@devo213,

Welcome to our HP Community forum!

Your HP Pavilion Gaming - TG01-0018 as fitted with an Erica motherboard (SSID: 8643), is compatible with the following processors:

AMD Ryzen 5 3600 (6-Cores, 12-Threads, 3.60 GHz up to 4.20 GHz, 65-watt TDP)
AMD Ryzen 7 3700X (8-Cores, 16-Threads, 3.60 GHz up to 4.40 GHz, 65-watt TDP)

You can purchase a Ryzen 7 3700X for less than $90 such as via this eBay seller: https://www.ebay.com/itm/285806776062?_skw=Ryzen+7+3700X&epid=19044541606&itmmeta=01JCBXGCWZ40KS51TX....

Please verify that you got a 310-watt (p/n: L64961-800) power supply. If you do, upgrade it with a 400-watt power supply with p/n: L04618-800 (or: 942332-001).

You can purchase this power supply online, such as via this trusted (top rated) eBay Seller: https://www.ebay.com/itm/387444525588?_skw=L04618-800&itmmeta=01JCBXCAHPBK9TP7199JEY4TS7&hash=item5a....

Wit this 400-watt power supply, you can upgrade your graphics card to a smaller-sized (dual fan) RTX 4060 powered by a single 8-pin PCIe power cable, such as this purchase option via Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-DisplayPort-Axial-tech-Technology-Auto-Extreme/dp/B0CVPDY3HN/ref=sr_1_3?....

And for RAM: I would suggest upgrading to a matching 2x16GB RAM kit, such as this affordable/quality 2x16GB dual-rank (2Rx8) RAM kit purchase option: https://www.amazon.com/Timetec-3200MHz-PC4-25600-Unbuffered-Computer/dp/B07FWLWXJK/ref=sr_1_5?crid=8....

You should also upgrade your primary (boot) M.2 NVMe SSD, such as this purchase example: Amazon.com: SAMSUNG 990 EVO SSD 1TB, PCIe Gen 4x4, Gen 5x2 M.2 2280 NVMe Internal Solid State Drive,....
