I wouldn't go any higher than a GTX1060/RX580 GPU. Otherwise you will have a bottleneck in certain CPU demanding games.

If your gaming at 1080P I'd snag the RX 580 as it can usually be had for less then the price of the 1060 6gb but that memory upgrade should have a significant performance increase as well.

Thank you, sounds like a good idea

Same here; the GTX 1060 6GB or RX 580/590 8GB. Right now, the RX 580 is probably the best value since their prices have fallen thru the floor (compared to the bad ol' Etherium days).

Agreed on the RAM upgrade and going for the RX580 vs the GTX 1060. However, on rare occasion, you do find a 1060 model priced at or near the RX580.

Current prices according to PCPartPicker in the UK. RX580 8GB and GTX 1060 6GB models only, sorted by price.

I have a Ryzen 3 2200g, could I pair it with a
msi gt 1030 2gb? (EC:1430 mhz,memory 64 bit,2.1ghz)

Shouldn't be a problem.

Yes. But probably doesn't worth it over what you already have from the 2200G IGP. I would suggest to spend a bit more and get at least a GTX1050/RX560 GPU which both offer much better performance for not much more money.

What power supply, and are you willing to replace it? If it's the stock HP power supply that came with the unit, please take a picture of the label on the side of the unit and post it here (or just tell us how many amps are listed for the 12V rail).

Putting aside power supply for a moment, an RX 570 is a pretty great bang for buck option. They can be had for as low as $130 right now.
