Not hugely, the new card may increase your frame rates by a little bit but not by much. The better choice would be to look for a new second hand system instead0

You may want to wipe out the product key!
In theory yes, but the CPU would limit it quite heavily. You would need something which wouldnt need external PCIe power, the absoulte max you can get through the PCI2 interface is 75watts, so you would be limited by that. You may be able to get something like a 1030 or rx460 low profile.
What CPU / GPU is it running allready?0 -
Um actually no idea where would I find this info?0

If you goto start -> device manager, the GPU is under display adapters, and the CPU is under processors

I wouldnt recomend upgrading the GPU
the CPU is really weak and it will be severly bottlenecked, even with GPU's of the time they only lead to a tiny increase for everything but COD which hardly used the CPU:
