Hi All This may seem like a stupid question but I have recently bought a HP 290 G1 Sff PC and was planning on putting a 1070TI in (id change the case) and I know that is has a 180watt PSU and wouldn’t be able to power such a graphics card so if I upgraded the PSU to a 550watt one would I be able to use the 1070TI as I was planning on making it into a Decent Gaming Rig 
thank you for reading

@AsianHenners,

 

Welcome to our peer-to-peer HP Community Forum!

 

This is not a stupid question whatsoever.  Unfortunately, despite researching, it appears that there are no compatible larger power supplies available for your HP 290 G1 SFF.

 

Looking at HP 290 G1 SFF benchmarks here, you can see that the only graphics cards Users have installed, happen to be low power, confirming the absence of 180+ watt power supplies...

 

Kind Regards,
