Zoostorm PC 4gb GT730 and 500W PSU Upgrade

I have bought AFOX 4gb GT730 graphics card and Ace 500w PSU. Will I be able to install these to a Zoostorm Tempest PC Which has windows 10 pro 64bit, amd a10, 8gb ddr3 ram, radeon R7 1gb integrated graphics, 2tb hard drive, gigabit Ethernet.

There is a spare x16 pci express slot.

I can't really tell much from your photo, but if you have an available PCI Express 2.0 slot then the card should be a no brainer. So you should be able to use both. Since you already seem to have everything, why haven't you tried to install them yet?

 

Hi,

I managed to install the 4gb graphics card and 500w psu myself. They installed fine. Thanks.

 

Great, and it gets easier with each turn!

 

Hi, I now want to install a SSD Drive. Apart from the SSD, is there anything else I will need?

 

That depends on if you're looking to install it as your main drive. If that's true then you will either need to clone the current main drive to your SSD (which is preferable) or do a clean install on the SSD drive, and then copy the files you want to keep from the original drive, and to do that you need to make certain you boot from the SSD drive. There are a number of tools you can use to clone drives.

would I need any other hardware?

here are pics of inside the pc:

 

would I need a 2.5" to 3.5" adaptor? sata cable? anything else?

 

Also I have a wifi hardware installed to my motherboard and I don't use the wifi. Can I replace it with a PCI-E SSD? such as the Samsung EVO 860 250gb mSata pci-e?

Or can you see under my graphics card theres a spare port, if a PCI-E SSD would install into it?

 

It's hard to see what's going on in your images but I did see that your board has HDMI and USB support and SATA support preceded one or both of those so you can use the latest drives without concern. I can't tell what size your drive bays are so I don't know if you can mount a 2.5" SSD, but that shouln't stop you from proceeding until you either acquire an adapter or make one yourself (not that hard). all you need to make one is either some plastic you can mount then bend and mount to the drive on both sides. I think I made one for a friend out of large yogurt container. If you're really fussy then order a mount. You can get them in both 3.5" and 5.25" size so just go with the one that's the most convenient or has the most bays.

Here's one that will mount to 5.25 bay.

You can put a hard drive anywhere it will fit within range of a power source and SATA cable connect.
