Im planning to buy the hp 8200 compq elite desktop:https://www.amazon.com/Compaq-8200-Factor-SP678UP-3-1GHz/dp/B00TRO5Q36
And im planning to upgrade it and add another 4gb of ram and i want to add on it the gtx 1050 ti :http://www.galax.com/en/graphics-card/galax-geforce-gtx-1050-ti-oc.html
And i wanted to ask three question.
1.Will the graphics card fit in that pc?
2.What is the maximum amount of ram this pc can handle?
3.Will this processor bottleneck the gtx 1050 ti?

Dude you have two choices for that system.Now I haven't seen the interior of your case .So open it up and look at the GPU slot if you have a short and wide space buy the gigabyte very cheap but good 115 US www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-Geforce-1050-Graphic-GV-N105TD5-4GD/dp/B01M4KGTNI/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1494283472&sr=8-2-fkmr0&keywords=gigabyte+gtx+1050+ti+single+fan If you have a skinny and longer space buy this https://www.amazon.com/MSI-GTX-1050-TI-4GT/dp/B01N2W8MJ9/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1494283571&sr=1-1&keywords=msi+GTX+1050+TI+4GT+LP its longer but only takes up half the slot width ,but its more expensive and get out your measuring tape ,DON"T use your eyes and look up the cards dimensions before purchase.It...

Nah they are not overclocked 1050 ti's are all virtually the same bar a couple of clocks ,but you would never notice . If you have more room get a twin fan OC version if it fits,I had an Msi one for 2 weeks ,It was really good played all the new titles fine and so will a stock one ,But I sold it in a system.

Well actually im thinking if the GPU didn't fit because the galax one is the only one available in my country, can i get the components out of the hp 8200 and put it in another case that i already have ?
Will that be achievable?
