Hi,

 

Yes. and yes.

 

The power supply issue is academic as there, again, is no place to insert a discrete graphics card on the system board.

 

You have zero graphics card upgrade options.

Hi,

 

I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

 

You have a 220 watt power supply.

 

You have no PCIe x16 expansion slots on the motherboard.

soooo, my power supply is not good enough to power any better graphics card at all?

 

And there is no where to place the graphics card on the motherboard?
