Hello /g/entlemen
I recently got hold of a HP 406 G1 Microtower PC (pic related)
Since it comes with Intel Core i7 4770K processor with Intel HD Graphics 4600, I obviously wanna harness the full power of my CPU
So I finally decided on a GTX 1050 ti

Now, the problem is I'm not supposed to replace anything inside it due to reasons but I can put in more RAM/video card
So I'm stuck with the stock PSU which has the following specifications:

So will this satisfy the GPU's power requirements and be compatible? Will my PC be able to run the card without any hiccups? Or is getting a PSU upgrade a must?

It should be all right since it's only a 75w card.

No it should work, it's a 75w tdp card, and nvidias minimum PSU recomendation is 300w.
Next time use the right thread. >>>/g/pcbg/

Why cant you replace the PSU?

Well it's more like I'm forbidden to do so by my dad
He thinks doing so will void its warranty
Also, I don't have the budget for high end cards and I think 1050ti will be sufficient enough for me
since it will be compatible with the stock PSU, why change it?

HP's warranty typically only lasts for a year anyway.
