Hi, I have a HP OMEN 870-213w
1070 gtx
i7-7700
500 psu
16gb ram
I was wondering if there was any possibility to upgrade the psu that I can buy online (not hp support) and a gpu like a 5060 or any other one I have a budget of $350 to spend right now just need help with that, also to see if a certain gpu needs amount of watts or if I don’t have to upgrade the psu and where I could buy these items. Please and thank you for your time

Welcome to the HP Support Community! We're here to help you get back up and running.
Thanks for laying out your specs so clearly. With a budget of $350 and your current setup (i7-7700, GTX 1070, 500W PSU), you're in a solid position to upgrade your GPU—and possibly your PSU if needed.
