To me, for me or about me, and how I describe the game Aces High, it's a place that can allow you to become an individual or a Member of a community! The doorway where you can actually make true, real-life friends who will help you and teach you certain things that you NEVER would have done otherwise.


So true.

So anyways, with my problem that I pushed myself into by, for 1 one, NOT using the stubborn head that God gave me!  So now I am looking at purchasing a new video card for this HP computer, along with what is probably going to be a new, higher-capacity power supply. Because I threw out the dam box really don't think that HP will allow me to return this desktop for getting an upgrade. Maybe I'm wrong (I hope to God I  am!)
So what I am asking you guys is, as of right now, these days, what is the better video card for me to purchase? I will  have to do this install on my own, the old school way, so the brand is up for anything that Amazon has in their house.

PS- I'm not broke but concidering my current situation I will have to be stingy with my dollars!

Always Thank you!

Can the video card and power supply be update in this computer to make it a gaming computer HP OmniDesk Desktop M02-0075t...

Chatgbt says:
Yes — you can physically add a dedicated video card and upgrade the power supply in your HP OmniDesk Desktop M02-0075t, but there are important limitations and challenges to turning it into a capable gaming PC.
🔍 What the M02-0075t Comes With
Your HP OmniDesk has:
Intel Core i7-14700 CPU with integrated Intel UHD Graphics (no dedicated GPU included) �
HP
180 W 80 Plus Gold power supply (very low wattage) �
HP
One PCIe x16 expansion slot available (the slot that a GPU would normally use) �
1WorldSync
This means there is a slot where a graphics card could go, but the machine is not designed for gaming GPUs out of the box.
⚠️ The Power Supply Is the Main Limitation
The stock 180 W PSU is far too weak for modern gaming graphics cards — most require significantly more power (for example, even entry-level cards often need 300 W+ systems). �
community.hp.com
Issues with the stock PSU
No adequate PCIe power connectors for a GPU
Insufficient wattage for gaming cards
Proprietary HP power interface, not a standard ATX PSU
Short answer: you cannot just plug a desktop GPU into it and expect it to work. �
community.hp.com
🔧 Upgrading the PSU
According to HP community posts for similar OmniDesk M02 models:
Upgradable HP-specific PSUs reportedly exist, such as:
280 W
400 W
500 W
These potentially support more powerful GPUs if they physically fit and have the right connectors. �
community.hp.com
However:
HP often uses non-standard power supply form factors/cables — they aren’t common ATX PSUs.
Finding compatibility info from HP is difficult; you must verify exact HP part numbers and fit inside your chassis. �
community.hp.com
👉 Theoretically possible: with a 400–500 W PSU upgrade that fits your case and motherboard.
🧠 Graphics Card Upgrade Options
Assuming you successfully upgrade the PSU to something like 400–500 W and confirm physical space and connectors:
With a 500 W PSU, people have reportedly installed GPUs such as:
NVIDIA RTX 4060 Ti
AMD RX 6600 XT
(real examples from M02 series owners) �
community.hp.com
Less powerful options (even without a PSU upgrade):
NVIDIA GT 1030, Quadro P600, AMD Radeon Pro WX 3100 — these can work with the stock PSU because they don’t need external power connectors and use little power. �
community.hp.com
But these aren’t true gaming-level GPUs — they’re entry-level.
⚙️ Other Considerations
✔️ Motherboard supports PCIe x16 so a GPU can be installed physically. �
❓ BIOS/firmware may not fully support high-end GPUs (some HP desktops are finicky).
📏 Space in the case may limit larger GPUs — measure before you buy.
⚡ You might need adapter cables or mods for power delivery.
💡 Some hobbyists have even used a second PSU externally to power the GPU, though that’s a workaround with risks. �

Reddit
✅ Summary
Component
Upgrade Possible?
Notes
Graphics Card
🔧 Yes (with conditions)
Must consider PSU, space, compatibility
Power Supply
🔧 Yes (upgrade required)
Needs bigger PSU and probably HP-specific part
Gaming-Ready System
⚠️ Only with both upgrades
Old PSU alone is insufficient
🛠 What to Do Next
Open your PC and confirm motherboard model + PSU part number.
Measure internal space for a GPU card.
Find HP-compatible PSU upgrades (400–500 W) that physically and electrically fit your M02-0075t.
Choose a GPU that fits the available PSU (e.g., RTX 4060 Ti, RX 6600 series, etc.).
Check connectors — ensure the PSU has the right PCIe power leads.
If you want, tell me exactly what games and settings you want to play, and I can recommend a specific GPU and PSU combo that’s realistic for this system....

Looks like you are limited to what you can do with that box...

You should call support. The box is usually required for returning a computer. However not all policies are the same. Chances are you’re right, but worth a call.

I’m running a 750 watt power supply for a nvidia rtx 3060 ti. If that gives you an idea to start with.

When sending items under warranty, they don't require the box although it is the acceptable package. If the original box isn't available, they have instructions about packaging. And I've always got very good service from HP support, they seem to be quite understanding and flexible.

But we're on different sides of the pond, so over there things may be very different.

Yes call hp...

They should be able to tell you your upgrade options on that box if they won't except a return straight up..

Good luck Morph!
