HI, I was wondering can I put GTX 1050ti 4GB in hp compaq elite 8300 cmt? And yeah, I have HP 320w PSU. At the moment I have Asus Arez RX 550 2GB.

Processor is I5 3470 3.2 ghz
 
Solution
I have a 180w psu but for the gtx 1050/1050ti you will need a 500w psu. Try to check the Nvidia site for what min psu wattage you need


Hope this helps
Yeah 500w? That's not right. Even Nvidia only recommends a 300w unit.

The model of 1050tis that do not have a 6-pin connector(like the one The Dark Lord posted) use 75w or less and the OC'd versions with a 6-pin connector usually use less than 80w(since they get close or over 75w they used the extra power connector so they don't overload the pci-e power traces).
