You should be able to unless your case won't let you in or your MOBO doesn't support pci-e (which seems ludicrous).

Just for like lol and wow

Best option is to check if your case will open and check what kind of slots the Motherboard has?

You are running the Integrated graphics for your PC, which in my mind means 1 thing.

1; There should be free PCIe slots on your motherboard.

Other than that, I don't know.

Maybe you can but there would be no stellar improvements...
That PC is a nice OFFICE computer , with super low power draw , and small form factor.
Even if you find a half width graphics card like a special hd6670 , it's not really worth it cause you have a low end cpu , and maybe a low wattage power supply .....
So i don't recomment it.

yeah was gonna get a cpu upgrade too

don't think you can upgrade that cpu, I believe the j1900 is soldered?

Update. The BGA microprocessors like j1900 etc, cannot be updated as the cpu is physically soldered to the motherboard.

Best option, sell before trying to upgrade gpu.

If so..
You might want to think about doing a budget build and try to salvage some parts from your existing PC.

Hey do you know any games that i could play on my pc

 

[Karadjgne]

You should be good with most older games, like stuff pre-06, your integrated graphics may be more advanced, but is not near as powerful as some of the dedicated gpus back then.

LOL should be fine if you crank the settings down a bit. They recently made some optimization for lower end PCs.
