HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop 690-0067c
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

The HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop 690-0067c I have came with the RX550 GPU. I use this machine for gaming, and I want to improve the graphics card. I am looking at the GTX 1070ti (or something similar), but I have a couple of questions.

 

Will this card even fit in the case? What is the maximum size for a GPU for my machine?

 

Do I have to worry about power? The specs for the NVIDIA 1070ti say that they recommend a 500w power supply, but it looks like my machine has a 350w power supply. Is this a serious problem?

 

Is there a list of good graphics cards that I can use? Are there any specific GPUs that any of you have used and been successful with?

Greetings,

Welcome to the forum.

I am not a HP employee.

 

Your PC's PSU is a proprietary HP part. This PSU does not have a standard 24 pin motherboard connection.

 

This PSU is also a small form factor (SFF) power supply.

 

You can upgrade this power supply to a HP 400 watt SFF part. The part number is L04618-800. This part can be purchased at HP Part Surfer (Link).

 

The best Nvidia graphics card you can do by upgrading to the HP 400 watt power supply is a dual slot GTX 1060. The 1060 is about 10 inches in length. The 1060 requires one six pin PCIe connection from the power supply. I don't know if the HP 400 watt SFF power supply upgrade provides this connector. Nvidia is expected to release a RTX 2050 shortly. 2050 specifications are not available at this time.

 

You would have to verify a ten inch graphics card will fit in your PC's chassis. You will have to verify the HP 400 watt SFF power supply has a six pin PCIe connector to power the 2060.

 

Regards
