Hi there, thanks for contacting HP Global Social Media Support!
I understand that you need to know about upgrading the video card of your computer.

The graphics card on your computer is already a most capable, high-end gaming graphics card. Good enough to play virtually any game at 1440p at Ultra Graphics settings. Use the HP Parts surfer to identify the part if you still need to upgrade the video card: http://partsurfer.hp.com/search.aspx

Hi Chris, thanks for contacting HP Global Social Media Support!
I understand that you need to know whether GeForce RTX 3080 fit in HP OMEN 880 Gaming PC
I will do my best to assist you.
You need to specify the exact model of HP 880 ! The card must be able to fit (length). Some of those RTX 3080 can be 11 inches long. Can you get an 4.3" x 11.5" piece of heavy cardboard to fit ? How long is your GTX 1070 ? What are you wanting to play ?

+M45T3R A 2070 RTX should be fine, but you need to make sure of two things.
1. That is is enough room to fit the size of the card to the area of the mini case if you have two expansion slots on the back of the case available.
2. You need at least a 500w Power Supply with an 8 pin connector. If your psu does not have an 8 pin, you will have to replace it with

HP Support ok, thank you a lot

+TheUnknown Gamer A 2060 RTX should be fine, but you need to make sure of two things.
1. That is is enough room to fit the size of the card to the area of the mini case if you have two expansion slots on the back of the case available.
2. You need at least a 500w Power Supply with an 8 pin connector. If your psu does not have an 8 pin, you will have to replace it with another ATX PSU. Yours came with a 500w psu, but I dont know if it has the connector. You will have to look it.
Is that what you needed to know?

@@HPSupport Well I looked at a gtx 1070 (which is what I currently have) has an 8 pin connector am I correct?

Just saying do certain cards only have fewer connectors?

did it work, i need to replace my 1080 with a better graficscard

+JB JFX It should be compatible with this unit.

@@HPSupport would the power supply need to be upgraded for such a power-hungry card?

did it work?

i want to uprgade my pc from a 1080 to more

+spoder155 I do believe that it would work but you may need to change your cooling system to a stronger one which is not usually that $$

@@HPSupport OK thank you very much

+ilse padilla You should be able to swap in a 1070 or 1080. You have a 500 watt power supply. You should verify you have two supplemental six/eight pin PCIe connectors (my guess is yes since you now have a 1060). Verify the new card will fit. The 1060, 1070, and 1080 cards have similar dimensions. You will have to prep the system by doing the following before you install the new card: 1. Enter the BIOS. Disable Secure Boot. Then enable Legacy Boot. Exit the BIOS and save changes. Enter the on screen four digit code to confirm this change. 2. Uninstall the current graphics driver. You can now install the new graphics card.
