This is obviously different from what I wrote in my hasty comment below. Supported Processor PCI Express Port Configurations 1x16

The Q85 Chipset features one PCIe x16 expansion slot.įrom the HP support web site: Expansion slotsĪnd from the Intel Q85 Chipset specifications: Supported Processor PCI Express Port Revision 3 The lesson here is: don't use a Professional Desktop PC for Home/Entertainment/Gaming purposes, if you can avoid it, as they are typically hard to upgrade.ĮDIT: After reading comment below, I did some further research. I would advise you to check the HP support site for the HP ProDesk 600 G1 for a list of compatible graphics cards, that will work with your current PSU.įor example, I found this AMD Radeon HD 8490 DP (1GB) PCIe x16 Graphics Card on the list, which is a somewhat decent card, which is guaranteed to work with your system.Īs mentioned in the other answers, trying to get a standard PSU to fit the case/motherboard would be a major hassle. This is clearly not compatible with a standard PCIe 6 pin GPU connector. I happened to have a HP G600 standing right next to me from a customer, so I took some pictures:Īs visible in the top picture, the blue and purple cables going into the 6 pin plug are not as thick as the other 4, so those would be the ones carrying the power on signal, with the 4 black and yellow ones carrying power.
