1) That depends if you have a 180 watt power supply, you can't have a minimum of a 250 watt power supply.
2) supports 64 GB of DDR4-2933 (UDIMM) ram, this frequency is not sold and you must put DDR4-3200, then the memory BUS lowers the frequency to 2933. It depends if you have HDD or M.2 NVME SSD, if only have a HDD you have a M.2 slot for M.2 NVMe disks of the size you want from 1TB, 2TB or more. Also if you have a HDD you can change it for a SSD.
Supported processors are:

Thanks for your help.
""1) That depends if you have a 180 watt power supply, you can't have a minimum of a 250 watt power supply"" My power is 180watt. But After i install quadro k2200 card , when PC starting there is no HP logo appear and can not access BIOS, boot, PC goes directly to windows. PC works normally when i remove the quadro card. I tried to install this card to other computer, everything was ok. If you need the proof, i will show you

I don't know why it doesn't make it into the BIOs, but one reason may be that it doesn't have 250 watts PSU HP.

Enter the BIOS and activate legacy mode, although this may cause you to reinstall windows.
