Greetings to everyone. I wanted to know which GPU might be best considering the compatibility with my Foxconn 17a0 motherboard. the bios version is 7.05 and I was wondering if I could use a gtx 1050 ti. My PC specs are,
CPU: i7-2600 3.40 ghz
ram:8 gb
currently using a GT 610 card

Welcome to our HP community forum!
It would be helpful to know what model PC you got.

Thank you for the follow up. Btw, based on the information you provided in your first post (Foxconn motherboard 17A0), you got an HP Pro 3330 MT, not an HP Pro 3300 MT.
Just some FYIs: the best possible processors you can install/are compatible with your desktop are the i7-2700K and the i7-3770K.
[EDIT:] Anyway, your question was if you could install a GTX 1050 Ti, and the answer is yes, as either the 250-watt or 300-watt stock power supplies would be able to power this card, which requires a minimum 250-watt PSU. Since your motherboard is 24-pin ATX-power enabled, meaning, you could swap your current power supply with any industry standard ATX power supply as long as you watch its dimensions (LxWxH) for fit inside your case, you could aim higher than a GTX 1050 Ti, like what this HP Pro 3330 MT User did, who installed an RTX 2060 Super, likely with a 500-watt power supply.
