HP Pavilion Desktop - TP01-0034
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Please help! Finding upgrade products for a HP TP01-0034 seems impossible. I want to upgrade to a GTX970 graphics card (which I wish I could find out for sure that the TP01-0034 will accept it!) , but I  know 180w will not support that graphics card. So, is there a 400-500w power supply that can be used in the TP01-0034? A knowledgable response will be greatly appreciated.

@Real-RAR , 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.  HP has a 500W (L05757-800) that should be compatible with your motherboard.  You should contact their Customer Support to make certain they have one to sell you.

 

Here is an HP Knowledge Base article that will explain what to consider when adding or upgrading a video card.
