Hello. I would like to know if I can fit an i7 2700k and gtx 1070ti into my hp compaq 8200 convertible minitower. I should probably get a new PSU... Right? Will the case have enough airflow? Will I blow up my PC...?

hi

If you want to replace/add a graphics card, there are a few things you need to check

You have to check the manufacturers data, for the chosen model , Dimensions, power requirements, and additional pci connectors required >see @old_geekster 's kb

for the graphics card, I often recommend the Asus site with filter options

example 500w

See if others offer it, price/performance may vary...

sometimes no choice, you will have to change the power supply as well

and check bios version uefi or not ?
