[SOLVED] Upgrading PSU of Lenovo Workstation p410 to 1000W ? what specs to consider?

[deperson]

Hi Everyone
I would like to Upgrade the PSU of Lenovo P410, as everyone knows Mainboard needs 14pin power connector and all PSUs come with 24pin.
on amazon there are so many converters (24pin to 14pin) to choose from.

QUESTION: Besides Cable and Size, is there anything else to consider?

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

Unfortunately you're not going to be able to drop in an aftermarket PSU into that machine. More likely the same PSU that the prebuilt came with unless Lenovo have a parts list where they have a higher wattage unit for a premium price.

If the connectors don't match up, there's no point in looking any further on a PSU. That's the problem with proprietary connectors on a motherboard. You could look at these but the risk is entirely onto you.
