Hey, I have an Acer TC-105, The GPU in it is absolute garbage for gaming! (Nvidia GT620)

I am about to purchase a Asus R7 250 1gb GDDR5 and a Aywun A1-3000 420w PSU.

My questions are, Is the PSU powerful enough, And could the card be easily installed by myself? I have never done it before, but im sick of having 75 games on steam and only being able to run about 10 since i got this computer!

Any other advice would be great! :)
thanks!

It should work fine. Might be worth googling your case and seeing the PCI slot measurements to make sure it can fit but it should do as it a small care.
The PSU should be alright.
You did not mention what CPU you are looking at?


If you are buying a graphics card, a cpu and a psu you might as well go the rest of the way and build your own custom computer

Alright, card installing is pretty easy, I don't know the specs of your PC (google shows 10 different models) so I can't tell whether PSU will be sufficient, anyway I'd switch to a better known model/brand such as BeQuiet, Corsair or XFX.

I'm sorry that was a typo, I meant PSU not CPU >.< My cpu is fine, its an AMD A-10 6700 quad core.

my current PSU is a 200w standard
