HP Pavilion 500-046, what graphics card will fit and run?

[jpierce1994]

Hi, i'm a new PC gamer and I bought this PC to run better than my laptop. It does with the 3D games but it still runs choppy and I believe upgrading the graphics card will help me out. I asked people and reddit and they suggested the GTX 1050/1050ti/1060 but after further research it seems like I would have to upgrade my PCs power outage to run those cards well enough and I don't really want to spend a lot of money, I already bought this computer lol. So, until I have enough saved to build my own PC, I want to purchase a graphics card that will run the newest games on mid to mid-high settings (I want to play Destiny 2 when it comes out lol) without frying my PC. I also want a card that I can easily install and start playing with, I'm already paranoid about going into my PC in the first place. Please help me out!

Specs:
Model: HP Pavilion 500-046
Processor: AMD A10-5700 (3.4 Ghz)
RAM: 8 GB
Motherboard: MS-7778 (JasmineR)
Wattage: 300W (100V-240V)
Graphics Card: AMD Radeon HD 7660D

gtx 1050 ti, its max your current setup can handle


make sure it is a version that DOES NOT require a 6-pin pcie cable from the power supply
