Is there an HP application installed that will tell you the product number, like HP System Information? Also if you find the serial number you might be able to get a PDF of the manual from HP's support website. Where did you find the Expansion Slots specs?
The interesting thing is the PCIe 4.0 x16 expansion slot. That is what might have a chance at working. But it has to exist, it has to have physical room for a graphics card, and there has to be enough power. Some similar HP all-in-ones I looked up have a 90W power supply and some 65W. Either way it's a very small amount of power for a graphics card to share. Nothing I've seen has hinted at expansion slots.

The expansion slot specs I got by looking up the motherboard 89E8/Expansion Slots on HP website. (
https://support.hp.com/my-en/document/c08204228)
I wouldn't know how to tell whether they are virtual slots or physical.

Unfortunately, for me, it says 65W Smart AC Power Adapter in product description.

Finally, I read this on PCQuest.com website but I only understand a word here or there. LOL
In case your AIO comes with a fixed GPU, then you can buy an external one. This helps AIO PCs achieve better-quality graphics by connecting an external hardware dock. As the name suggests, it can easily be connected to your laptop or AIO using a Thunderbolt port. The eGPU comes with different configurations, so while buying one, you need to check the compatibility with your AIO.
The compatibility depends on the following key factors:
PSU max power: The eGPU would require a lot of power to accelerate the graphics. The power requirement can run anywhere from less than 100W up to 650W.
Compatibility: Ensure connection compatibility of your AIO with eGPU. The port eGPU should be compatible with your PC’s port for connection. It is important to make sure you will get the best graphics.
GPU compatibility: Some eGPU docks come included with graphics card while some with GPU, giving you the flexibility to choose depending upon your requirements.
