@loloburo,

 

Welcome to our HP Community forum!

 

Some upgrade suggestions:


Your HP Compaq Elite 8300 SFF can be upgraded to an i7-3770K, and 4x8GB of DDR3 PC3-12800, 1600 MHz, Non-ECC, UDIMM, 240-pin RAM sticks, such as:

 

4x8GB Crucial CT102464BD160B.C16
4x8GB Samsung M378B1G73EB0-YK0
4x8GB Hynix HMT41GU6MFR8C-PB

 

All running at 1600 MHz.


With your stock 240-watt power supply, you can power a low-profile RX 6400 graphics card (make sure you got a low-profile bracket with it).

 

You'll have to see how you can get the most out of your budget via online marketplaces such as eBay, Facebook or AliExpress.

 

Kind Regards,
