So I’ve had this thing for half a decade at this point. It was the first PC I ever got and I’ve been dealing with it being a PC which was cheap and not made for gaming. I’d like to see if there’s any recommendations I can add or upgrade to make it better rather than buying a entirely new PC

Here’s the specs

Acer Aspire TC-875

Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-10400 CPU @ 2.90GHz 2.90 GHz

8.00 GB (7.89 GB usable)

Intel(R) UHD Graphics 630 (128 MB)

477 GB SSD

Id like to cram a GPU in there if possible but I suck at hardware related topics so I’m not sure if could, which one I would, etc

So any recommendations would be helpful thank you!

Adding onto this, it looks like the motherboard has an unusual layout (assuming it's the same as shown in this thread) and that may make fitting some GPUs in physically difficult/impossible. Well, at least without sticking a riser in and turning it into a tentacle monster...

I suggest opening the case up and measuring clearances before getting parts.
