I mean the motherboard in the computer, if it has a PCIe slot for the graphics card  sorry for unclarity

The CPU-Z app tells me that it's a Lenovo SKYBAY

Alright, as long as you upgrade the psu and go for an rx480 you should have a decent gaming build. I'd suppose your machine would draw around 300 watts under gaming load, so a 450watt is fine.

Do you think a RX 480 would fit into this case?

Can't tell exactly, you can measure the length from the PCIe slot to the side panel and compare that to the height of the card. Do the same for the length.

What about the PCIe slot? Do you know if I can fit a x16 into a x8?

Do you only have 8x slots?

The graphics interface has one x8 PCIe slot that says "Max supported x8". But when I look up my current GPU, that doesn't really look like the one I have, it says it is x16

If a 16x card will physically fit in your motherboard, it will only be limited in bandwith as far as i know. I shall summon the great @deXxterlab97 to assist with this.

Thanks, I'm just not sure since the gpu I look up doesnt resemble the gpu I have installed.

Sounds like some proprietary solution, I'd recommend setting up a separate thread here on the forum for help with that
