So I have a question on upgrading the Hardware for my prebuild PC (I will never buy a prebuild one again x.x).
So the current PC I have is the following: http://support.hp.com/gb-en/product/HP-Pavilion-500-Desktop-PC-series/6879020/model/7265699/document/c04430196/
Since I want to play Witcher 3, I want to upgrade it using a 400-600Watt PSU and as a graphics Card a Nvidia Geforce GTX 960.
Now I already have 2 answers one from the US HP Chat, another one from the HP Support Forum, that changing my graphics card would work. However, in the german Chat I was told, changing the Hardware might cause trouble with the HP Firmware BIOS.
Also I am not 100% certain if Standard PSUs would work for my PC.
If you could help me to find out if I could just simply exchange PSU and Graphics card or if I should rather change back to my old PC (where I would also need to change CPU, main board and cooler), I would be very grateful.
PS: I'm using Windows 7 (64bit) instead of the Windows 8 that came with it, because my internet programme from back then wouldnt work with Win 8. If that matters.
