Hey guys I'm trying to upgrade my pc. This are the components I have:

GeForce GT 620
Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-3240T CPU @ 2.90GHz
RAM : 4.1 GB
And my Motherboard is: ASUSTeK K5130
and Windows 8.1

I want to be able to run games like H1Z1 and Battlefield 4 at 1080p (technically 900p because my monitor is kinda old...) and 60+fps in high settings. Remember I want to upgrade my pc not build a new one. My budget is 300/400 $

The power supply is the big square box at the back of your case then the power lead plugs in to:

Your k5130 desktop comes with a 250w power supply, this is not enough to support a gaming graphics card.

I'm sorry but what do you mean by "power supply"? I don't know much about PCs...
But thanks!

My PC says it has 4.00 GB of RAM, but http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri says it's 41GB. Thank you so much!!! Oh and the Video card is the 280x or just 280?
