Hp Elitedesk 800 G1 case swap!

[@johno9163]

This video was a big help as I just did a case swap on my 800 G1 MB. The PSU adapter worked like a charm but I do have the USB warning when first booting but considering I leave the system on all day and the USB ports work fine, it is just a once a day annoyance. Other than that it is a sweet to have the MB in a much nicer case with a 600W PSU. I should have done this long ago. And it worked out even better as the thermal paste was getting pretty dry and needed to be replaced on the CPU and cooler. Thanks for the great video and all of the information on doing the swap!

[@jrose-xp6tf]

I use those Arduino wires too, mostly for fan sensor jumping on older Optiplexes. I even made a 24 pin harness adapter out of them once years back, good vid man.

[@adrianb5582]

thank you so much for making this, this exact model was actually given to us and i’ve been upgrading it slowly and on offer up for deals on parts for a budget build. and not gonna lie there’s something so hot and sexy bout recycling tech i think this computer shit might be a new hobby

I love refurbishing and bringing back to life old thrown out hardware. Fun to figure out the tricks!!

[@TribbleBot]

I just picked up an i7 one of these at an auction for under $20. Now you've got me contemplating a swap into an old HP Pavilion case I have. 🤔🤔🤔

[@b0ne91]

I love, love love using HP ProDesk 400 (G1/G2) and 280 (G1/G2) upgrades. They take regular ATX power supplies (no adapters needed), support E3 Xeons and are EASILY turned into gaming PCs. Sometimes for longer GPUs, I dremel out a tiny piece of metal (second hard drive cage). I don't case swap, because it's not worth it imo (not until GPU prices allow me to turn them into $500 systems again). Those $250-300 systems with a $20 PSU and old GCN 1.0 cards are great entry level systems for a lot of kids.

[@DLMtechgarage]

GPU prices killed me on the budget builds...... for the sff i only do the case swap. the regualar matx I just throw in a gpu psu ssd and flip them easy!!.... before crazy graphics card prices ofcourse lol...

[@justbored3.14]

update to the my upgrade. i was having errors where the motherboard would not boot but that was because of the cable i purchased from newegg. purchased the one from your link and everything worked. then i was having the usb and front audio issues but i fixed that now i found the original cable from the chassis and now i have no errors and super fast boot up. i had to cut the chassis apart to get the backplate for the fan. i could of gone to the store to get nuts but i was already throwing away the case might as well recycle some of it.

yup, you can put it into any case, the key is the pin out which is simple. Tech only fix and repair, not mod. This is more of a mod/hack

[@ela312]

​@@DLMtechgarage I was inspired by your video to do the same with my PC (800g1 ssf), the fact is that when I went to buy the adapter (of the psu) I saw that some were for the Z220 or Z230, I think a few more, well, the person who helped me . He told me to choose the correct model and power. Or else it would cause problems for my PC or it wouldn't work... would you help me with that? please sirrr

[@leandrodominguez3312]

​@@ela312 The motherboard is HP proprietary product that uses 6 pin to power it. A normal PSU uses 24 pin to power motherboards, and you might get a error when using a non HP PSU. You can use a 24 to 6 pin adapter that is intended for HP products and specifiy what PC model it is for, you can search for "PSU Main Power 24 Pin to 6 Pin Adapter Cable 30cm for HP EliteDesk 800" and use whatever PSU aslong as you have the correct adapter.

I'm doing exactly this, with the same power adapter, but when i try to turn on the computer all i get is a green blinking light. The only hint i have is a review with a similar issue that mentioned the standby signal being wrongfully sent, but didn't provide a solution for that. The HP I'm moving to a bigger case is a HP Elitedesk 800 G1 SFF, model number TPC-F046-SF. If i just plug the oriiginal PSU, the computer boots just fine, however if using the comeap adaptor and a normal PSU: When turning it on, it doesn't spin fans or anything, all you get is a green blinking led on the motherboard, steady and continous kind of blinking. The idea was to add a spare GPU i had to it, which is a HD7970, and the test have been done with 3 different PSUs and with or without the GPU, same exact result.

the bigger case just makes it so much easier to work on plus you can cram in more drives with a sata card - the 4th gen intel is decent and ddr3 is cheap - hp is solid - refurb value king - it blows away sbc.soc boards - no comparison - i think getting boards is best way to go - people probably want z440 v2 for max performance? the z420 is an option as well - can run 256gb ram

[@DLMtechgarage]

not on the sff versions, the matx you can.

[@ragakesa]

Hi boss where to connect the front power panel the reset connection? Do you have any clue. Thanks

[@DLMtechgarage]

i don't, not sure they had that option as every diagram I found did not have one listed.

[@fredneedle123]

Where can I get the SM Bus Controller driver? All links from HP and various forums lead nowhere.

[@giovannifarias3501]

Hey my dude I was wondering how you got those other fans to work like we’re are the connections for those I can’t seem to get mine to start I have an hp elite desk g2 sff if you can give me some feedback I would highly appreciate it

[@DLMtechgarage]

I use a sata to pwm splitter

[@giovannifarias3501]

Your a miracle worker bro lol highly appreciated is there any you recommend?

[@timbush4688]

great video mate. how did you solve the 515-Power Supply fan not detected error?

[@DLMtechgarage]

Only time I ran into that error was due to getting the wrong psu adaptor. has to be the exact one for the hp z240. the others look the same but are wired slightly different which causes the error.

[@timbush4688]

@@DLMtechgarage I found a fix. Wiring the blue wire from the adapter into the pwm rpm signal from the cpu fan :) note that in my case this was not a blue wire on the cpu fan wires

planning to case swap and upgrading my old hp 8300 cmt. can u give me the tips for that? or I just follow this video? because it have same 6 pins power supply connector

[@DLMtechgarage]

should be the same as this video, key thing to remember is to make sure the adaptor is specific to the 8300, hp uses the 6 pin but with various different pin outs depending on the board. if you get the wrong one it won't post. make sure the one you buy has support for the 8300. I am not too familiar with the 8300.

@@DLMtechgarage ahh I see thanks anyway

[@laurikvo]

You seem to know your HP’s really well. Any idea if Prodesk G1 power supply works in Prodesk G2? The cases on them looks almost exactly same as this EliteDesk. I was planning to make mashup upgrade with most of the parts other than MB+CPU coming from G1. I only need to buy DDR4 ram to the G2 if I proceed with my plan and have also a narrow GPU for it. Those HP’s are dirt cheap because G1 MB has some issues and G2 is missing half of the parts that I would get from G1 so it would be great combo if only the PSU plays nicely with the G2 motherboard…

[@BlueHoodie74]

@DLM tech garage, I have a question though, the CPU fan, is there any 3rd party fan recommendation or maybe you have found that fits this motherboard?? I'm looking to do an AIO cooling system for this one, but haven't found anything that fits, let alone the CPU fan. Any ideas? I'm looking at the CORSAIR H55, will this somehow fit? I also checked some Noctua brands for the LGA 115x but not sure if their brackets fit this motherboard... Reason I asked is that during heavy intensive CPU tests, the temps hit up to 80c and i'm concerned that the fan isn't able to keep up...I tried CPU burn and the factory CPU fan couldn't keep up

[@DLMtechgarage]

I never look into an a different cooling due to the mounting on this hp not being standard. i never had an issue with the temps as far as gaming and editing. Stress test run the cpu more intensely compared to typical usage.

[@BlueHoodie74]

@@DLMtechgarage okay thanks, no problem, I guess I'll be the first to try this out to see if I can find an AIO that fits this motherboard. I just purchased the ID-COOLING Frostflow x 240. It comes with different mounting points for LGA115X to 1700. So will see if this one will fit. If not then I'll return it. Thanks. 🙏

[@DLMtechgarage]

Keep me posted!!@@BlueHoodie74

[@BlueHoodie74]

@@DLMtechgarage, after further research, I ratracted from this idea. After watching long term reliability of the AIO and the way how corrosion occurs and leaks etc., I said forget it. I watched this video review and tests from Gamers Nexus regarding proper mounting of AIO's and materials used from it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJOqoKCsZp5oqc0 and based on my conclusion, it's not worth it. I'd rather keep my PC dry and not have any leaks or corrosion etc. I'm trying now to cancel the order of the AIO. hoping it gets cancelled. while it may look nice and cool to have the AIO's, on the motherboard, my concern there is leaks going to an expensive GPU (RTX 4070 TI) or the motherboard itself, or after 3-4 years of pump failure or mechanical failure, is just not very reliable. Compare that to a decent CPU fan, as per what you said on the video, the OEM's are good enough, i mean they last 10+ years. Sure it may end up dusty but can sure be blown air and be put back into circulation.

[@michaellowe2305]

I missed something, why are you taking the cpu heat sink off to begin with? Or was this just a mother board no cpu?

[@DLMtechgarage]

it is bolted to the case. only way to remove the board.

[@bryanmuir362]

The PC case I transferred the motherboard to has wires for a reset button. Where would I put these assuming they connect near the power switch?

not sure as I did not figure the reset button and everything i found, i was unable to find info on it.

[@oterotube13]

Please, can you provider a blackplate adapter for the cpu cooling. ? This is your missing part in your video (Amazon link) . I got just the motherboard i got a square figure cooler that doesn’t catch this hole. Truly thankful😅

[@DLMtechgarage]

their is no adaptor, you have to use the original cooler and buy the nuts to make it work.

[@donkeykong1234]

so why wouldn't i just plug something into those usb headers instead of jumpering ? it still throws the error?

[@gwikky83]

I followed this video to a T and I’m not getting anything. When I plug it in, the green light kicks on on the motherboard. I hit the power switch and it stays lit up for about 3 seconds then powers off, nothing. I’m a little disappointed. 😪

make sure you got the right converter, the error happens when you get the wrong one. it has to be specific for the 800g1... there are convertors for the different models and the pin outs are different.

not sure as the g6 board looks way different as its newer, some of the newer oem's are changing things so if you mod it, it can cause damage to the board.... I think this requires more research..... plus the adapters are specific for the models.
