Main thing is do you have a PSU with enough power for the video card you want to add.

Usually the stock HP is only 300watt and you need at least twice that much.....or more.

Just checked my pc, its 600watts. I also found pc's specs.

600 watts will work.

Next thing is that your PSU needs a place to plug in the cord from the 750Ti

Usually I use double ended female cables that come with the PSU or the video card that you use.

Some like my 660Ti take TWO cables to connect it to the PSU

So your PSU either must have the 2 jacks to plug into or two cables with the proper cables.

Usually two 6-plug cables

But I am pretty sure your 750Ti is a single power cable with the 6 core plug
