Hello guys!

I want to upgrade my PC and especially my graphic card!

Currently I got a pretty bad PC and I don't know much about Pcs, so it would be helpful if you guys could tell me what else I should upgrade if it's not too expensive.

Currently I got this:

Intel (R) Core (TM) i7-4770S CPU @ 3.10 GHz

NVIDIA GeForce GT640

The things that are listed on this site aswell: https://www.asus.com/de/Tower-PCs/M51AC/specifications/

If you need more information to my PC tell me! And don't forget to tell me how I look that up because I really don't know much about Pcs.

Thanks for your help!
 
so basically your system looks likes this

Intel i7-4770S CPU @ 3.10 GHz
2GB Dual Channel, DDR3 at 1600MHz
NVIDIA® GeForce GT640 /3GB
Power supply marked 500 W but only 350 W Peak (disturbingly crappy PSU)

and this is were you problem begin, I can understand you wanting to upgrade your video card, but realistically your power supply cannot "allow" you to do this right now. to suggest to you a new PSu you will need to open computer case and look inside are you able to find make/model of power supply, whY? because that will give me dimensions and type of power supply so I can suggest a replacement for it.

second thing you will need to upgrade is MEMORY, you have 2GB unless you have added more since, and that is ridiculously low, I would find 2x4gb DDR3-1600 Mhz memory like : Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (4 x 2GB) DDR3-1600 Memory (€49.00 @ Amazon Deutschland)
Total: €49.00 for example

the consider upgrading video upgrade then
