Hello @Kiyubie_,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
I don't think there is any issue with the graphics card and as for the USB-C adapter, if you are looking into connecting a 1440p 144Hz monitor through HDMI, you will need a USB-C to HDMI 2.0 active adapter.
HP has two adapters like this:
HP Pavilion USB-C™ to HDMI 2.0 Adapter 2PC54A
or
HP USB-C to HDMI 2.0 1WC36UT
Third-party adapters should work as well.
Kind regards,
Edward
