HP Pavilion 590-p0057c
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,  I just recently bought the Hp Pavilion 590-p0057c and I'm using it for gaming. It works fine, but I'd like to know if I have the option to upgrade in the future if I so desire. It came with a AMD RX550 FH 2GB G5.

 

But I couldn't find any information on the product page if I could upgrade the graphics card or not or what would even be compatiable with it if I could? I'm not PC savvy ._. 

 

Any help would be much apprecaited!

Hi:

 

The motherboard does have a PCIe x16 expansion slot for a video card.

 

You would have to remove the video card that it comes with from the factory, because it is currently occupying that expansion slot.

The PC comes with a 310W power supply, so as long as you get a video card that works within the limits of 310W, then you can install a video card that does not need additional power cables attached to it.

 

I wouldn't know what specific model graphics cards would work with your PC.

 

The one that your PC comes with seems pretty decent.
