Power Source 2x2 pin

[Seth_8]

I have a 2x2 pin (dont know what its called) that powers my back ports including my onboard graphics and i want to put in a new power source for a new graphics card but the new power source doesnt have that

Hmm. Most contemporary systems have a 20 or 24 pin ATX connector + 4 pin/8 pin connector for the CPU VRMs. Not heard of a 4-pin connector for graphics that wasn't an inline 4-pin molex connector.

This isn't an OEM machine from e-machine, dell, compaq, or some other brand? They often use custom wiring and power supplies which makes them difficult to upgrade.

I have an hp computer.

Some Hp's are proprietary and don't use standard ATX connections.

If you have one standard ATX won't run on the Hp.

If you provide the exact model I can probably tell you more, but generally these aren't the type of systems that are conducive to upgrades. Some more popular machines do have adapter kits out there you can find on ebay and amazon. Only other option is to buy the appropriate connectors and do some re-wiring.

That's a standard connection for CPU power , any decent power supply should have it or an 8 pin that SPLITS TO MAKE 4+4.

I dont have those but will this work. Im highly doubting it. http://imgur.com/JiaJKtp

No they won't work , you need a 4 pin CPU power.

What PSU make and model?

 

[Seth_8]

Its a dell power source model: H750P-00

This power supply has six SATA connectors, two Molex/peripheral connectors, an FDD connector, two 6 pin PCIe connectors, a 24-pin ATX connector and a non-standard 20 pin 12V CPU connector. While this isn’t very many connectors for a 750 watter, it’s more than enough for the PC it came from, since it only had six HDD bays, and came with two mid-range graphics cards. Note that in the above picture, the CPU connector has been replaced with a standard 4 pin connector, powered only by the fourth 12V rail, since the original 20 pin connector won’t work with my load tester. All of the cables do come sleeved, but only up to the first connector. There is no sleeving in between the connectors.

Yes, the wiring harness is Dell proprietary, these power supplies were built for only the 700/710/720 desktops and the power requirements for these systems are extremely proprietary.

FROM DELL.COM

That power supply only runs on the three models underlined above.

Soooo idk if i need a molex to it or what

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

You can't use that PSU , IT'S PROPRIETARY , read my last post.

Only runs on those DELL models above.

 

[Seth_8]

Okay

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

Sorry about the bad news , those type of power supplies are only for certain Dell PC's.
