Product: HP Pavilion Gaming - TP01-1105t
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I got a game that recommends NVIDIA RTX 2070 or AMD Radeon RX 5700XT (minimum NVIDIA GTX 970/1650 or AMD Radeon R9 290X). I've never upgraded graphics before, so I hope someone out there with the same model desktop can let me know if the motherboard, power source & dimensions of the tower can handle one of these cards.

The specs of your machine is

 

          https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c06701111

 

The NVIDIA RTX 2070  requires machines with 650W or greater PSU. The specs shows your machine only has  180 W Gold efficiency power supply therefore new card won''t run.  You need heaps more of power for your machine
