Update of map chart/PSU (power supply) for Lenovo Thinkcentre A70-7844C1U

Specifications of the computer:

Lenovo Thinkcentre A70-7844C1U

Processor Intel Pentium Dual Core E5500 (2.80 GHz)

4 GB of DDR3 RAM (upgrading to 2 GB)

Intel GMA X 4500 (integrated graphics)

180-watt power supply

I decided my computer needed some activities if I wanted to play some games like Minecraft and Team Fortress 2.

I wanted to change my original graphics to something like a Nvidia Geforce GT 220 (minimum 300-watt power supply)

But then, I realized that my computer power supply was less than the minimum requirement for the new graphics card.

I was wondering if it was OK to always install a dedicated video card or if I needed to upgrade my diet as well.

If I need to upgrade my power supply, what do you recommend for me? (budget: $ 100 - $200)

Thanks, Vguys!

  • Once PSU, power supply for ever?

    Hello

    I read in many places that if you apply the block of POWER, then you can never apply CPU on this House. You will still need to apply after PSU than this home page. Is this true?

    If so, what is lost here?

    As I understand it, is that the power supplies include the CPU for the corresponding quarter.

    Why would someone only apply CPU and no CPU (CPU includes several bug fixes and the corresponding processor)?

    What would make me choose one over the other?

    Best regards

  • Map chart and power, can someone help me please?

    Hello everyone so I bought the new Dragon Age game: Inquisition for my pc and the computer is only around the age of 2 months, but the game is slow so my graphics card is not powerful enough, and I can't understand map of what chart or power supply for that will be compatible with my computer.

    Hello

    I ran a simulator for Dragon Age: Inquisition and the processor and the memory of your 500-223w HP meet or exceed the recommended requirements. However, the video on your PC does not meet the recommended level even at 1024 by 768 resolution.  The 750 NVIDIA also would not meet the recommended requirements even at 1024 by 768 resolution.

    The power supply should be replaced to support a graphics card that meets the recommended requirements.

    The Corsair CX600would be a great choice because it fits the HP power existing dimensions. $65

    TheAMD R9 270would exceed the recommended requirements for Dragon Age: Inquisition. They are on sale from $100.  Make a measure within yiour PC.  This Sapphire R9 270model would be a good choice for discount afer $130

  • HP 8200 elite CMT: can I use an external power supply for AMD Radeon HD graphics card 7770?

    I have HP 8200 elite CMT CPU in which 320 watts PSU is installed. I want to use AMD Radeon HD 7770 requiring more power (minimum 400 watts power supply) for maximum performance. But the fact is, the higher Watt PSU is not available for my cpu because its cables do not match that. So I ask if I can use the external power supply to power my GPU instead of the CPU power. Will be this harm to my PC?

    Kindly help me to solve this problem.

    Thank you

    Thank you for the information, @haseebkhan7310.

    I'm not a fan of using a separate power supply to power a video card.  It can cause problems.  However, here is a video that will show you how it can be done:

  • I need power supply for HP Z220 CMT workstation up to 500 watt

    HI everyone I want to improve my diet is 400 watt, this does not work with my new graphics card, it's Asus GTX 770 Nvidia GeForce DirectCU II OC 2 GB GDDR5 he needs a minimum of 500 watts...
    Thank you very much for everything give me it please link or model power supply for hp workstation z220 up to 400 watt.

    Hello:

    Power supply in the z220 belong to someone, which means that you can not install any other food but the 400W provided by HP.

    You can also ask your question on the HP Business Support Forum - z section of jobs to see if anyone knows if one different PSU from another series of z that Workstation will work for your model.

    http://h30499.www3.HP.com/T5/workstations-z-series-XW-series/BD-p/BSC-272#.U5nJ2f1OXGg

    For example the z600 has a 650W power supply, but I have no idea if this P/S will work in the z220.

    Perhaps someone on this forum will have some alternatives for you, but don't get your hopes up.

  • Power supply for use in the UNITED Arab Emirates

    Hello

    I just bought a Time Capsule of the airport and an Apple TV (4th gen).  I'm moving to Dubai for work and I intend to take with me.  I can't find out how to replace the power supply for use in Dubai (plug type G).

    • Can I just buy a travel voltage converter?
    • What is the frequency difference (US is 60 Hz and UNITED Arab Emirates is of 50 Hz)?
    • Could I just buy a 'EnergyPal travel Charging Station ETCS04' and connect directly?

    Thanks for any help!

    The airport Time Capsule and the Apple TV work on 100-240 Volts and 50/60 Hz automatically, so they'll work pretty much anywhere in the world if you have the map of the right ankle.  A voltage converter is NOT necessary.

    You can buy the cards you need to any store from the airport, luggage, in Dubai store, etc., most of the hotels the.  If I remember correctly, Dubai uses the same type of plug that she used in the United Kingdom, as well as should work as well.

    I do not think that the higher 5 GHz channels are permitted in Dubai, so be sure to put the time Capsule to use a lower numbered GHz 5 channel... 36, 40, 44 or 48.

  • Need new power supply for my HP p6210y

    Hello

    I have a HP p6210y (http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01859864) and I need to upgrade the power supply for the Radeon HD 4890 I have now. I am reviewing the PSU below. However, the dimensions are actually smaller than my current diet. Who's going because of my problems in terms of ride it properly in the case?

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16817338038

    If this will cause problems, can anyone suggest a power supply (it's the exact size as my current) which would be suitable for my graphics card. I need "500W with two connectors to power 75W 6-pin PCI Express.

    Thank you!

    I believe that the PSU is designed for a different style of the case. Discover the Corsair CX500, or CX600 power supplies. They are highly recommended and are favorite forum. In addition, they are only slightly larger than the stock power supply HP and are known to adapt.

  • Power supply for Pavilion a6720f?

    Hello. Is power supply for an a6720f a standard ATX, or something exclusive? I need to know.

    Thank you.

    This is a standard size ATX PSU - 5.5 "by 5.9" by 3.4 "but confirm this by opening your PC and by measuring the PSU.  Go back to the bottom of all the cables coming from the PSU for the endpoints so that you know which links are necessary.

  • The upgrade of the power supply for a HP Pavilion 500-054

    Hey people,

    I'm changing the 500-054 flag so that it can play a few games, not a hardcore gamer, just want to be able to play the occasional game. I want to get a lower end external video card, but this requires a power supply greater than 300. I am looking for a new power supply for my computer, but I couldn't find one for the 500-074. Are the ones that will work for my computer or I am a hopeless case?

    Thank you

    A standard ATX power supply will work. Please look at the Corsair CX430, CX500, CX600, or their variations of modular cables for your needs.
