What can i put into a Trooper-x68 Desktop

[PcFunkyDancer]

Hello everybody i just got a new computer, it has a decent gpu and also a decent cpu but i was just wondering if i could upgrade them, like upgrading them into a gtx 750 and a amd fx 6300 but i was just thinking if my case was big enough.
Case: Trooper-x68 Desktop
Gpu: AMD Radeon HD 8370D
Cpu: AMD A4-6300

Any recommendations of what i can fit into this case like what gpu or cpu would be recommend for this case
I'm also new into the PC world

its a mid tower case so you should be more than ok to fit those parts into the system.

The motherboard will not take a FX6300, it has a different socket. Do you know exactly what your motherboard is? The A55 chipset is more suited for business and home use than gaming. It is a very basic specification product.

That's a fairly limited system. Memory can be increased to 8Gb, your 350W PSU will seriously limit what GPUs can be added and your CPU/APU will limit what games will run fluently. You could upgrade your CPU to a better APU or a discrete CPU/GPU combination, like an Athlon X4 860K and a GTX750ti.

So I cant find what the motherboard is but I took a look inside and its a msi.
But do you really think I can upgrade my cpu and gpu to a Athlon X4 860K and a GTX750ti.
And would it fit in my tower
heres a link to the computer http://www.bestbuy.com/site/cybertronpc-trooper-x68-desktop-amd-a4-series-4gb-memory-1tb-8gb-hybrid-hard-drive-black/4291215.p?id=bb4291215&skuId=4291215

Thanks man but im not sure if I could fit some bigger cpu or gpu in there

 

[FinneousPJ]

Can you still return that system?

 

[DonkeyOatie]

Thanks man but im not sure if I could fit some bigger cpu or gpu in there

The Athlon I mentioned is the CPU part of an A10 7875K which is the top end chip for your socket, and the GTX 750ti is the best GPU available that will run on your 350W PSU without extra power feeds.

So can i fit a gtx 750 ti into my computer


Because i heard people say that the graphics card is important in gaming

 

[DonkeyOatie]

A GTX 750ti will fir and it will run on your PSU.

Wait what's a PSU ?

By the way this computer I bought

Power Supply Unit. The GTX 750ti needs to fit in your computer (it will) and your PSU needs to be powerful enough and have the right cables to power it.

When I put the gtx 750ti into my computer does it have to be compatible with the motherboard
Here are the slots in the computer

1 PCI Express x1, 1 PCI Express x16, 1 PCI

 

[DonkeyOatie]

Yes it does have to be compatible and yes it is. It will go in the PCIe x 16 slot.

 

[PcFunkyDancer]

Yes it does have to be compatible and yes it is. It will go in the PCIe x 16 slot.

so basically I can install the gtx 750ti into my computer all by myself

 

[DonkeyOatie]

Yes. Open case, remove slot covers, plug card into motherboard, screw into case (one or two screws where slot covers were), plug in monitor to card, turn on and run. Ten to fifteen minutes. My Middle School students do it easily.

Thank you so much and thank you for help
also one last question, where do you recommend to buy the gtx 750ti ?

 

[DonkeyOatie]

I'm assuming that you are in the USA.

This http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127784&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-PCPartPicker,%20LLC-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID= is a good card that can be overclocked further and runs on only the power provided by your PCIe motherboard slot, and the cooler is good and quiet.

I do a lot of business with Newegg for my school systems, but if you have good experience elsewhere , that would be good too.

Wait what about this one

[DonkeyOatie]

Yes. EVGA makes four different GTX 750ti's. The two lower power ones, the 3571 which you linked to, and the 3573 which I use in this system, need no additional power. If you want to, you can get a bit more performance out of the card by a simple software overclock.
