Power Supply Upgrade

[Pc-noob616]

Ok so i bought a pre build hp system (gonna do like a budget build type thing) and it has a 320 watt psu. I have a extra 500 watt psu but its too small for the case, idk if it is possible to buy a new power supply for the computer because the psu i have extra could work (if i rigged it) but not really because the connections arent the same as the ones on the hp's motherboard. Is there any 400-500watt psu i can buy that'll work with my prebuild hp so i can atleast get a rx460 without worrying that it'll rape the psu in the hp lol?

The computer is a hp6200 micro tower i believe once i get replies ill tell the exact model (not by the pc atm)

I meant inside the HP6200 computer of course, does the picture resemble the one inside that computer ?

From everything I've found, that micro tower (it really does not look like a micro) is listed as a SFF (small form factor) in which case there is only 1 psu I'd recommend.

my mistake the pc is actually a hp 6005 pro microtower, is there any you would recomend for that?

Ugh. From available stats, the micro tower is 6.95" wide, which would stand to reason it'll fit a standard ATX psu. It's hard to be exact with pre-built pc's because as with the psu Paladin linked, (that's a proprietary SFF psu for the SFF desktop) many are proprietary. A standard SFF is like the ATX but smaller, the SFF in the HP 6005 is not standard, but like Paladins link. I'm guessing that the 500w spare unit you have is a standard SFX, it's smaller, when you could really use a standard ATX. If that's the case, then I'd recommend the Corsair CXM 450 or something like a Seasonic S or M12-II 520w, Antec HCG M 520, Seasonic SS400w
