So I decided to finally get a gpu to improve some fps when playing games. I happened to stumble upon a used R7 250 for $80, and since I was really on budget and only had $90, it was a steal. But the issue is (or I think there will be a issue) I'm not sure if the gpu will fit in the case, and also i don't know how much wattage my psu even has. Any answer to the first problem will be appreciated :).

So a little update, my psu has 255 wattage, and it has 18 amp. Im close to just deciding to buy the r7 250, but I noticed that my psu does not have a pcie power connector, so I don't know what I'll do about that.
 
Those computers come in different form factors. if you have a slim case there might be a problem, whereas if you have the larger case there should be no problem. Open the case and look at the power supply, it'll have a label on it. It should have something like "250W" or "300W" on there somewhere. That'll tell you how much power you might have.

yeah ik, thats why I wrote that the computer was the desktop size. And to me opening up to see how much power it has, I am gonna do that, but I just need an answer to if the R7 250 will fit in it. But thanks for replying and taking your time to do so.
