So currently I have a prebuilt straight out of the store PC, which I am starting to realize was a bad idea, with:
-Intel Core i5 4440
-NVIDIA GeForce GTX760 1.5GB
-8GB DDR3 ram, not sure of the model
-1TB hdd, again not sure of the model
-Unsure of motherboard

What I want to know is if upgrading this would be worth it or at all possible as it is a prebuilt, or if I should just buy a new one.
If upgrading seems like a good idea, what should I upgrade?
I have been considering upgrading to the 1060, as the processor upgrade would require a new motherboard and a decent motherboard would need DDR4 ram.
I use it mainly for gaming, no encoding or such, so the processor upgrade might not be worth it, atleast yet
Thanks in advance!

With a GTX760, unless it is a Mini, you should be able to accommodate any 10.5" two slot video card with the same rough power, so a GTX1060 would be a great choice.

I would guess Dell, because as far as I know, they are the only people to misrepresent the GTX760, should really be called the GTX755 or something. It is literally 3/4 of a retail GTX760 (which has 2GB or 4GB of memory, and a full complement of SM units)

Okay awesome, thanks, but just to make sure, the one I've had my eyes on is:
https://www.msi.com/Graphics-card/GeForce-GTX-1060-GAMING-X-6G.html#hero-specification
Would that fit?
Edit:
Or do you have a better one to recommend? I'm not on an exact budget, but I can't pour too much into this right now.
