“I know you need better power supply (400+ watt) to add a decent video card. Question: How complicated is it to add a new power supply and a decent video card? Is there something like HP proprietary components that would make this difficult? Thank you.”

Hi. If you are considering to purchase this desktop, you might look at the Pavilion gaming laptop for $100 more instead! It has the upgraded video card you need and similar specs. If you needed more RAM that is an easy & inexpensive upgrade. Here is a link: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/hp-gaming-desktop-amd-ryzen-5-series-3500-8gb-memory-nvidia-geforce-gtx-1650-512gb-ssd-shadow-black/6383571.p?skuId=6383571 If you already have the TP01-0040, it has the L08660-800 - 180W power supply installed. This chassis can also use the L64961-800 - 310W power supply, and the connectors should be the same. I hope this helps you. HP uses proprietary connectors, and the chassis only allows for HP specified power supplies.
