“@HP people: If Nvidia says the 3060 GPU requires a 550W PSU or greater, why does this only have a 500W? Even if it works that means it runs less efficiently right? Please don't cut corners on these small items. It saved you $10 maybe but it makes it worse”

Nvidia rates the power requirements slightly high because they don't know what system a card is going into and what other hardware may be included. Because HP and Nvidia have worked together, they know what the power requirements are for the rest of the hardware, so a 500 watt PSU is fine.
