@ROGE_r,

Welcome to our HP Community forum!

You'll need a 500-watt power supply to power an RX 590, which also needs one 8-pin PCIe power cable.

Btw, do you have an HP Compaq Elite 8300 SFF, CMT or MT?

Yes, an RX 590 is compatible with the 8300 platform: https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/55558879.

Regardless, you'll need an ATX power adapter cable for your 8300 platform in order to use a 500-watt ATX power supply, such as this purchase example: https://www.amazon.com/COMeap-Adapter-Compatible-EliteDesk-13-3-inch/dp/B0CYBS1WZ5/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1....

@ROGE_r,

One should preferably never mix different RAM, but 'stick' with identical RAM: same brand, model, speed and capacity.

You may have to consider that your HP Compaq Elite 8300 CMT motherboard is defective and/or your RAM is compromised.  I can't tell for sure, of course, from a distance, but this has happened to me before too.  Fortunately, a replacement motherboard is inexpensive, starting at less than $20 via eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/286211522892?_skw=HP+657096-001&epid=23044579725&itmmeta=01JH9TJFAD3ZT4KFPX....

If your RAM is defective, replace it with 4x8GB of DDR3 1600 MHz RAM, such as this eBay purchase option: https://www.ebay.com/itm/153114473526?chn=ps&_trkparms=ispr%3D1&amdata=enc%3A10kdHKcoDR4aB65RPSC7mtw....
