Hey everyone, I'm looking for some advice here. If you could lend a hand, I’d really appreciate it.... So, I picked up a new rig a few months back, and here's what I'm running:

I have this nephew who's been over at my place constantly lately because he claims my setup is way better for gaming.... He's got this machine at his house:

It’s about four years old now. He mentioned that if he had bought the same graphics card I have and popped it into his build... or maybe even just buying this specific card right now...
I couldn't really give him any solid advice because I don't know the ins and outs of this stuff... especially regarding that card from $100... Honestly, I suspect his PC wouldn't be able to handle a card like that given his other components. The main question is: what's the best way for him to beef up his rig? Gaming is his absolute priority. Is just upgrading the GPU enough, or is there more to it? He’s got a pretty big screen at home—basically a TV set at 1920x1080 resolution. What would be the smartest move in his situation? Any advice is welcome... thanks in advance.
