Processor:Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700 CPU @ 3.60GHz

I'm a Gamer and i'm mainly look to upgrade my PC to handle better more detailed textures in games.
I would like to know exactly what type of chips/boards and drivers would be compatible with my device and any or all recommendations to it.
Reasonably with a budget of 300$ on both PSU and GPU recommendations.

@JaQ101 , welcome to the forum.
Here are the video card and power supply unit (PSU) that I found to stay within your budget:
Video card: https://www.newegg.com/msi-geforce-gtx-1650-super-gtx-1650-super-gaming-x/p/N82E16814137484
PSU: https://www.newegg.com/corsair-tx-m-series-tx650m-650w/p/N82E16817139207?Item=N82E16817139207
You should read the Reviews to see what users have to say about them. I gave you sufficient power for peak requirements. Now that you know what will work, you can decide if these are the two products that you want to buy. Otherwise, you can use them as examples of what you need. I suggest that you measure from the Back I/O ports to the front of the case to assure that the card will fit with space for good airflow. This is very important with more powerful cards.
If you have questions about either product you can contact the manufacturer's Tech Support for help.
Here is a HP Knowledge Base article that will explain some things to consider when upgrading your video card: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Gaming-Knowledge-Base/Upgrade-Video-Card/ta-p/7481981
