I don't know had to return it cause it started smelling like it was burning soon as turned it on and didn't come on the next time I tried to turn it on.

It has a 450 watt power supply. Mine failed in the first week. I had a spare 500 watt PS and I didn't want to return the unit so I just installed my spare.

It's around 350w. I had to replace mine with a 750 before I was able to use my GPU. This is a great computer, but it's obvious they got cheap with the PSU.

On the third computer I ordered the power supply wattage was 450 watts. On the other two that I ordered from HP both of themhad a 600 watt power supply. Always order the higher wattage power supply.

Right now I'm using a 600wat and it's working perfectly fine. So I don't think you need a big supply for it unless you are trying to run a fast cpu

Umm if your referring to the watts as in power. I am able to get out too boot with a 450 watt psu. It all depends on what CPU your using.

I have a similar setup but 1000 watt. Doesn't seem to tax it at all so 850 might be enough.

Provided there is an open pci slot on the pc (which you can find out by opening it up) and the psu is putting out 400 - 500 watts you should be fine. Upgrading stock PC's can be tricky though, I wouldn't recommend it personally, hard to get it to the standard you want.

I use 650W . I think it is enough. You can search some websites that tells you exactly how much you need depending on your computer.

I'm not sure what the power usage is, but it runs flawlessly with my 350 watt power supply.

That depends on the graphic card you will be using.650 WATT FOR SINGLE CARD. 2 GRAPHIC CARDS 750 WATT. I RUN A 850 WATT FOR MY RIG POWER TO UPGRADE.

Major energy user in modern comps is a video card...Without video card, 300W more then enough.If you will use powerful modern video card you have to change PSU if not 300W would be OK

I have a 430 watt PSU, and it runs perfectly. Those recommended wattages are usually overstated.

300W is barely enough if you use the onboard video, depending on the CPU power requirement. If you add in a separate video card, you really should go up to 450W or 500W.

can't really tell .All depends on how your pc is configured. I personally used a 650w

The TDP of the card is advertised as 150W, although it should be a little lower considering it can still be overclocked within it's physical power input restrictions (75W through pci-E slot + 75W from the 6-pin connector). But yeah, 150W is a safe estimate. As to the wattage required to run a system (i.e. power supply requirement) people will throw random numbers at you like 500W PSU or better, but the truth is that it all depends on the hardware you are running. I suggest you do some google search for a power calculator and do your own math and see what kind of PSU you're going to need.

It depends how you use the computer. If you often use more than 900W for gaming or processing then I recommend your UPS exceeds what you use. If you use it for surfing the internet or word processing then you're probably using less than 400W and it'll do fine. You can download meters that show your power usage if you feel like you might approach 900W regularly.
