@micdep0 , welcome to the Community.

The motherboard in your computer is HP proprietary. It has a 4-pin power connector instead of a standard 24-pin ATX power connector. You will have to buy any PSU upgrade from HP.  The most powerful PSU that HP has that will be compatible with your motherboard is 500W (L05757-800).  You will have to contact HP Customer Support to see if they have one to sell to you.

Here is a HP Knowledge Base article that explain what to consider when adding or upgrading a video card in your computer.

Here are the Motherboard Specifications for the computer.  Look at the section titled "Memory upgrade information" for the specifications and maxium memory you can use.  I suggest checking with Crucial Memory to see what they recommend.  If their app recommends memory for your computer it is guaranteed to work.  Crucial Memory is the retail branch of Micron.
