yah you can have a normal PSU in there by the looks of things

Hello, so last Christmas I picked up a pre-built PC for a sweet deal at Walmart. (At the time it was $250) It included a GTX 1060 and a I5-7400. I ended up upgrading the memory and now I am looking for a graphics card. A GTX 1070 Mini OC from Gigabyte might be what I am going for. But of course the system came with a mediocre power supply. If anyone can find one around 500 Watts that would fit inside this mini build it would be highly appreciated!

 

Name: HP Pavilion Power Desktop 580-023w

Product Info: https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/hp-pavilion-power-580-000-desktop-pc-series/16425610/model/17345625/product-info

 

Thanks!

does it take a normal ATX powersupply? if so just check whats a good deal and in the top three here:

 

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

Here is the deal with most ATX, they don't have many without the power switch and my case does not have a place for a power switch.

from what i can see there should be nothing interfearing with the normal PSU powerbutton in its normal place? maybe the pictures im finding arent acurate so could you take a picture of your computer maybe?

Alright and one last question before I buy it, think everything would fit ok replacing my mini 160 with this https://www.ebay.com/itm/Gigabyte-GTX-1070-Mini-ITX-OC-8GB/264046388685?epid=2149514569&hash=item3d7a6425cd:g:YlUAAOSwi1lb8KIf:rk:6:pf:0

yah they should be about the same size, you can always take a pair of tin snipps or a dremmel to the case to make it fit ;)
