So what's wrong with what you have?

It's weird.

 

Extrapolating out of incomplete data my best guess is that this is about upgrading a prebuilt computer with a better graphics card and a new PSU. I'd say it's a proprietary mobo with connectors that aren't compatible with a normal ATX unit.

Caroline doesn't need to hear all this, she's a highly trained professional.

In your system the case, motherboard and PSU are proprietary. You can't replace one of those items for regular ATX/SFX specified products without replacing all three. Maybe there's a more powerfull Lenovo PSU available that fits.

But are you sure that the mother board is proprietary?

As I know Lenovo, 99% sure. You have a pic of the motherboard?

Your power supply only has 12V output. No 5V, 3.3V, or 5VSB that a normal ATX motherboard uses. Your motherboard is definitely not standard ATX.

There might be some adapters you can find that convert a standard ATX power supply to work with the motherboard. What model Lenovo PC is it? If you search the model name + ATX PSU Adapter in places like ebay you might find somebody selling adapters.

 

 

What are the system specs? What are you upgrading? By the time you swap out the power supply, motherboard, case, and I'm guessing graphics card since you need a PSU upgrade you're basically just building a new PC. If it's an older CPU you might be better off just building a full new PC rather than investing money in to upgrading the old one.

Your only option is to get a power supply from a bigger lenovo desktop, like a Lenovo P340.
the part number is HK600-11PP, it's 500w and has gpu connectors.
its TFX 10 pin like yours, it *should* work, but i cant exactly guarantee that.

it will not physically fit inside your computer, you will have to set it outside the case. I assume this isnt an issue anyway since any gpu will also poke out the case.

Make a new post in New Builds & Planning section for advice on what parts for a new build. 

Probably better off selling the Lenovo PC as a complete PC and starting fresh. You probably won't find many motherboards for 10th gen processors these days unless you're buying used.
