@KazimShawon,

 

Welcome to our HP community forum!

 

The graphics card you referenced, an MSI GeForce RTX 3050 VENTUS 2X 6G OC 6GB GDDR6, has a 130-watt TDP and requires one 8-pin PCIe power cable.  You could install that card with no problems if you got the 400-watt power supply (p/n: 942332-001).  If you got the 250-watt power supply, you would need to upgrade your power supply.

 

On the other hand, if you meant the MSI RTX 3050 Low Profile 6 GB -which does have a 70-watt TDP and doesn't require a PCIe power cable, then you could install it without any issues in your PC with a 250-watt power supply.

 

Hope this was helpful.

 

Kind Regards,
