HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop 690-0022na

AlfredW28 asked the question about upgrading a HP 690 Pavilion to a RTX 3050 or 3060.

 

https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/GPU-upgrade-options-compatibili...

 

Well I've done it with an RTX 3060 and it was easy.....works fine.

 

Recommended PSU for my model of RTX 3060 https://www.palit.com/palit/vgapro.php?id=4107&lang=en&pn=NE63060019K9-190AF&tab=sp is 550w (I have upgraded to a 500w PSU) - but checking the wattage demands on my existing PC specs comes in at less than 400w (do the maths).

 

I've also upgrade the CPU and cooling fan.

 

I have seen a US Techie install a RTX 3070 on a HP 690 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gBkdfvf_gg
