Hi @cidco71,
Welcome to the HP support community.
Please help us with the laptop serial number or the product number on a private message for further assistance. As Upgrading your HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop TG01-2170m with a different GPU involves several considerations, including physical dimensions, power requirements, and cooling capacity. The original GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER you mentioned is a mid-range GPU often found in compact, single-fan versions suitable for smaller cases.

You may check this in the meantime, To determine if an RTX 4060 GPU can fit in your HP Pavilion TG01-2170m, you should check the following:
Physical Dimensions: Compare the dimensions of the RTX 4060 (length, height, width) with the available space inside your desktop's case. HP Pavilion Gaming Desktops are generally designed to be compact, so space might be limited. You need to ensure there's enough room not just for the GPU itself but also for adequate airflow around it.
Power Supply Requirements: Ensure that your desktop's power supply unit (PSU) can handle the RTX 4060's power consumption. The RTX 4060 will likely have higher power requirements than the GTX 1660 SUPER. You should check the wattage and the available power connectors (such as 8-pin or 6-pin PCIe power connectors) to ensure compatibility.
Cooling and Ventilation: The RTX 4060 might generate more heat than your current GPU, especially if it's a more powerful model. Check if your current cooling solution (case fans, etc.) is adequate to dissipate the extra heat. A single-fan GPU is designed to fit and cool efficiently in smaller spaces, but if you have enough ventilation, a dual-fan RTX 4060 might still be an option.
Motherboard Compatibility: While most modern GPUs use a standard PCIe slot, it's still worth checking your motherboard for any potential compatibility issues.
