My Acer AX3400G-U4802

I was wondering if there were any video card upgrades and possibly PSUs that I could install to help out with gaming. I fully that this computer isn't meant for gaming, but I have been able to games like World of Warcraft and League of Legends on low to medium graphics, without input lag. Was just hoping to find somewhat of an upgrade from the integrated graphics to somewhat perform a steady medium to high performance (or basically customized between the two). Thank you for your input.

Depends, check if your mother supports PCIe and the wattage of your PSU.

It does support PCIe x16, but the PSU is only 220 watt. If I am having to upgrade the PSU, is there one that would fit the case? It's a thin/mini type.

I'll google a bit and let you know, have never used a mini atx cabinet, but I think you'd be better off upgrading the cabinet too as GPU heat up easily.

well just checked, any GPU should fit in a mini atx cabinet, just make sure that the PSU is atleast 450W, and that PC doesn't overheat.

So, looking through newegg, I was wondering if this would be best to do.

Tower -- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811353020&ignorebbr=1 (to support the PSU)
Video Card -- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102933
Power Supply -- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817152049

Think this would be good? Pretty much using my Motherboard, chip set, ram and HDD, just upgrading the other bits.

the cabinet supports 2 fans so I suppose it should be decent enough as for the PSU and GPU, never heard of the manufacture so I wouldn't know if it is any good, I would recommend something made by corsair or coolermaster. As for the GPU, 6 series cards have aged a bit, get a 7 series card if you can, couldn't recommend a card without knowing your budget.
