Greetings,

Welcome to the forum.

I am not a HP employee.

 

Your PC has Intel integrated graphics and a uATX 180 power supply. You also have a PCIe 3.0  x16 slot.

 

You have an i5 4460 CPU now. This could become a bottleneck in some games if you want to AAA game at high resolutions and high FPS.

 

This x16 slot looks good for installing most dual slot graphics cards available for sale.

 

I can't tell you what graphics card to buy without knowing what you want to do.

 

Choosing the correct power supply upgrade depends on what graphics card you want.

 

Very hard to answer your question.

 

Regards
