HP Computer and their Power Supplys?

Question

Ok, does anyone know if other power supplys will fit an HP computer or does HP make their own.

Anyone with a recent HP computer upgrade their power supply?

I have an HP Pavilion d4995t and was wondering if i could get a power supply without going through HP!

Here's an Ebay search result for your power supply

you can also purchase any other power supply of equivalent wattage... Antec makes nice dependable ones.  It just needs to have the same connections that yours has.

Oh, please don't go through HP. They'll just sell you another marginal Bestec 300 watt for a price that could get you a 600 watt PC Power and Cooling! There's a scant amount of Online data on this system's SMPS unit, so you need to pop your case and look for the phrase "ATX" on the side of your power supply. It should have it (be ATX,) as your HP looks to be a standard mid tower.

I suggest this power supply as a cheap and reliable upgrade. I put the 380 watt variant into my HP; it fits wierd because only two screws line up, but otherwise fine in my 1630n midtower. The supply is made by SeaSonic, and is at least 80% efficient. Here's a link:

I would like to also tell you that the supplies other people are linking you to are mostly dangerously substandard products that exemplify the worst of Taiwanese SMPS design. Expect them to be missing most of their power filtering bits, weigh very little, have 20 guage leads to the motherboard, thin housing metal, cheap caps that have short lives, an ancient ATX 1.3 design with heavy 3.3V and 5V rails, and worst of all, an inability to put out more than 2/3 of their claimed power without catastrophically failing. If you want something like those, Newegg has them for twenty bucks without rebate, but again, they're worst than HP stock by a longshot. Google "deer power supply" if you doubt how bad they could be.

Answer 4

Power Supplies are always about size and specifications for the power. While it is always best to buy factory original stuff, you can always find replacements from other vendors or sometimes on places like ebay.

For example, check below link - they make power supplies for all kinds of computers including the one you want

Good luck!
