Change your PSU for a 550w PSU

and buy a GTX 460

The 300w psu is good for a HD 7750 but is not enough for a gtx 460.

I agree with the others; moar power, moar gpus.

Its a good PC.. you only need to change your graphic card. Because most of the games can't be supported with full graphics by this Intel graphic card.

The i3 2100 is stronger than you think. Everything depends on your budget to make this a gaming pc. What monitor and resolution are you planning to play on?evildead6789

a LED monitor

up to 1600X900

if you say i believe you

but how can you tell ?

the 7750 uses the least power of all gpus that are worthwhile.

EDIT: and the difference between a bleh grandma desktop computer and a gaming computer is a graphics card.

What you need to ask when you are trying to create a gaming computer:

Does it have enough ram?

Is the CPU strong enough?

Is the GPU strong enough?

and your ram is fine

your CPU is fine

but your GPU is not

so there you go.

New GPU and PSU.

However nobody here has thought to ask you about your case. How big is it?

It might not be able to fit a decent gpu if it's one of those 'slim' ones.
