From that website i linked, there is no mention of any PCIe slot, just a slot that looks similar but will not accept a PCIe card. But you can run PCI Quadro cards. Even 2 of NVIDIA Quadro NVS 55 64MB PCI low profile DVI w/TV-Out, but wouldn't be very good for games, but might be better than the on-board GPU.

Even so, the 1050 suggested has a recommended 300 watt PSU, and yours is well below that and I doubt could power it. I don't know if HP offers a upgraded PSU, maybe eBay will have one that might fit, but it's proprietary so you can just buy any PSU on the market and drop it in.
