Upgrade help please.

[JimboSE]

Hi All
I am just after some advice please if I may, I have been gifted an old HP Pavillion Slimline S5535 UK desktop, It has an i3 dual core cpu and 4gb of ram.
I am going to upgrade the cpu to an i7 quad core and upgrade the ram to 8gb in the next few days.
Now my big question is I have never had a small pc like this and would like to put in a Graphics Card but I have no clue what it would take being a slimline pc and being a tad old, the only game I really want to run is World of Warcraft and maybe a few others but for big games I have my xbox one.
I know compared to most peoples rigs its probably a joke but I thought as I have been gifted it I may aswell use it.
Thanks in advance and any help is very much appreciated.
Regards
Jim

Try to get the user manual for the PC you have got from the HP Support website.

See if it has space for graphics card.

I would think it should be able to accept a Low profile graphics card but power supply is also a concern. Check what is the PSU wattage.

Maybe a 1050 should fit fine as it doesnt need extra power but check the PSU and space first. Post some pictures as well.
