@lbabu , welcome to the Community.

 

Here is a HP Knowledge Base article that will explain what to consider when adding or upgrading a video card.  Once you have read the article you will be able to determine which video cards will work for you.

 

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.  The Product Specifications don't show the wattage of the power supply unit (PSU).  Once you know this information you can compare it to the manufacturer's suggested power requirements for the card that you choose.

Bit more complicated than I was hoping.  Since it has 32 G RAM and I am not a gamer or video editor I should be ok with the existing card.  So far it has been wonderful even on Zoom.  I just wanted to understand what could be done if I did have a problem.  Thanks so much.
