HP Victus GPU upgrade problem

[barettoblu52]

I bought an Asus 9060 XT dual fan for my victus 15l tg02-0073nl.

I was hoping I wouldn't need to replace the PSU, but when I tried installing the card and booting the PC, I get three long beeps and then 3 short beeps.

These are the things I tried:

reseated the card

Updated bios

Removed CMOS battery, waited 5 minutes and reseated it.

Sadly nothing works, I don't have another PC to test the GPU, and I'm starting to worry the 500W PSU might be the issue...

A 3:3 startup error code is a graphics card problem.

A typical 9060 XT requires a minimum 450 watt power supply. Your PC's 500 watt power supply should be good to go.

Some of the older HP PCs have problems with PCIe 5.0 graphics cards.

You may have to return the 9060 XT and shop for a PCIe 4.0 graphics card.
