@Pratyush_123 , welcome to the forum.

 

Here is a HP Knowledge Base article that will help you.  According to the information that I could find on your workstation it was released in 2010.  Therefore, I don't believe that it will work.  The GT 730 requires UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard/Legacy BIOS.  HP didn't begin using UEFI until mid-October, 2012.  The last series of cards not to require UEFI were the GTX 660/670 series.
