    Hacking HP Z600 Board to put in a ATX Case

    In the end, I just sold my HP Z600 with dual Xeons and 24GB RAM, bought new case, Ryzen 5, and 1080 Ti. The power 18-to-24 pin power connector was fine but memory cable could not be matched. I got CPU EPS cable working, main power cable but memory would just not initialize. Unless you are really...

    Hacking HP Z600 Board to put in a ATX Case

    I'm actually doing something similar right now. I have a spare HP Z600 which I upgraded to GTX 1070 and Xeon 5660. I bought an EPS PSU and I am struggling with the memory cable. Everything else is fine, CPU powers up, GPU as well, SSDs, everything, it's just this stupid memory cable that won't...

    ATX Power Supply for HP Proliant SE326M1 G6 Server

    Actually I was able to run HP Z600 (which also has a proprietary PSU/connectors) with an ATX PSU, I had to buy a ATX24pin to 18pin adapter and it was smooth sailing from then. I am using Enermax MaxPro 700W 80+ (EMP700AGT) with EPS12v2.92 and SSI standards which allows me to power up dual Xeons...

    Installing ATX PSU in HP Z600

    I only mean that the PSU can run Xeon CPUs as a desktop one, truth be told I wouldn't know what comprises an ATX standard :) My main concern is the 6-pin memory cable, because others should be fine, molex/sata/eps 8 pin 12v, etc. This is the pinout of the memory cable: Pin Color Signal 1...

    Installing ATX PSU in HP Z600

    That's why I bought a dedicated 24-pin ATX PSU to 18-pin HP PSU adapter(which converts the ATX pinout to HP Z600 compatible pinout) and the new power supply is ATX EPSE2.92/SSI compliant so there should be no problems.

    Installing ATX PSU in HP Z600

    ATX Power supply replacement for HP Z600

    Hello everybody, since HP does not allow PSU upgrades for HP Z600(650W is the only option), I want to get some information on the available ATX replacements for the HP PSU. From what I've read and seen, there are ways around HP's custom connectors. First of all, I found some adapter cables that...

    Powering Gigabyte GTX 1070 G1 Gaming in HP Z600 through additional power cables

    Ok, thanks for clarification. Do you think a single 6-pin coming out of my PSU is enough for GTX1070 then? I am currently using a 6-pin to 8-pin adapter from a generic manufacturer - can this be an issue? Should I search for other adapters? Or should I replace the PSU altogether? Truth be told...

    Powering Gigabyte GTX 1070 G1 Gaming in HP Z600 through additional power cables

    Notea, thanks for your reply. Based on my research, there are a lot of refurbished HP Z600s with GTX 1080s installed in them. I see no problem with GTX 1070. The only question would be whether I provide 100W from the 6-pin and 40/50W from Molex/SATA into one 8-pin or if there is a...

    Powering Gigabyte GTX 1070 G1 Gaming in HP Z600 through additional power cables

    Hello everyone, I've recently been struggling with my new GTX 1070 after upgrading it from GTX 1060. What bothers me is the my machine keeps shutting down when working under full load for a while. GTX 1070 by Gigabyte has a single 8-pin connector and my PSU(650W, 85% eff) has one 6-pin...
