I have an HP PRO 3330MT which has a foxconn 17a0 motherboard. I checked the bios option and it shows secure boot, fast boot, enable/disable legacy support, and UEFI boot sources. It also has a bios version 8.09. So, does this motherboard support UEFI? Because i wanna replace the gt 730 to an RX 470. (I already checked the PSU and measure the case so don't ask about it!) Thanks before

Yes it does have have UEFI BIOS support.
If you are looking at adding an AMD Radeon RX series card you will need to upgrade the PSU to one that has about 450W or better. The upgrade candidate PSU will have to have PCIe power connectors for the RX series video card. The 300W PSU it is delivered with does not supply enough currrent. If you are looking at the RX 480 8GB version, it requires a 500W or higher PSU and an 8-pin PCIe power connector.
BTW, telling us not to ask something specific is rather strange thing to do, considering you are here asking us for information.

Which brand and model of the AMD Radeon RX 480 are you installing?
It always helps other members when we hear success stories on specific desktop PC model series upgrades.

The verdict is a Yea(yes) or Nay(No). Yea and Nay is old English that is still used in American and UK English.
Where are you from?
It is the result, as in working or not, of the new video card in your motherboard.
