Update of power supply for HP Pavilion 500-056

I want to upgrade to a discrete graphics card, but the 300 watt PSU is not enough.  It is not one of the standard sizes such as ATX12V, EPS12V, SFX12V (small footprint), LFX12V (low profile form factor), or TFX12V (slim form factor).

Does anyone know of a specific diet that can fit in my computer case?  Without my ability to be upgraded will be severely compromised.

According to the specs of HP Pavilion 500-056 desktop PC product page, your computer uses a power SUPPLY ATX12V PSU which is 150 x 140 x 86 mm (5.9 x 5.5 x 3.4 inches) in size. Please consider replacing it with a Corsair CX500, CX600, CX500M, or CX600M depending on your graphics card needs.

  • 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.

  • Update on power supply for m9650f

    Does anyone have a recommendation for a power supply in the range of 600W they know works in the m9650f?  I want to update my video to a card ti 560 gtx requiring at least a PSU 500W with + 12 volt current rated for 30 amps.  I tried a power supply modular Thermaltake 775W (much more capacity I need, but the price was decent), but when I installed it, the machine would not start, publish, or display all errors, even with the original of the installed video card.  When I put the original PSU in the machine with the original card video, just booted normally.  Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Corsair HX650 should work and you should have plenty of expansion capability that this power has 52 amps on 12V + rail.  I use HX 650 in my PC and I have the same motherboard as the m9650f.

    Corsair VX 550 has 41 amps on 12V + rail

    Corsair CX 600 has 40 amps on 12V + rail

    Corsair CX 500 has 34 amps on 12V + rail

  • Update on power supply for Hp p7 - 1370 t.

    Hi, I'm going to update my geforce gt 620 to a geforce gt 640 GDDR5 OEM, but my PSU is only 300w, I want a power supply 400w or more just to be sure, what PSU guys would you recommend for my computer.

    Thank you

    Hello

    The CorsairCX500, or CX600 are excellent choices for your PC. You will have a lot of power for future growth.

    If you do not plan to replace the video card with a better card in the future the Corsair CX430would be a good choice.

    ' HP ' how-to ' articles should be useful.

    Consult this publication documentfor more information.

    You can watch the EVGA GTX 650.  The price of need, I can say is much cheaper and the performance of the card are the same.

  • Replace the power supply for a Pavilion a140n

    How to install a new power supply in a HP Pavilion a140n? Is there a step by step guide?

    Zz30fg, welcome to the forum.

    Is the model you list correct?  I can't find anywhere.

    Before you start, I suggest that you measure existing power supply unit (PSU) to make sure that the one you choose to insert in the space provided.

    The first thing you will do is turn off the computer.  Disconnect all devices that are connected, for example, keyboard, mouse, printer, etc.  Once done, remove the side cover of the case.  There are two or more screws on the back of the computer that you have to remove.  Then slide the side gently to the rear.  Put it somewhere safe.   Be sure to touch the metal inside of the case before touching any components.  This will eliminate static electricity (ESD).  Now you can disconnect the cables from the PSU.  This is where it gets a little tricky.  I normally take a picture of the connections and mark them as clearly as possible on the motherboard.  Believe me, you'll be much happier if you do.  Once this operation is complete, it is time to remove the (4) screws that hold the power supply in place.  Hold it with care.  If it falls it can damage other components.

    The new power supply will be marked with the appropriate connector cables.  At this point, it's just the opposite of what you were doing to uninstall the existing PSU.  Install the power supply into the case.  Do not overtighten the screws.  Make sure that the cables are inside the case.  Once in place, carefully connect all cables to the appropriate connectors.

    If you have any other questions, I will watch this thread for you help.

    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.

  • Update on power supply for Dell Dimension 4600

    I searched in the nets, but was not able to find an answer, so I hope someone can help.

    I received recently a 4600 as a hand.  I decided to set up as a game machine.  I know it's an old PC, but I do not anticipate play something newer than Battlefield 2142 (I use my Xbox 360 to play newer games).

    In any case, I was able to get a new Radeon X 1950 PRO on eBay for $35 shipped to replace a 6600GTOC whose fan has stopped working.  I thought that since I was the video card for a good price, upgrading the PSU still would be worth during the upgrade of the motherboard or get a new PC.

    I started to look at the power supplies and noticed that some of them have their own power switch.  This means that the power button on the front of the 4600 no longer works?  I would go with a power supply where can I still use the power button and should not spread in the back to turn on the PC.

    BTW, here's the rest of the features of the 4600:

    CPU: Pentium 4 HT 3.06 GHz (Northwood) - HT disabled

    RAM: 3 GB PC3200

    Readers: A WD 320 IDE, a DVD-ROM and floppy 3.5 "drive

    No other expansion boards outside the video card will be installed.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    slee1972

    When the power supply the on/off switch, you leave in the position 'On' and use the power button on the front of the computer.

    The Dimension 4600 has an open back panel, you can use most of the generic ATX PSU, with or without the market/on-off switch and with either a 20-PIN or 20 + connector 4-pin main motherboard.

    You should be able to buy food from the local computer stores.

  • Update on power supply for hp a6826f

    I recently bought a Hp a6826f desktop computer and have decided to upgrade my diet because it comes with a power of 250w and I intend to buy a graphics card. My problem is that I don't know what will fit in my case. I don't know if I have a micro ATX PSU. Will fit an ATX PSU? Im looking for combo deals on newegg. Any suggestions?

    NK, I believe that any ATX PSU will be insert in your case.  However, the surest way to know is to measure your existing power supply.  Then find a new, and compare the measurements.  I am an Overclocker, so I like OCZ or Corsair.  They are high PSU range that will give you a clean diet.  I like to video cards, XFX, BFG or EVGA.  Again, these are high quality products.  I have two cards XFX; GeForce 7900GTX and ATI 4870 1 GB XXX.  They are large maps.

  • 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.

  • 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.
