Hi,

 

The HP Prodesk 400 g3 sff does have an option for the NVIDIA GT 730.  The HP OEM certified NVIDIA GT 730 would be significantly faster than the on board integrated graphics processor.

 

The HP Prodesk 400 g3 sff only has 180 watt power supply so the selection of graphics card being offered by HP that are certified to work are extremely limited.

 

I suggest that you try some of the online game simulators and try different options such as a better processor and the NVIDIA GT 730 and see if the results meets your expectations.  You may not be a gaming person but the gaming simulators will provide good feedback on possible hardware changes.  Generally the gaming simulators are free to use.

 

 

BTW--- Your PC would require a low wattage, single width, low profile graphics card.
