A little delayed, but I finally got the new 400w version installed to replace my 300w. Everything works as it should. All cables fit and it powers down without issue. So far so good!
Power Supply HDPLEX 400W DC-ATX
- Thread starter jeshikat
- Start date
Which thermal adhesive tape should I use with my HDPlex 400W and S4 Mini? I was looking at Arctic Thermal 1.0mm on Amazon.
is it enough to provide power for GTX 970 or gtx 1070 and i5 7600K with a lil bit overclock?
may be from 3.8 GHz base clock to 4.0 GHz or max 4.2 GHz, and for 6w xspc ion pump res combo, with 2 ek furios vardar fan (12w for 2 fans)
Will the HDPLEX 400w be enough for a Ryzen 1600 (no overclock) and a Gigabyte GTX1080 mini? If so, what power brick should I get for it?
Yes it will and you should go with dell 330W model.
Awesome thanks for the quick reply and now to look on ebay for a Dell 330w for under $50

Be very careful with those. There has been refurbs (badly done) and fakes floating around out there.Awesome thanks for the quick reply and now to look on ebay for a Dell 3302 for under $50
Generally I think folks have been reporting legit ones go for about $100, or direct from Dell for $145.
I got a bad one off Newegg for $75
You have to modify the end. Mine was modded to take a 4 pin XLR connector to the HDplex and a 4 pin female on the cable Eurocom provides.
Top notch power brick! Love mine!
No the 300w acdc will power the 400w dc unit. Dont need a dell brick if you have a ac-dc from hdplex.
I think Skudshark misread and thought you were talking about the 300w dc hdplex, which was the precursor to the 400w.
Yea thanks, I just wasn't sure since the hdplex ac-dc is quite a bit smaller than the dell brick
Despite being smaller, it's actually more capable having a peak maximum of around 400W. I believe the Dell will only accept peaks in the 360-375W range.
there's one more thing i would like to ask,
is it possible to set a 2 HDPLEX 400w in 1 rig?
example : my rig need 600W PSU and i want to use HDPLEX 400W, so it means I have to use 2 units HDPLEX 400W HiFi DC-ATX & 2 units HDPLEX 300W AC-DC for my rig,,
Does anybody try this set up before?

Bare in mind that the HDPLEX 300w AC-DC unit requires active cooling to keep its temps in check to sustain its 300w output.
For example a 250w system (Example: Intel i7 65w + GTX 1070 150w) being powered by the HDPLEX 300w AC-DC unit WITHOUT active cooling will shut down during a heavy gaming session.
The Dell 19V 330w AC Adapter however runs much cooler and does not require active cooling to power a 250w system during a heavy gaming session.
