will this work as an upgrade in my HP Pavilion Elite m9250f ? it's at 350w now.

Yes it will. Are you adding components? If not, 600w may be a bit high. The only reason to go 600 is if you're adding power-hungry components like a gaming video card. As an upgrade straight up, and considering the OEM PSU is only 350w, you can consider 380w,430w or 500w 80Plus bronze models from Corsair (CX or TX series), Antec (Earthwatts) or Seasonic (expensive but topnotch). Hope this helps.

I would really recommend you go w/ an Antec (they're extremely reliable, trust me). I checked out the specs for your hp elite, that's a nice machine, I wouldn't risk it for this Corsair. I bought this psu and it sizzled out w/in the first six weeks. I replaced it w/ an Antec 900w from here on amazon, and have had amazing performance and lower electric bills. Plus, if I ever need to upgrade, I'll have plenty of power to do so. > Antec High Current Gamer HCG-900, 80 PLUS BRONZE, 900 Watt Power Supply (it's on sale now for 117.00, which is a killer deal considering that I paid close to $200 for mine).

As long as you have the required space in the Elite it sould work fine. Power supply mounting is standard for all cases so it is just a matter if it will fit or not.

Will it support it; Yes. Also under full PC load you will be around 500-550w (the cards alone pull 400w together). This will put you right in the efficiency "sweet spot" (92% at 120v). Looking at the graph you can see efficiency starts to decline over 50% psu load. Your idle load will drop below the efficiency "sweet spot" but only by 2%.

Depends on the type of case you have. Min of 350w - 400w. Usually NO instructions included w/power supply. Instructions come w/motherboard!

I have no clue. I have a 430W in mine and I don't have problems.. I can't see it taking that much.

It only has 300w P/S. I believe the card you want requires a minimum 500w, 600w is recommended.

Do not know. Could not get it to work in my computer. Trashed it. I was told I needed 400 watts for my video card to work right. My computer only has 250 watts. I was trying to upgrade, it didn't work.

I'm running two of these on an 850W PSU, so really anything above 350W should be fine, but you might be pushing it at 350W

No problem, put it on blue slot . You need 1000w or up power supply to power on this motherboard .
1249983
Yes it will. That is what I installed mine in but running a 300w power supply, which isnt to much of a difference in power. It runs off of the mobo, but it would not hurt to install a bigger power supply.

I like the card overall--for old HP--colors are bright and intense, and good for today's games--like for diablo III. I'm pretty sure it will work once I upgrade the CPU---and if I have to switch the motherboard then I might just get that and a power pack as well--although this works with the 300w that was stock with this crappy HP---ive pretty much upgraded everything else on this thing. thanks!

From the following website, http://www.cputopia.com/hp-480w-hp-pavilion-a1330n.html, it says that this power supply is a replacement for the original. When you get it match the connections up and change them one-by-one. You may not use all of the connections. I hope this helps.

That is a popular question, you can check on Toms Hardware for other discussions. AMD recommends 400w, I also used an Antec 550w for mine but others have reported that they got by with 300w but it depends on the efficiency of the power supply.
1690035
You may try it, although 300W is on a low side and it may force you to go to 450-500W power supply for any further upgrades you may have in mind. I put it in the system with 650W and it works great.

Not sure since you will be going up in wattage. Your existing power supply is 400 watts, where this one would be 650 watts. You would have to check the specs on your computer mother board to see if you can up the wattage.

It says it will not, but I am using it inside an Acer Veriton with a 250W psu without issues so far

You are going to need a slimline power supply for that computer. When looking up on here just use slimline and the wattage you would like. 300w should be more than adequate for that machine. Good Luck

I am actually using a 300w PSU and everything works just fine for the past week (i7-4770, 8G ram, two HDs). But don't try to take my word and keep a 300w psu for long bc it's supposed to be dangerous to your equipment. I've ordered a 500W PSU and will replace as soon as it arrives.
