Upgrade Question

[beret9987]

Hi

I was considering buying a HP Pavilion a1350n. Its a great bargain for a dual-core AMD, PCI Express support right out of the box. I was just wondering though if the HP cases could take a new power supply I was hoping to swap out the 300 watt one with a 550 or something like that. Any chance it could work? Any help appriciated. Thanks!

i'm not sure, i've worked on some older HP computers, their mini towers are terrible and very odd, i doubt you'd be able to easily replace it but i'm sure it'd be do able, what computer company in their right mind would make a special power supply just so you can't replace it with anything but one purchased from them
