Overall, it seems like a decent choice (assuming my PSU estimate is correct) https://in.pcpartpicker.com/product/b4Kh...10300a-10l. However, the spec sheet indicates a 180-watt power supply in that system, which is quite high. The GPU alone can handle over 50 watts and the CPU is near 100 watts, leaving minimal headroom for other components. A typical motherboard uses around 40 watts, so this setup might not be ideal for turning into a high-performance gaming rig. Updated October 28, 2020 by Fasauceome

I prefer a mid-range graphics card that works smoothly at least 1080p with 60fps or 90fps. Something capable of handling basic games at low settings, like in AsbydosOne and Fasauceome. Also, if you want to upgrade your power supply and case, I suggest picking the ESTIMATED BUDJET 7000 INR model.

If you could enhance the enclosure, chipset, and power unit it would resemble this PCPartPicker selection. It looks similar to the item listed on PCPartPicker. This upgrade would definitely work with a suitable graphics card. I suggest considering a refurbished case if possible (like an old Dell that’s been discarded), as this hardware model is no longer made. Look for used boards such as H110, H210, B150, or B250. The power supply should be avoided unless you’re certain; buying one second-hand carries more risk.

My Acer desktop tower is quite old—will it still function properly?

Do you recall the model? Some Acer desktops come with standard components, while others are custom-built. You might want to check the interior dimensions to confirm if a regular motherboard will fit. The mounting points match both ATX and micro ATX, though there are fewer screws in the micro ATX version. Looking at your existing board, it seems some slots can also accommodate ATX setups. It might be worth checking whether your current motherboard could fit inside this Acer case. Unfortunately, your system uses a proprietary board without a 24-pin power cable, so you’d likely need to upgrade the power supply.

Thanks for your assistance. I think I won’t alter my case since it would only increase my budget. I’ll go with a GT 1030 or an RX550 and just install it in my setup. Could you tell me which one is better?

You won't be able to accommodate a 550 watt unit alongside the 1030, which supports 1080p at its lowest settings or 720p in medium gaming. It's crucial you understand your power supply capacity. With just 180 watts, adding too many components could overload the PSU and damage parts like the CPU, graphics card, or motherboard. You wouldn't want any of these essentials to fail.

On the official HP site they mention this. Likely they’re considering a setup of around 180 watts?

It mentions nothing about power usage. The GT 730 uses significantly less power compared to the 1030. Additionally, it isn't very suitable for gaming.

I need something for graphics, not a gaming rig. It should run games like VALORANT smoothly at 60-90 FPS. On the HP website, the power supply mentioned is 180 watts.
