Welcome to our HP Community forum!
Please verify that you got an HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop TG01-2010 (328K5AA) as fitted with an Erica6 motherboard (SSID: 8906), as seen here: https://www.amazon.com/HP-Processor-Bluetooth-Pre-Built-TG01-2010/dp/B095HZFNNL.
The specs for this desktop indicates that you got a 400-watt power supply.
This PC is highly upgradeable, and it depends on what your upgrade budget is what you want to do.
For example, you could upgrade your graphics card to a smaller-sized (dual fan) RTX 4060, such as this Amazon purchase example: https://www.amazon.com/MSI-RTX-4060-Architecture-2X/dp/B0C8BPW1SP/ref=sr_1_4?crid=2IF1YZHK1WYZ9&dib=....
You could consider upgrading the processor to a Ryzen 7 5700G.
I would also recommend adding one 8GB RAM stick, preferably identical to the one you got.
Kind Regards,
