Product: HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop 690-0028b

Hello, I'm planning to upgrade my computers graphics card. If I did my research correctly the GTX 1650 should be compatible with the sunflower motherboard inside my HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop 690-0028b. At least that's what I think it is. I'm still new to this so I might be wrong on what exactly it is but I'm fairly confident. Anyways I was wondering if I need to to change the power cables to the GTX 1650 after pulling the rx 550? If I'm not mistaken the rx 550 only uses 50 watts of power and the GTX 1650 seems to use 350 watts. I don't know how much power the cables in the base computer can transfer or if I'll need to get new cables for the power supply. Any info would be appreciated. Thank you for your time.
