can i upgrade to a i7 quad core processor a 780ti evga graphics card in this tower and usb 3.0??

It has a i7 quad core in it already just an older version. As far as the 780ti graphics card, you will have to upgrade your power supply to at least a 600w which isn't hard to do. For usb 3.0, you will have to buy an expansion card.

That would be a "NO" If I read the specs right you are running PC-2700 and that in no way can be upgraded to what you want.

Yes...this computer can be upgraded.Be careful with video card upgrades,the slot is placed in such a way that in may not be possible to install 2 cards.My computer has three fans,one for the interior,one for the power supply and one for the CPU.If additional fans can be installed,I donot know;but there is an open connector plug.I hope this helps you.

Yes, no issue with processor compatibility. Check your motherboard and power supply to ensure they are capable. You need PCI Express and at least 400 Watt power supply.

Not sure, but I couldn't run them at max speed with my 3rd gen I7 anyways cause quad-core doesn't like such high RAM speeds

It looks like yes you can upgrade that PC with this graphics unit. This card is two slots wide and very close to 10" long. So, you need to check that there is enough space inside the case.

Yes. Check Nvidia web site and check system spec. but higher power supply wouldn't hurt if you are planning to upgrade again.

I don't know what type of video card you got with the system. The answer is probably. You'd swap out the existing card or use the open slots on the mother board. You should verify you have the correct slot for the card. Second, I have an i7. It's freaking great!!! But you need fast memory to go along with it. If your system doesn't come with good gaming memory, then upgrade that along with your i7. It will cost about 40 bux to get kick ass memory, Google gaming memory for options.

Yes, but it will be very slow. I would look for a computer with a I7 Quad 1.73 or faster.

Yes, it is a quad core and it's should be able to handle both the CPU and Video Card with no problem.

Yes, This card has SLI. Which means it can be upgraded to a dual graphics card.

Hi there, Looks like you'll be upgrading. First a power supply then a GPU then faster Memory, on & on etc I bet. lol I think I would upgrade the PWR up to 1000w.This will give yourself a lot of safe upgrading capabilities. I run 1100w SLI PWR. This way I can upgrade and not worry about power. The cost isn't all that much difference.

Yes it can. on YouTube there is a channel called tech of tomorrow and They always do 4k benchmarks on msi gtx 780 ti. This card can do 4k ultra but the game demanding games like battlefield 4 and far cry 3 are gonna run around 30 fps. If you are ok with that then yes� it can�

It should be, although I have not tried that specific graphics card in this motherboard. However, if you are buying the card new and not reusing it from another system, I'd recommend getting a PCIe 3.0-compliant graphics card, as the Asus Z87-PLUS supports this faster PCIe standard.

It should definitely improve your graphics experience, but double check that your power supply can handle the new card. Also, is your current graphics handler integrated into the cpu or mobo?

No, you cannot upgrade the processor as far as I know. It is not intended for intensive workload although it is much better than regular desktop PCs even if these have more CPU processing power. The reason being that it is designed as a server. It runs very efficiently 24/7 and is mostly silent. You can add more RAM but it is recommended that you use a server graded module.
