Re: Graphics Card upgrade for HP Compaq Elite 8300 SFF PC

I know this is a fairly old post, but I had an email from a refurb company, selling these reasonably cheap, and was thinking of an upgrade for my wifes aging PC.  I read somewhere about a limit on the wattage that PCIe port could output on the 8200SFF, so a GFX card that ran purely from the PCIe port without any additional 6 or 8 Pin connectors may struggle, so a 750TI or at 1050ti low profile card.  Could anyone confirm if this is a) true and b) if this is true is also an issue on the 8300SFF?

 

Cheers

 

p.s.  found this post on another thread:

 

READ PAGE 2-3, Under SFF models ---
that sets your limitations (Low Profile, Maximum 25 watts in PCIe Graphics x16 slot).

The Small Form Factor (SFF) model features a 240 Watt Power Supply.
That wattage will limit your selections for GPU processors (add-on graphics cards).

This case was designed (thermal/fan/heatsinks) for up to 95 Watt Processors.
