Hi iEvan,

 

First of all, i can be a good choice to change your graphics card, but, the fact is you need to know if your CPU can be enought powerfull/strenght.

Indeed, if your CPU is waiting by your graphics cards, performance will be considerably reduce and same in the other side (gpu waiting by your cpu).

 

So, to answer to your question one, yes, you can change your graphics card, but look to know if compatibility (speed and manufacturers) with your cpu.

 

About the second point, i think you'll have again to see if compatibility is "okay" between cpu and motherboard because if not, you'll need to change the three main components in your computer that are CPU, GPU and Motherboard.

 

[My Questions

--> What is your current motherboard ?

--> What is your current cpu ?

I Dont know my motherboard because it just launches Windows 7 logo and loads the desktop

My CPU is a Intel Duo Core 2 E7400 @ 2.80ghz X2

See i cant spend alot of money at once since im only 13 if i was older id probably upgrade the entire pc itself :L
