I am looking into upgrading a video card on this PC. Currently the desktop is using:
Intel UHD Graphics 630
My specs tell me i have one PCIe x16 socket which i intend to use for a video card.
The processor on this desktop is an 8th gen i5 +8400. The memory can take DDR4 2666 SDRAM PC4-21300 (the desktop currently has 8GB, I intend to max that to 16GB potential based off the motherboard type)
I could not find any further specs for the motherboard on this PC which would give me a better idea as to the type of video card it can actually take.
The motherboard model in this desktop is:
Lincs MB
17514-1 Rev. A
348.OA817.0011

I have added your unit to the spreadsheet. (It will appear very soon). The data is valid for any 590 series computer.
HP utlizes a proprietary PSU design. An ATX 24 pin PSU will not work. Here is a spreadsheet that explains the different PSU part numbers. Sadly the most popular, the 400W #L04618-800 is 2 months out-of-stock. You order, and wait ! The other, the 942332-0001 is available, but you need to search the web for a "livable" price.
It is beneficial to mention the needs. The most intense game-play comes to mind. Then a GPU and PSU can be recommended.
