Im trying to figure out the wattage of this PSU, but there is so many numbers listed in the output I’m confused. Would this be 450W or 500W?IMG_1984.jpeg

It's a crappy 500W power supply. That would be 500W peak power.
It's RMS (Root Mean Square) (average), wattage is probably 400, maybe 450?


If you're planning on replacing it for some reason... make sure that it has "standard" connectors and not HP (only), proprietary connectors.
Companies like HP and DELL like using proprietary connectors so you have to replace with "their" power supplies.


These are "standard" connectors. There may also be a few "Molex" connectors as well...

It looks like it has "standardized" connectors...

I’m not building a new computer just upgrading an older one to support an upgraded graphics card.

As long as you don't go crazy with the vid card choice... the 650W should handle it.
When you decide on a video card... let us know, and we can double check the power requirements.

Unfortunately... on that one... the model number is in Chinese. :(


I found it by the part number though... it "looks" like standard connectors.

As for "standard connection" be sure to check your old PSU, it may not use any of the 4-pin Molex plugs for PATA/IDE drives but have the flat multi-contact plugs for SATA drives. Have seen a couple that included adapters from SATA power to the Molex.

Thanks!

I’m sure I’ll be fine

I did order a 750w EVGA.

What's the new graphics card? (A 750W PSU would be inadequate for an RTX 4090. ;-) )

Please let us know how it works out.

The existing PSU seems to be a standard ATX type.

I hope that the eVGA upgrade fits physically. (Standard PSUs may vary in length.)

So I’m upgrading two computers at once.

Currently I have the second PSU I showed which is 500W with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 Super. Specs when I search that card says 650W I believe but I’ve never had an issue. So I’m moving both the card and PSU into my daughter’s comp and for myself I ordered the 750W and Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060ti. This is just going to hold me over until I get a new comp within the next year or so.

Don't remember exactly how it was done but I remember one reason PC Power & Cooling power supplies were the best when it was available was that when you add up all the numbers, it actually was able to provide the real wattage when all rails were loaded.

If building a new computer.... look at 750W or 850W power supplies.
850W will handle most normal builds.


Like this... it also seems to be on sale.

Seasonic FTW!

Now I wish I could afford one. :LOL:

Seriously though, I have an EVGA 1000 Gold something or other right now and it is pretty solid. When it finally gives up the ghost I expect to be looking at a good Seasonic supply.
