I'm needing some help here. I just bought an acer with really good specs with everything EXCEPT the graphics card. I was wondering if anyone here would know a good gaming replacement graphics card for the Intel HD one that comes pre-installed. This is the PC I bought:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Acer-ATC-605-UR1B-Intel-Quad-Core-i7-4790-16GB-2TB-DVDRW-802-11n-WiFi-Desktop-/121864403398?hash=item1c5faf39c6:g:4ugAAOSwa-dWloY2

It seemed like a good deal, but that graphics card is just meh. I'm only asking advice here because I have no idea of what would be compatible with that PC, and I would like to do some good gaming on this thing when it gets here. Thank's!

I'm going to say around $100 or lower. If it's slightly higher, I'd go with that to. I'm honestly just concerned if I can even get anything really good for gaming with the 300w wattage I THINK this PC does.

If the PC can't handle the card, what should I do? I've never really built a pc o anything so I'm concerned with what I would need to do in order to get a decent card in my machine.

You should upgrade your power supply. Something like a 550w PSU will be more than enough for you.

As long as any of those would fit in my PC, I think that's what I'll do. Does anyone know my PC type enough to know what will and will not fit in the pc?

Yeah that PSU and the Graphics card will fit in the case.
