Hi I'm planning on upgrading the video on this desktop from its integrated graphics to a GTX 1050ti, but I'm worrying that the 300W power supply won't be enough or if there is room for the new GPU In the case. Also, will there be any issue with BIOS when upgrading, since I read the article about Safe Boot vs Legacy Boot and would like to know if I need to that as well. Any advice is welcome, thank you.

Hi,

 

It will fit and 300W should be just enough

But you need to check BIOS, you need latest BIOS from the following link

Okay I will install the latest BIOS tomorrow, and after it shouldn't be a problem when installing the new video card correct? Or do I still have to do the legacy mode startup think I mentioned earlier?
