I want to upgrade my PC Desktop ENVY TE01-4020. I would like to know if I am able to install a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 and what PSU would I be able to use to power it.
Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Apologies for the delayed response.
The P3 cable was removed from the old PSU and has been soldered to the 650watt PSU (p/n: L36049-003) to extend its P3 cable. The Graphics Card was finally delivered and installed to my HP Envy PC and all is working well. I ended up with a RTX 4060 Ti instead after getting a good deal on it.
Thanks for the help and I hope this helps other HP Envy owners.

Welcome to our HP community forum!
Your HP ENVY Desktop PC TE01-4020 (7Y6Y7AA) as fitted with the RenoR motherboard (SSID: 8B3B), likely powered by a 310-watt power supply (p/n: L10875-800) or a 400-watt power supply (p/n: L69242-800) -please verify.
Ideally, a 550+ watt power supply is recommended to power an RTX 4070, but this "HP System Envy TE01-4xxx" User link suggests that people are able to power 200-watt TDP graphics cards (e.g. RTX 3060 Ti) just fine with a 500-watt power supply upgrade (p/n: L05757-800), which you can purchase online, such as via an eBay Seller: HP L05757-800 for sale | eBay.
My recommendation for an RTX 4070 would be a smaller-sized (two fan) model powered by a single 8-pin PCIe power cable, such as this one: ASUS DUAL RTX 4070 Specs | TechPowerUp GPU Database.
Hope this was helpful.

Thank you NonSequitur777 for responding. Yes, it is the RenoR motherboard (SSID: 8B3B) as you claimed.
I have pulled the following details from the PSU: 310-Watt (p/n: L08262-004).
Are there any other PSU over 500-watt available for this Desktop that I could install?
Thanks,

This topic comes up frequently, and I continue to research.
So, there is a very good chance* that this 650-watt power supply with p/n: L36049-003 / L57253-003 may be compatible with your desktop. If your desktop was mine, that is what I would definitely try. You can purchase this PSU online, such as from this eBay Seller: New For HP Envy-795-0003UR Z2 G4 800 880 PSU Power Supply 650W DPS-650AB-30A US | eBay.
This power supply is expensive to purchase via eBay, though. There are much less expensive AliExpress purchase options, such as this one, but returns are problematic.
* Disclaimer: If it doesn't work, return and get your hard-earned money back. However, be hopeful: the proprietary "P2" power connectors for both power supplies are identical:
Hope this was helpful.

Let the Forum know if the 650 watt HP PSU works. If you decide to try it.
Nice @NonSequitur777 , this would be great if HP Txxx PCs can use a 650 watt PSU.
The only limiter now would be the size of the graphics card!

@NonSequitur777
I've received the 650watt PSU (p/n: L36049-003) to install into my HP Envy PC. One issue I'm currently experiencing is that the length of P3 cable is not long enough to reach it's receptacle. I was able to temporarily fixate the PSU where I could connect the cables to the motherboard and successfully turned on the PC.
I plan on cutting the P3 cable from my old PSU and solder it to the new PSU. I have the RTX 4070 ordered and I'll report back when I have it installed.
Thanks for the help.
