Ok so let me explain my "problem" a little bit in detail.
I have the possibility to acquire this
https://support.hp.com/gb-en/document/c04722992 to which I would like to add(since I already have it) the video card Sapphire Radeon RX 480 NITRO+ 8GB GDDR5 256 and I was wondering what upgrades to the existing pc system would be required.

Thanks a lot in advance

You will need a new power supply. It looks like the included one is only 180watts. This not only means it wont be enough power, but it wont come with the necessary cables to power your RX480. Pick up a 550W power supply from either EVGA, Seasonic, Corsair, Coolermaster, and install that.
