For that you have to take a gander at the case.
But the 4GB is too likely to have the memory in a single channel mode. These APU models only shine in dual channel mode.
As you didn't list the PSU or the machine full make and model, the PSU is suspected to be too low for such a powerful GPU.
Also it's on a 32 bit OS. Again folk, there is no "upgrade" to/from 32 to 64 bit OSes. It's a fresh install.
I can't guess why they didn't take the 64 bit on the get go. Odd choice today.
-> As it stands I would not upgrade this with a 32 bit OS. You'll not get the benefits.

Hello everyone
Some time ago i got the PC from a friend who did not use it anymore. The specs are:
Motherboard: Gigabyte Technology Co Ltd. GA-A75-D3H. FM1 socket
Processor: AMD A8-3850 quad 2.9ghz, integrated graphics
RAM: 4GB DDR3
HDD: Hitatchi HD5721050CLA362 ATA drive 500GB
Operation system: Windows 7 32bit
I would like to use this computer for gaming but it is quite outdated for contemporary standards. How does a GPU GeForce GTX 970 fit into the system, if at all. Would it boost the performance of the system to be able to play games released in 2014 and 2015. Any bottlenecks or integration problems to be expected. I do not have any experience in tweaking computers so i would like to know in advance if the computer can easily be upgraded without extended knowledge by just buying some parts and attaching those. Motherboard is old and a processor upgrade is not an option. How would upgrading RAM to 8GB or 16GB affect gaming performance? Would SSD drive helb boosting performance?
