So i was looking to upgrade my pre-built pc (which you can upgrade)  and it had no gpu.  That moment of time i was not an expert, so i just bought it.  I have this; https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/26143063 and it shows you what i have. I want a bulky graphics card, but i need a power supply.  So i need someone to answer my question.  Does someone have a recommendation of what graphics card i can get under $250 that works well and a power supply that will work perfectly.  (My mother board is an hp 843b)

Can you send pictures of where the motherboard, especially where there seems to be cables entering from the power supply, there's more than a good chance that you might not be able to upgrade the power supply, and I just want to confirm.

I believe you need an SFX PSU and jump some cables on it, I remember seeing someone doing this with a Pavilion 590. A 5500XT, or an RX 580 (if you can find one for a good price used), seems to be a good fit for these machines.

 

Yep, found the video. The guy was pretty thorough, so watch the video.

ibabyslapper, i dont know if this will work, but i found this;https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Bronze-Certified-Modular-CP-9020101-NA/dp/B00ALK3KEM/ref=sr_1_9?crid=2CXOK0HH03ZCS&dchild=1&keywords=sfx%2Bpower%2Bsupply&qid=1587223905&refinements=p_n_feature_keywords_two_browse-bin%3A6906983011&rnid=6525659011&s=pc&sprefix=sfx%2B%2Celectronics%2C174&sr=1-9&th=1 and then a gtx asus 1660 super; https://www.amazon.com/Gaming-GeForce-Overclocked-Graphics-TUF-GTX1660S-O6G-GAMING/dp/B081SPGMBD/ref=sr_1_9?dchild=1&keywords=gtx%2B1660%2Bsuper&qid=1587172381&s=electronics&sr=1-9&th=1  I need to know if there is any other psu that works like this, but a cheaper price.  If there is, then i can finally upgrade my pc.  If not, it is still ok becuase i have enough money for this psu. Just looking for ways to save money.
