I was trying to install the tp link AX3000 wifi 6 PCle adapter but when I tried looking for the f usb port to connect it to I couldn’t find it. Is there a chance it isn’t in this model?

Hang on. It is a PCIe adapter why you want to connect to a USB port ???? The specs of your machine is

 

               https://www.hp.com/us-en/shop/pdp/hp-pavilion-gaming-desktop-tg01-2260xt-pc-1k4j3av-1#techSpecs

 

It has ONE PCIe port for wireless adapter which is occupied by

              Realtek 802.11a/b/g/n/ac (1x1) Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® 4.2 combo-MIMO supported  (bad)

        or  Realtek 802.11a/b/g/n/ac (2x2) Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® 5 combo -MIMO supported   (better)

 

Therefore NO spare slot for you to add UNLESS you remove the old one.

 

Regards.

@Banhien
So I can do it right? And if I were to do it where would the f-usb port be?
