So on Black Friday of 2013, I decided to buy a Inspiron 660 to replace my 7 year old or so Windows XP.

I'm wondering if it would be possible to upgrade my power supply to a CORSAIR CX430 (currently have 300W) and then from there, upgrade to a better graphics card (preferably around the $100 range) to handle more recent and demanding games?

Here are all the specs for the Inspiron 660: http://reviews.cnet.com/desktops/dell-inspiron-660-core/4507-3118_7-35562652.html

Edit: Would it be better to simply just buy a better graphics card compatible with the 300W power supply to replace the Intel Integrated Graphics? If so, any suggestions on the graphics cards I should get?

Upgrade that dreadful PSU. 300 watts? Who woulda knew... anyway, GPUs take alot of power, and anything that will work with that 300Watt hunk of metal probably wont be much.
