Types of POWER connectors required on HP Pavilion t550.uk

I need to replace the power supply of my HP Pavilion t550.uk to accommodate a new graphics that require 300 Watts. The PSU existing according to me is a BESTEC ATX-250-12Z REC: C.

Open the machine up there seem to be 5 existing connections:

(1) CD and DVD - these two players have a rectangular connector with sections of 4 x 1 and 8 wires

(2) hard - this is very similar to the above but maybe a bit bigger in size.

(3) motherboard - a large rectangular connector with sections of 10 x 2. Many sons.

(4) motherboard - a connector 2 x 2 with 4 wire square.

The new graphics card also requires a 4 pin connection.

The existing power supply dimensions are 6 inches x 5 1/2 in. x 3 1/2 inches.

I was considering an Antec E380 or something similar, but I am concerned about the type of connectors that I need. I think that the existing motherboard connectors are compatible with most modern power supplies, but I'm not sure about the others.

Other http://www.itwinkle.com/be25posuba.html , which is not the same exact model, I can't find any online form describing the connectors on the Bestec. Here, they are described as 4 x PATA.

-L'Antec has 6 x Molex (4 x SATA, which look completely different from me). http://www.Antec.com/connectors.php?ProdID=04639

-The Cosair 430CX has 3 x 4 Pin peripheral connectors (4 x SATA).

Are these Molex or 4 peripheral connectors that I need or do I have to seek alternatives or adapters might be?

Would appreciate some advice.

Thank you

Yes, it's a 4 pin Molex. The same as that used to power the old hard disks IDE/PATA.

  • Trying to find the plug and the power upgrade in a HP Pavilion Elite m9177c

    First time posting here so I hope I chose the right place for my question.

    I currently have a HP Pavilion Elite m9177c as a tempoarily computer until I can build my own. He was works fine but I found that this computer for all its good specs has only a 8500GT no idea why parent obtained through costco and gave it to use when my dell power supply gone bad and must be replaced.

    So I chose an EVGA 9800 GT

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16814130534

    But I discovered that my HP probably has just one power 350 watts (checked online still need to open the case to be exact, before buying it) while the card requires 400 watts accoring to the details.

    I tried to call HP support for dimensions and wattage supply type, but it was a chore. One guy said all the power supplies have the same size (maybe he meant the hp ones for my computer, but he never said so), another guy told me that without a guarantee that he could not even tell me the power and the third Lady said my dimensions are 9.6 inches by 9.6 inches or 24 centimeters. (do not know if she was trying to give me a microatx measure and I misunderstood the 3 as a 9 or what.) And the first guy claims it was a micro-ATX Power Supply, while the other comes from say atx.

    So after some googling I found these links

    1. http://www.censuspc.com/HP-Hewlett-Packard-5188-2859-350-Watt-SIRAH-350-Replacement-Desktop-PC-Power... - this seems to be what I have but he calls it the ATX 12v version

    2.http://www.911forpcs.com/5188-2859.html - this seems to be something I could go too, but I don't know if I might be better off with a full-on name brand like Corsair.

    3.http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01736200 - this is a different model of Pavilion Elite but so far it looks like mine how. The same video, for some reason any does not exist on the page for my model.

    I found two feeds that seem to fit the same dimensions as in link #1, but a larger 0.1 inch on a measure, but I hope that my hp case allows a slight wiggleroom.

    1. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139028 - a 600 watt Corsair

    2. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817153151 - a 530 Watt Thermaltake

    Was just curious to know if anyone has better info on what exactly is in my case, and what is the best food to buy. I still intend opening the case before buying but just moved and such and call help tech kind of wore out me. I wanted to anyway just say that the computer has been much less the thing of the graphics card. Thank you

    Hello

    Type HP power supply (PSU) dimensions for cabinets mid-turn are: 5.9 by 3.4 by 5.5 inches.  If you get a power supply that is longer you might have problems of space between the PSU and the optical drives.  In addition, there are a stabilizing latch that cannot secure the PSU of stirring. This is a minor issue you should aware of your PC should be buy a power supply which is longer than the typical POWER HP block.

    The Corsair and both Thermaltake excellent food.  I would give the go-ahead for the CX600 Corsair ($50 after rebate) based on the cost, the total power available and the efficiency rating.

    This power supply is typical for your PC based on the part number indicated by HP PartSurfer.

  • HP Pavilion 500-164: the upgrade of the graphics card and power supply on a HP Pavilion 500-164

    I'll be upgrading my HP pavilions integrated HD graphics 8570 D a STRIX ASUS GeForce GTX overclocked 2 GB DDR5 128 - bit DisplayPort HDMI 1 750TI. 4 a/DVI-I graphics card. With that I also improve my diet to a Thermaltake TR2 500W 240 pins power power TR-500. I was wondering if it of ok to do on the computer and will not damage it. It is extra steps when I install these. Initially, I got the PC with windows 8 but have upgraded to windows 10.

    Hello

    If the ASUS 750 TI requires a 6-pin auxiliary power connector and your computer is running a version of HP 8 BIOS then you should be OK.  Open your PC and measure to make sure that graphics card fits.  In addition, open the command RUN and enter: MSINFO32

    Your computer is running a version of HP 8 BIOS?  If so, and if it is possible to install the graphics card then go ahead. Find out what the return policy is before you buy.

    Thanks for posting on the forum.

  • Workstation HP Z620 dual xeon: really only 1 6-pin power connector on the graphics card?

    Hello

    I have a question about the HP Z620 workstation.

    recently bought a dual xeon with 960 GTX installed on the 6-pin connector.

    as I can't find any other power to use nor on the power connector

    or nowhere on the set, I wonder how a graphics card must be powered only

    needs

    1 x 8-pin

    or

    1 x 8-pin + 6 pins

    or

    2 x 8 pin?

    I know there are some discussions about this in this forum, but I did not understand

    the solution. Some said there are adapters to go 6-pin to 8 pin (or 6pin to 2x8pin)?

    But how is that possible?

    like many, I know, 75 watts are max of the pci-e connection, 75 other watts Max for 1x6pin.

    so plug any adapter, 1x6pin for graphics cards that need much more power would be

    According to the standard / danger, right?

    and what about graphical installation double?

    would be happy if someone around could help me with this.

    best regards

    Chris

    The search box on this page by default search only this forum, and it is very convenient.  If you type "extra", you will find a lot of info.

    The Z620 has two of these 6-pin cable, and HP got creative and molded into two empty containers down to the black plastic fan holder before.  So, one is being used by you and the second is sitting there plugged and similar, it is used, but it is stored just it did nothing... the fan is powered differently.

    These extra HP 6 - pin PCIe power cables are not standard ATX... they are better.  The ATX standard is 75 watts can go up to the card out of the slot, and another 75 watts can come via the additional 6-pin cable.  HP 6-pin cable can do a bit more.

    This is the message that you want to read, and there there details that were not in any of the HP manuals that I searched through, but the answer was on the label of Z620 power supply.  12V 18A each, plus adding info on some special HP adapters that allow you to take a HP 6-pin and divided to two 6-pin connectors or cable HP 6-pin connector 8 pins.  Watch here.

  • HP Z620: Problem of auxiliary graphic workstation HP Z620 pci-e power connectors

    I want to fit my new GPU Z620 workstation card. I see that there are two auxiliary pci - e power connectors on the plastic support. I intend to use these two to put my new graphics card but I see potential problems.
    The problem is that in these two connectors pinout is not really to PCI-e spec. There are five female terminals to each 6 connector routes. The three terminals in the top row are crushed and two terminals downstairs is 12V. 6 cavity is empty in both connectors. As far as I know the PCI-e power connectors should have 12V power supplied to cavity n ° 4 and n ° 6 of cavity. What I have to manually change these two connectors pinout and move terminal 12V from cavity to cavity no.6 no.5 or there may be a few HP adapter that could solve this problem?

    connectors

    Only HP knows what HP has designed (and why) and as such, it cannot be assumed simply that a connector on a system is consistent with the 'standards' and not a "psudo owner" Connector (as seems to be the case with your PEG connector that is missing pin #3).

    Normally, a PEG 2 connector x 3 can provide 75W and as such, each 12V pin provides 1/3 of the power budget. This means that the HP "psydo owner" PEG connector, for lack of a better term, may not be able to supply 50W (if each ping is kept for the same current capabilities used in the standard 2 x 3 plug PEG).

    Then, this suggests the Z620 can only support a 175W graphics cards (with 75W of PCIe + 50W of each of the two 2 x 3 PEG connectors). Note that the standard allows graphics cards to 225W pulling 75W of the slot PCIe and 75W of each PEG 2 connector x 3!

    Thus, quantify this is to watch the quickspec for your Z620 and see what graphics cards are certified for use with your system. Then to know what cards are certified for your system, you can check what PEG connectors as appropriate are provided on these certified cards and also check what is their energy consumption. I would guess that all graphics cards that require more juice 175W has not been certified by HP...

    Since you say your card draws 165W, this budget of power seems OK during examination of the foregoing. So it should just be a matter of connect the two connectors of the PEG 2 x 3 and all should be well.

    However, it you want a card more powerful, purely based on the fact that a standard 2 x 4 connector PEG can power 150W using three-pin 12V, this would indicate that each pin can supply 50W. Assuming that the pins used in a conector of PEG 2 x 3 and 2 x 4 are the same, a 2 x 3 with only two pins 12V power connector could in theory provide 100W each. So you could in theory use a 275W card into the PCIe slot with your 2 psudo owner HP PEG connectors. BUT it means something to the pins themselves and that your HP power is up to the task (and can actually provide the necessary 275W power).

    And I would say that if you wanted a graphics 225W which is supported by standards, likley it would be a simple mod to the rider 12V among the pins for the vacancy that is normally used by the 3 pin (12V).  I'd be surprised if the block POWER HP of power and wiring could not handle the necessary extra 50W. But maybe it's a little too much for some who enjoy the guarantee.

    In any case, without owning a Z620, I would be comfortable in saying that you have no problem with this graphics card 165W and these exclusive hybrid psudo 2 x 3 PEG connectors as is

    (Heck, I don't got no problem with a 35W graphics card in a slot PCIe capable of 25W of my Dell T610 server that only supports the graphs via the inetgrated adapter)...

    But really, who knows why only two used HP pin 12V in their PEG connectors, maybe they used the best quality PINE and they were not sufficient for the cards, they chose to certify. Maybe save 2 cents for a less pin was a driving force... HP only knows what HP...

  • Molex power connector question

    I install a PCI Express x 1 card.  I need to plug in a molex power connector 4-pin on the map.  I see connectors 4 pin power P4, P6, etc..  Can I use an any of them?

    Power card header will determine the type of card that you will use. I'm a link connectors here because your confused. Although the molex, floppy, and ATX has 4 points, all are different designs. The ATX has a different electrical outlet.

  • Power connector 4-pin S5-1110 or adapter?

    I need to put a USB 3.0 in my Slimline for use with external hard drives. The cards I've seen require power connectors 4 pins old style.  The Slimline is very compact and it is difficult to see where I could put a splitter or a connector.

    Any suggestions on the source of the appropriate connector and where it plugs into the Slimline?

    Hello

    Are you sure that the PSU in the slimline is big enough to handle the USB 3.0 card?

    You could look for a cable Y SATA then a SATA Adapter 4.  Here are a few examples so do some measuring to ensure that the length according to your needs.

  • Power connector at right angle for laptop HP 2230 s?

    Is it possible to get an adapter at right angles to the power connector DC for my laptop HP 2230 s?

    The connector on the DC power cable that goes into the laptop out the path to the side (a good 2.5 "), which, besides being bulky, resembles an accident waiting to happen. On my old Fujitsu, the connector was barely right angle type, it came out at all, and was not a danger to catch on anything and damage the socket or the plug. This type of connector puts also much less strain on the DC input jack, as he does not act as a lever for bit.

    I've seen at right angles to the adapters for different types of cable (you plug your cable on one end and the other goes in the computer), like this:

    I hope you get the idea. In any case, what I would like is an adapter for the type of connector used on my HP laptop. The type of connector seems to be pretty standard in the range, so an adapter can be used with many models of HP. In the end, I hope that HP will change cables from their power supplies for laptop to come with these types of connectors at the ends, but in the meantime, is possible to get an appropriate, either through HP or a third party adapter?

    Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer suggestions!

  • HDD WD20EARS to HPE 112Y - power to SATA power connectors - only P4 Molex available?

    Hi all

    I bought a new drive HARD for Western Digital (WD20EARS) and when I went to install in my HPE 112y

    I saw that the harness for my existing WD10EADS had the usual black SATA power connector (labeled P9)

    plugged in,

    still on the same spot next to my main HARD drive did not exist another SATA Black Power Connector for my new HARD drive but a great white molex 4 driver female connector P4

    I searched through the bundle of cables, Power Supplies, but I have not found another available black SATA power connector.

    So very quickly what I thought would be a simple upgrade of HARD drive stopped me in my tracks.

    So, my questions are...

    (1) can I buy an adapter's cable to power the existing WD10EADS as well as my new HDD WD20EARS?

    (2) is there a short jumper cable that allows you to convert the white Molex P4?

    (3) should I just upgrade the existing LiteOn model of block of power SUPPLY PS-5301 - 08HA / power 300 WATT?

    If so, what is a good upgrade and did so for my HPE 112y? Necessary power, 400-500-700 watts

    I have a gateway FX541S with a power of 700FB1E Delta Electronics which has 3 SATA power connectors

    that align perfectly to each of its 3 HARD drive location... Very well!

    That's why I was surprised when I saw the problem I had with my RESUME, I was expecting the same thing.

    I never thought that I would have a cable problem, after that I got my new HARD drive.

    The HP Pavilion Elite 112y has two discs, Blu - Ray and DVD as well as a Radeon HD4350 Video card and now two HDD.

    Is 300 watts enough, even though both of my HARD drives WD Green drives are.

    Unlike my front door where security HARD drive in place with a lever and blade in the front or side according to the case law can be too LOL!

    My HPE 112y has a cage for two HARD disks that screw in place... I don't have the necessary screws.

    Where can I get these very short screws to ensure my WD HARD drive?

    I tried Lowes with no luck.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I went simple and fast 5 minutes HDD Upgrade which I have just done to my front door, a serious project with my RESUME.

    I still love my HP, but not too friendly!

    Hi again,

    Update.

    I went to my local computer store and got an adapter 'Y' which connects Molex 4 male pins on the computers Molex 4-pin female connector, then to a 'Y' for two SATA power connectors.

    They were kind enough to give me a bag of screws for the installation of my HARD drive in the cage.

    HDD installed in the cage, connected new red SATA cable and power cable SATA and everything has been working well since!

    Thanks again,

    Bud
