Product: Hp pavilion p7-1534
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi, is it possible for me to upgrade the power supply and graphics card for my p7-1534. The graphics cards mentioned in the archive files on this web site are no longer available. 

I'm on a budget and hope to save money by buying and upgrading the parts in my computer myself

@Clarissasrtoro 

Here is your circa 2013 computer. Typically I ask what you want to do.  If your a avid gamer, mention the most intense game you play.  Any GPU card needs to be supported by a PSU , CPU, and RAM, otherwise it will bottleneck.   What is your budget ?  The GPU will determine the PSU wattage range.  A Corsair PSU can range from $60-100 (450W-650W). A decent GPU card starts from $150-300. (GTX 1650 to RTX 2060).  Finally RAM kits from Crucial. It will support 1 or 2 kits of 2x8GB, at &76 per kit.   Your A8 chip compares to an Intel i5-5300 series. The Trinity Quad-Core A10-5800K is about $60 or less.   After you tell me the reasoning, I  can fine tune the answer.  Hope you understand all the variables.
