PSU:  HP utilizes a proprietary designed PSU, the max being the 500W L05757-800.   This spreadsheet of computer series includes your(TG01), and it will help.

GPU: some examples are shown on the spreadsheet.   Erica is AMD,  and Rother is Intel board.  All manufacturer's  custom their card, and variations in length is an issue. Be sure to measure.  Luckily you have an existing card to compare lengths.

CPU: specifications page and link to motherboard are found here.   Caution, that m.2 NVMe is only PCIex2 with the Erica motherboard.

RAM: Keep ram to the same speed.  MAX is 2x16MB
