upgrade GPU and power surce

[AdrianCatrina]

Hello, I want to update the graphics of my computer, I have an HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop PC TG01-1000i (8BG55AV) with a 1650 SUPER graphics card and a 310W source, clearly I would have to change the source for a more powerful one to update to the 3060 that I would like to acquire. Could you tell me if there is an official HP source that I can use to upgrade to a 3060?

Thank you so much.

@AdrianCatrina,

Welcome to our peer-to-peer HP Community Forum!

Your HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop PC TG01-1000i (8BG55AV) power supply as fitted with the Baker motherboard (SSID: 8767), can be upgraded with a 500-watt power supply with part number L05757-800.

This power supply is more than sufficient to power an RTX 3060.

Please verify your motherboard's SSID by typing in: system information in your Windows search bar, and clicking on the System Information App.  Find: "BaseBoard Product", and to the right you'll find an alpha numerical number.  Check that it says "8767".

Hope this was helpful.

Kind Regards,

thanks, the mother board ssid is 8767. I have anothe question, I can use any type of rtx3060 like of  gygabite or msi, or is a must to use an HP 3060?

@AdrianCatrina,

Any kind of RTX 3060.  Please note that some RTX 3060 cards are powered through a 12-pin PCIe power connector, which requires a power adapter cable. Personally, I would choose a model that is powered with one 8-pin PCIe power cable, such as this model: ASUS TUF RTX 3060 GAMING Specs | TechPowerUp GPU Database.
