I just had a thread running in regards of the PSU that I like to change to handle even 1050i card low profile (Gigabyte or MSI is making those). I just did not knew how to calculate total power draw.

You have to look for TFX power supply and there is a few models that can handle that load.
You have Seasonic (look at newegg) and BeQuite Power 2 TFX 80+ Gold which is my personal pick.

Here is the choices of PSU at Canadian Newegg: https://www.newegg.ca/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&IsNodeId=1&N=100007656%20600014004
US Newegg: https://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&IsNodeId=1&N=100007657%20600014004

Those should fit all but look for higher wattage and 80+ Gold certification.

Hope this helps.

Unfortunately, it is an odd-shaped proprietary design that does not have a retail counterpart. But the specs might be strong enough to handle a GTX 1050 or 1050 Ti low profile card. Post a pic of the nameplate on the PSU.

I don't think it is. While the PSU is more of HP's proprietary monstrosities the motherboard is the deal breaker in this PC. Consider https://images10.newegg.com/UploadFilesForNewegg/itemintelligence/Hewlett-Packard/HP_20Compaq_206005_20Pro_20Desktop_20PC_20Quick_20Specs1452987429237.pdf Go to page 11. Look below SFF. 25W max. power. The 1050 would starve. ]]THe answer unfortunately is no. Dell and HP love to make their PCs THEIR PCs so that any repair can only be done with their products.

Unfortunately, your link isn't working for me.
As to the 25W limitation on the motherboard, I would treat that more as a disclaimer based on the size PSU provided by the manufacturer not the board's slot capacity. I have had bigger cards running just fine on 25W/35W "limitation" boards. Have one now; a GTX 1050 Ti in a tiny Optiplex 790 SFF.
