@aniforever , welcome to the forum.
I believe that you have UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard/Legacy BiOS: https://www.howtogeek.com/56958/HTG-EXPLAINS-HOW-UEFI-WILL-REPLACE-THE-BIOS/
Therefore, this should not be a problem. Here is a HP Knowledge Base article that will help you determine what to consider when upgrading the video card: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Gaming-Knowledge-Base/Upgrade-Video-Card/ta-p/7447100
As stated in the article, it would be a good idea if you choose a manufacturer and contact their Tech Support for help with choosing the best card for your system. This is mainly due to the age of your computer. It was released in December, 2012.

Thanks for answering sir. I have researched a lot on internet and also found out on youtube that some gamers are using this gpu coupled with i7 3770 without any problem , so the only possible issue i believe could have been of problem was the bios issue. And you have cleared that being UEFI bios i dont need to worry about this part too. So I am going for this awesome card now 😁
