@McYeetus,

Welcome to our HP community forum!

Yes, you can upgrade the power supply for your Erica motherboard (SSID: 8643) with a 500-watt power supply with p/n: L05757-800.

You can purchase one of these PSUs online, such as via this trusted/top-rated eBay Seller: NEW Power Supply PSU 500W For Envy 795-0003UR Desktop L05757-800 | eBay.

With a 500-watt power supply, you could upgrade your graphics card to a smaller-sized (dual fan) RTX 4060 Ti powered by a single 8-pin PCIe power cable, such as this model: ASUS DUAL RTX 4060 Ti OC Specs | TechPowerUp GPU Database.

You can upgrade your processor at least to a Ryzen 7 3700X (3.60 GHz up to 4.40 GHz, 8-Cores, 16-Threads, 65-watt TDP).

Kind Regards,

Is 500w the max I can do? And how good would my pc perform with a ryzen 7 3700 and a 4060 with 500w? Thanks for the information, wanted to make sure I didn’t get anything wrong.

@McYeetus,

Your desktop will do just fine with a Ryzen 7 3700X and an RTX 4060 or RTX 4060 Ti with power to spare.
