Is this a brand name PC like a Dell/HP/Acer/Sony? If it is we will need the exact model number to see if it is using on-board video and has an expansion slot for an add-on video card. Would need to know the PSU watts also, so that if adding a video card, the PSU can handle it.
If a custom or home built, will need the full specs of the unit: brand/model number of each part/ size of PSU.
