Product: 570-p033w
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello, I would like to add a graphics card to my HP Pavilion 570-p033w. I understand the power supply unit which only has 180W makes it difficult, but I don't want to play the newest or greatest games; I only play World of Warcraft which has relatively low graphics. At the moment, I can play on 4/10 graphics settings which only lag when I'm around a lot of players all using abilities. Is there some graphics card I can use without upgrading the PSU that will increase performance?

@kashiark,

You need a single slot card at 50W or less.   The EVGA GT 1030 is only 30W.
