h9-1150
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I want to upgrade my Nvidia GYX-550-Ti video card on this older HP h9-1150, with PCI Express x16 interface.

I just upgraded to 32GB RAM (was cheap).  The Video card benchmarks are very low.  

The CPU is an Intel Core i5-3550

MOBO -  PEGATRON CORPORATION 2AD5 (SOCKET 0)

What options do I have?  (dont say a new computer, budget constraints)

Want to keep the video card upgrade under $350 if possible.  I know there are older model video cards out there, just NO HP support on which I can upgrade to.  Any advice on a compatible video card upgrade for this rig?

Hello
I have this model:

https://support.hp.com/fr-fr/product/HP-Pavilion-HPE-h9-Phoenix-Desktop-PC-series/5258492/model/5297...
Originally it is equipped with an ati hd7950
the power supply except error 600w
I was able to test a gtx 1070, but this may depend on the model found .. bios version 8.xx

https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/hp-pavilion-hpe-h9-1100-phoenix-desktop-pc-series/5154893/docum...

 
Must select one of the following options:
  • GeForce GT 545 (3 GB)
  • GeForce GTX 550 Ti (1 GB)
  • Radeon HD 6850 (1 GB)
  • Radeon HD 7670 (1 GB)
  • Radeon HD 7770 (2 GB)
  • Radeon HD 7950 (3 GB)
