Hello. So I have a few questions and have a link to my computers specs and what not. I try to play Overwatch on this computer and I assumed it would run pretty nicely, however in order to get decent FPS at all I have to play on super low graphics. I wanted to know what a good upgrade would be for my PC, preferably something where I don't have to get a new motherboard or anything like that. Thank you!

SPECS: http://m.newegg.com/Product/Details?itemnumber=N82E16883221279

Also my budget is probably about $150 but would like some cheaper options too

Okay, My suggestions are Radeon R7 360 and Geforce GTX 750 Ti for 100$ range. But if you can afford go with GTX 950.

For R7 360: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007709%20600007782%20600286741%20600007797%20600374090%20601107974&IsNodeId=1&LeftPriceRange=75%20125&bop=And&Order=PRICED&PageSize=60

For GTX 750 Ti: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007709%20600007782%20600286741%20600007797%20600374090%20600451269&IsNodeId=1&LeftPriceRange=75%20125&bop=And&Order=PRICED&PageSize=60

My personal selection would be GTX 950. But be careful about power requirement of those GPUs. They are all different, so in this case you also need enough powered psu. Your current GPU needs 30 watt, but the video cards that i suggest need at least 2 times more power than R7 240.

I can't seem to find anything on my PC that shows my power supply wattage. I have Windows 8 and can't find anything about it. Would I just have to open my computer and check it?
