Is it a 690 or a 790? You have stated both in your thread and they are quite different.
A Pavilion 690 has a n AMD Radeon RX 550 and it does not use a PCIe power connector. It gets its power from the PCIe x 16 slot.
A Pavilion 790 has either
NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX 2060 (6 GB GDDR6 dedicated)
or
NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX 2080 (8 GB GDDR6 dedicated)
NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX 2080 (8 GB GDDR6 dedicated)
Which PCIe x16 video adapter was your desktop delivered with?
You can open the case, while unplugged from household power, to see if there is a PCIe six or eight pin power connector plugged into the video adapter.
