Product: HP 280 G1

Hi! I need help. I have an HP 280 G1 desktop PC. I would like to expand it. I want to put an I5-4590 processor in it. This can be solved I know. The problem is, can I put a GTX 1060 graphics card in it? The power supply I know should be expanded is it feasible? Perhaps a GTX 1070 would still fit in? Or would the Gtx 1060 not fit either? I want 16GB of DDR3 in Ram. Please help!!

It would have been nice if you had stated which HP 280 G1 desktop you have.

Take a look at this HP 280 G1 upgrade components list. This is for the mini tower, not the slim version

https://www.userbenchmark.com/System/HP-280-G1-MT/15224

 

"Perhaps a GTX 1070 would still fit in? Or would the Gtx 1060 not fit either"  Probably not.
