is a bonus to maximize the air flow inside the PC.  Make sure the power supply is delivered with the right type of power connector to drive you GPU.  All modern units of quality with 20 + 4 and 4 + 4 key cards.  If you do not plan to run graphic dual with a high range GPU, so it doesn't matter what quality 80 watter 380 power SUPPLY Antec, Corsair, Enermax and Seasonic PSU will be enough.  You will need to back up POWER supply to 450-550W, if you run two graphics cards high-end.

    A good 450W PSU is a good compromise because it is more effective when the PC is idle and has enough power to run two GPUS.  If you want to save $ on electricity, then get a smaller power supply (range 300-350W) because these units reach the level of efficiency of 80% around release of 65 to 70 watts.

    Hello, everyone! After purchasing my HP not too long ago, I decided that I wanted to get updates for it. I intend to turn it into a computer game later, but for now I start small.

    I'm still a little wet behind the ears when it comes to computer hardware, so I would greatly appreciate any input on my decisions for improvement - especially if my power supply and graphics card will adapt and be compatible or if the marks are bad.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    I don't foresee any problems with your choices.

    Relatives on the slot PCI-E x 16 must be vacant.  Examine the characteristics of the motherboard.

    These "how-to" HP articles should be useful.

    TIP: Unlock and slide the optical drive forward before you remove and install the power supply. This helps facilitate the removal and installation of the power supply, but it is not mandatory.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Forget the increase in ram.  The improvement of the performance would be negligible.

    Look at the power supply Corsair CX600 .  This power supply has enough amperage to run the NVIDIA GTX 570 and most NVIDIA cards less than the GTX 570.

    Review the specifications of performance ATI and NVIDIA . Look at the specifications of strip memory bandwidth and level of DirectX support.

  • HP Pavilion 500-326na: upgrade of power supply for HP Pavilion 500-326na

    Last year, I bought a HP Pavilion 500-326na. I now want to update its graphics and to do this, I need to power level. I want to upgrade to a CX500, but the specs say that his current power is "external". I don't know what this means, and indeed, I don't know if I will be able to upgrade. I see no reason why I shouldn't be, but everything I've seen only offers assistance on internal types.

    Thanks for any help.

    Hello

    Look at the power supply cord.  If you have a device of black brick similar to those for portable computers, then you have an external power supply. PC with external cannot be upgraded with the installation of an internal power supply as a Corsair CX500 according to HP internal.
