HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop (TG01-0xxx) - Needs Graphics Card Replacement - Trades Welcome

HP

Up for sale is my HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop, a solid foundation for a gaming or productivity machine that requires a new graphics card. The PC experienced an electrical spark near the graphics card area (please note: the HDMI cable was NOT connected to the PC when the spark occurred), which has resulted in the dedicated graphics card becoming damaged. When connected to a monitor, the display shows significant digital artifacts and visual corruption (see included photo for an example of the display output). The good news is that the PC otherwise powers on, boots into Windows 11, and all other core components appear to be fully functional. This makes it an ideal project for someone with PC building experience, a tech enthusiast, or anyone looking to get a powerful CPU, fast storage, and a genuine Windows 11 license at a significantly reduced price. Just add a working graphics card, and you'll have a fully capable system Exact Specifications: * Model: HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop TG01-0xxx * CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3500 (6 Cores, 6 Threads, 3.6 GHz Base / 4.1 GHz Max Boost) - A strong CPU, perfect for gaming and multitasking. * RAM: 8GB DDR4-2667MHz (1x8GB Kingston module) * Storage: 256GB Samsung NVMe SSD (MZVLBE256BHJQ) - Blazing fast boot times and application loading. * Graphics Card (CURRENTLY DAMAGED): NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER - This is the component that needs replacement. * Operating System: Windows 11 Home (Activated) * Motherboard: HP OEM (supports onboard display output for basic use/diagnosis without the dedicated GPU) * Case: Original HP Pavilion Gaming chassis (Black with green accents) * PSU: Original HP Power Supply Unit (appears to be functioning) What You'll Need: * A new or working dedicated graphics card. The system originally came with a GTX 1650 SUPER, so a similar card (e.g., GTX 1660 Super, RTX 3050, or AMD RX 6600) would be a good fit, depending on your performance goals and the PSU's capability. * (Optional but recommended) An additional 8GB RAM stick for 16GB total in dual channel for optimal gaming performance. Why this PC is a great deal: * You're getting a powerful Ryzen 5 CPU, a super-fast NVMe SSD, and Windows 11. * It's a straightforward fix for anyone who can install a graphics card. * Significantly cheaper than buying a comparable system fully working.
