I just upgraded my memory from 8GB to 16GB and was wondering if the (long name ) Asus GeForce 950-M-26D5 128bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 HDCP ready graphics card would work on my p/c or does HP have an equivalent for it?

You will have two issues with the video card 1) will it fit into the space provided for the card and 2) you will have to upgrade the power supply unit (PSU).  The existing PSU is only 300W.  You can check the specs on the card to determine how much power is required.  I like Corsair products.  To determine if the card will fit you can measure from the Back I/O plate to the front of the case.  This will allow you to see if any of the other components will be in the way of the card.
