[flaco110]

I have an Omen 870-210 i3computer that i upgraded to an i7-7700 and I also upgraded my GPU to an 1050 ti 4g from the stock RX 460 2gb.  Unfortunately my 1050ti GPU isn't working any more and i was wondering what other GPU could I upgrade to that's better then a 1050ti?

@flaco110,

Welcome to our HP User Forum!

In order to fit a better/more powerful graphics card in your OMEN by HP Desktop PC - 870-210 (Z5M40AA), which, according to: https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/omen-by-hp-870-200/13687063/model/15789213/document/c05380402, is fitted with a 300-watt power supply, you'll need to upgrade your power supply.

Fortunately, your Thimphu-K (SSID: 2B4B) motherboard is 24-pin ATX-power enabled, meaning that you can swap out the original power supply with any industry standard ATX power supply, as long as you watch the dimensions ((LxHxW) of the ATX power supply for fit inside your computer case.

Once you replace the anemic 300-watt power supply with a 550+ watt power supply, you'll have plenty of graphics card options, just make sure, again, the the GPU's physical dimensions are a fit for your PC case, and that your power supply provides the necessary 6-pin or 6+2-pin PCIe power cable(s) as needed by the GPU.

Hope this was helpful.

@flaco110,

If, however, you want to stick with the 300-watt power supply, one of the very best -if not the best graphics card that you could fit in your desktop would be the GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1650 OC 4GB GDDR5, which is on sale right now for an incredibly low price of $185 [09/21/2022] here: https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-geforce-gtx-1650-gv-n1650oc-4gd/p/N82E16814932150?Description=Gigaby....
