Graphics card i am not really sure.
I think its 750 or 650.
It kas 280w power supply.

You will definitely need a new psu, I don't know how 280w could power any gpu. But a gtx 1050 ti would work good for it. It will fit in just about anything.

At first i thought the same, but after searching on internet for hours i found that a lot of people had the same problem. They said that gtx 1050ti is really energy efficent and that it ran fine with the 280w on similar pc to mine.

For example i found a youtube video where someone used a lenovo ideacenter 700 (similar to mine) and it has 280w power supply, he changed gtx 750 to 1050ti.

I will get my 1050ti on friday and if it doesn't run then i will buy 400w power supply. Can you give me any advise wich one to buy and i heard that
I also need some special adapter for the power supply. Any advise is welcome.
