What will be the best GPU to buy for my HP Envy 700-074, Motherboard uATX MS-7826 Kaili?. ThIs is really what my PC is MOST lacking  and I really need help finding out what will really fit/work best for it. (Worried that any GPU will hit the DIMM slots on this motherboard).

@RobertoT24,

If there had a clash with the DIMMS, it would have been reported 6-7 years ago.

Why do you want to add a GPU card? IS there a particular game, if so, name the most intense.  From what I can see on EBAY, the PSU has 2 6pin PCIE power plugs.  The following are based on wattage needs and existing plug.  The RX550, GTX 1050 and GTX 1050Ti,  and GTX 1060.  Without knowing the reason, I would not be able to suggest a card.  Alas, you 7 year CPU chip might create a bottle-neck.

I’ll like to run games like fortnite and valorant on this HP, fortnite says my GPU needs to be better to run smoother and all. I have a intel 4600 HD.
