So my brother and I have been trying to get into pc gaming. My computer has been completely built, but while trying to be as budget friendly as possible, I managed to overlook something very important. We bought this hp used from someone else assuming we could put a 1050 in it without a problem. The 1050 came today and after a couple minutes of fiddling and looking around, I found out that the motherboard inside of this computer doesn’t support the graphics card. Under my current knowledge, I fear we may have to just start from scratch. Is there any cheap fix to this? I was looking at this motherboard

Will all of the hardware be compatible with it? And if not...is there any less expensive way to fix this problem other than starting from scratch?
If that won’t work, should I just return the graphics card and put a 680 in it?
