You are quite welcome.
According to: https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=04G-P4-1057-KR, the height of an EVGA GTX 1650 SC ULTRA 4GB GDDR6 is: 4.38in - 111.3mm -it is also not a low-profile card, whereas according to: NVIDIA RTX A2000 | A2000 12GB Professional Graphics Card | NVIDIA, the height of a Nvidia RTX A2000 6GB is only: 2.70in - 68.6mm.
The problem is that an HP EliteDesk 800 G4/G5 SFF can only fit a graphics card which height doesn't exceed about 3.5in - 90mm -pushing it. It so happens that my primary (gaming) PC is a heavily upgraded HP EliteDesk 800 G5 SFF (link: HP EliteDesk 800 G5 SFF Performance Results - UserBenchmark), so I can show-and-tell you right away what I mean:
And you are correct, an RTX A2000 6GB graphics card is expensive (UK eBay: rtx a2000 6gb for sale | eBay), as well as in the US. To its defense, these cards have an incredible performance to wattage-ratio, are very much sought after, and will keep their value very well indeed.
Another worthwhile low-profile card, for example, would be an MSI GeForce GTX 1650 Low-Profile 4GB GDDR5, with a height of 2.28in - 57.9mm: MSI GeForce GTX 1650 4GT LP OC Graphics Card '4GB GDDR5, 1695MHz, Low Profile design, HDMI, DVI-D, H....

Welcome to our HP User Forum!
Having upgraded an HP EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF to the max and beyond (Solved: Upgrading HP EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF - HP Support Community - 8523990), I believe I am qualified to answer this question for you.
First, please check what power supply you got. Chances are that it is a 180-watt PSU, which you'll have to upgrade to an HP 250-watt power supply (HP p/n: L08417-004 "ENT18 92pct. HV 12V 1OUT1 250W Power Supply"). You can purchase one of these power supplies for less than $20 via eBay (which is where I got mine from), such as this purchase example: HP Power Supply 250w EliteDesk 800 G4 4-Pin L08417-004 4379414435651 | eBay.
One of the few graphics cards that will actually fit inside an HP EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF and can be sufficiently powered with a 250-watt power supply -and the one I would strongly recommend, is a Nvidia RTX A2000 6GB GDDR6 fitted with the low profile bracket, such as this purchase example: https://www.ebay.com/itm/155366411241?epid=23051537244&hash=item242c8f4be9%3Ag%3ArtoAAOSwVM1jUXqR&am...:
You can check what other Users have fitted inside -or in my 'case', outside their HP EliteDesk 800 G4 SFFs here: UserBenchmark: HP EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF Compatible Components (first three scores happen to be mine), and you'll see plenty of RTX A2000's listed amongst the best performance scores. Second best option would be the low profile GTX 1650 or the low profile GTX 1050 Ti, and the low profile GTX 1050.
However, whatever you are going to buy, please carefully measure the dimensions -especially height for fit.
Hope this was helpful.

Thank you for your help however.
The NVidia RTX A2000 6GB GDDR6 is way out of my budget.
And I am struggling to find a low profile 1650, 1050ti or 1050 that doesn't leave me penniless.
However there is a card called EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 4GB GDDR6 curranty going for £125 on CEX. Despite it being second hand it is rated highly and the price is significantly cheaper than buying it from Nvidia stores. However I am yet to find an answer to whether it will actually fit the HP EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF. I have spent hours trying to find an answer but I do not think I am asking the right questions so thought it would be better to ask a expert.
EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 4GB GDDR6
Dual slot | Length: 202mm, 8 inches Height: 111mm, 4.4inches
TDP:75W PSU: 250W
Other details can be found on: EVGA GTX 1650 SC ULTRA GDDR6 Specs | TechPowerUp GPU Database
If it can not, thank you for the help so far and I will see if I am able to purchase one of the suggested graphic card
