Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I want to put in a good grapics card in my PC. I know lots of people put LP GTX 1050's in their Compaq Elite 8300's. But there model is the SFF (Slim Form Factor), which seems different and bigger than mine. So im worried now that nothing will fit or work. it also seems like i cant get a new case either as the board seems to be all together. If something can fit in it, would the Power Supply be good enough?

Hi:

 

You have to add a supported MXM graphics card, additional heatsink, and upgrade the external power supply to a 180W one.
