I'm on an HP Pavilion Power Desktop. Will I be able to upgrade my GTX 1060 3gb to a GTX 1660 Super? If not, could anyone please suggest a a more appropriate upgrade?

hi

https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/hp-pavilion-power-580-000-desktop-pc-series/16425610/model/1886...

Internal 300 W PSU

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 (3 GB)

Total power consumption: 120 W

External power cable: One 2x3 (6 pin) ;you need to check whether more connector or not

 

this is only an example, but depending on the model it will not be possible, and I think that for all this series, for the power
so here:

https://www.asus.com/Motherboards-Components/Graphics-Cards/Dual-Mini/DUAL-GTX1660S-O6G-MINI/techspe...

450W

Power Connectors

1 x 8-pin
see the recommendations of @old_geekster  kb
 
with some manufacturers, if you cannot replace the power supply, you can choose
ex: recommended PSU 300w
ASUS Dual GeForce GTX 1650 is your ticket into PC gaming
so you shouldn't hope for more performance (I haven't compared it with yours, which is offered with research)
