Hi Chris, check out the new post in the comments section from user "ujt 80".


Much obliged! Fingers crossed (s)he is using the original hp 850w power supply.

Edit: Hopefully this will help others in the future - I went out and bought a Radeon R9-380 video card. The original 850w power supply runs it just fine.

Hi all,

I lucked into a Z800 with a gen 2 motherboard and the proprietary 850w power supply. I'd like to put a modern video card into it, but I'm wary about the power consumption. Has anyone had any luck using their z800 with a new Radeon R9-3xx series? I see that a few people have posted using the 290 series - did you find that there was any instability playing modern fps games? (I'm thinking of things like R6 Siege).

Thanks!
