HP ProDesk 400 G5 TWR - Teardown and gaming upgrade

Ғылым және технология

In this video we'll take a deep dive into the hardware of the HP ProDesk 400 G5 tower version. I will first disassemble the machine, then re-assemble it, install Windows 11 and do some benchmarks.
Once we have a good idea on how the installed NVIDIA GT 1030 performs, I will also upgrade that card with an NVIDIA GTX 1650 and re-do the benchmarks. Finally I'll also test some games like Microsoft Flight Simulator and GTA V on this machine after upgrading it.
If you're interesting in installing Windows 11 on your unsupported machine, have a look at the video I did on that subject: • Windows 11 Dual Boot o...

    I'm actually waiting for this PC to be delivered any day now. I was impressed with the i7-8700 processor it has installed. This was a fantastic video. Thank you and God bless you.

    Sir, Great vid. But WARNING to all that may get caught like myself. After seeing this vid managed to find a HP Z1 EliteDesk G5 800, very very nice design really pleased. It came with a nVidia P620 and all the initial playing and setup was done on that at Full HD ( 1920 x 1080 ) absolutely fine. Then the nightmare begins. I managed to get a MSI GTX1650 Ventus XS and followed you installation info and updated drivers. Well Ok, works fine, that is if you don't mind your Win 10 desktop set at 1680 x 1050, and in win10 display settings it does say next to the setting ( recommended ), but above it was a 1920 x 1080 so lets select that one. No go, a desktop mess, and no matter what I try it's fixed at 1680 x 1050 for all normal everyday working as the PC is also general usage PC, but had hoped to get a reasonable game experience from it as well as the serious stuff. I am bitterly disappointed by these GTX1650's with this being the result and wonder what you may recommend as an alternative that can do some decent gaming but at least be useful at full hd for all the normal day to day use cases. Just a heads up for anyone watching this and not realising this, but off course if it is only a games machine you need well then no problem, Thks for your well done vids & Kind Rgds, PS the HP machines as you say are wonderful boxes, very well thought out.

    A GTX1660 super needs around 125W of power. I think there is a good chance this might work but it is on the limits on the machine. Depends a bit on the other components present.

    An RX580 consumes up to 185W so that would require a heavier power supply. You'd also be missing the PCIe power connectors on the HP-power supply. So a GTX1650 would still be an easier choice with nearly the same performance.
