My specs are in my profile, but I will list them here anyways.
GPU- GeForce GT 630
CPU-Intel Core i7-3770 CPU 3.40GHz
Memory-12 GB RAM
OS-Windows 8.1
I want to install another graphics card into my PC.
If you need anymore information feel free to tell me.

I did some hard looking and found out that machine has a pretty nice psu. A 500 watt 80+ gold unit (thats all I could find). Depending on how much you want to spend, I would get a gtx 960 or 970. It will be a huge performance upgrade over that old gt 630.

I've tried to take the back off but the screws are sealed with gods wrath.
Is there anything to loosen them up?
Is there some way to check from inside my pc's software.

That is a really nice pc (apart from the graphics card). A nice graphics card will easily turn it into a high end gaming machine. Again, we cant really recommend you a graphics card without knowing your psu specs. I am pretty sure you meant acer predator, not asus. Can you give us your pc model?

I will probably get the GTX 960.
I have a question will I have to take out the old one and put in the new or will they stack up so it can be a more powerful PC?

The gtx 960 is a great card that will go well with your system. You will be able to max out 95% of games out there.

You will have to remove your old gpu to install the gtx 960. Make sure you install the latest drivers from nvidias website.
