Question Upgrade PSU

[jmcd]

I have an HP Envy TE01-0034 with a Rother 8653 motherboard. I want to install an GTX 1660 6gb graphix card but I need a larger (500W) PSU that is compatible with that MB and has a PCIe 6+2 plug for the graphix card. Will the L05757-800 PSU work for this? Basically, does the L05757-800 have the 2 HP 4-pin power connectors, the fan power connector, and a PCIe 6+2 plug

That's a proprietary board, with 3 power inputs

When dealing with proprietary or non-standard connectors, things can get tricky.

While I'm sure adapters exist to take a 'standard' PSU down to these connectors (P1, P2 and P3), I cannot even tell what P3 is based on available images of the board.

Unless it's sold by hp as an upgrade, probably not. Many low end prebuilts use proprietary board power connections and PSU form factors.

The P1 and P3 power connectors are a 4-pin square connector. The P2 power connector is a flat 4-pin connector. The L05757-800 is a 500W PSU sold by HP. It is used in other Envy units but it is not a standard for the unit I have (TE01-0034). I am hoping somebody is familiar with that PSU and the connectors it has.

I found the L05757-800 on the HP Partsfinder site (~$105) but I can't seem to find and image showing the cables and connectors. Does anyone know where to find that?

Sorry, I meant P2 is what I couldnt' see, not P3.

What model is on your PSU? Sounds like the L05757-800 has the same connectors as a L04618-800 , if that helps.

The part number on the 180W PSU that came in the unit is: L08261-004. Where did you find a table or image listing/showing the connectors for the L04618-800? If could see that then I could compare to the connectors on mu PSU

Reviving an old post here but I was able to install the HP 500 watt power supply on my 0034 (Rother MB) with no issues at all. Same 3 connectors and I was even able to use all the same mounting screws. The new PS comes with 2 six pin plus an additional 2 pin connector for the graphics card.

Hope this helps others.
