my games are always lagging

[coal_mines]

when i play astroneers, it keeps on lagging even though the requirements of the computer are fulfilled. this happened to trove too

thank you
but how do i get it on my computer?

You would have to buy it, discrete graphics cards are physical components.

RX 570 would be enough, but RX 580 is a bit better. For best results for the price at 1080p 60Hz, 1660 Super.

Before you go ahead and buy the GPU though, you should measure the clearance you have (if using a small/prebuild case.)
Tell us what PSU you have (or upload a picture of the sticker of it.)
And, look on used markets to see if you can grab one pretty cheap (after you've done the above)

You're also going to want more RAM, as 8GB is barely enough for gaming in 2020. Any game that uses 8GB+ RAM will be an issue.

so i have to open my computer?

Yeah, your power supply (looks like a box with a sticker on it) will say how many watts it can output, like 300W, 400W, etc.
Your power supply will need 6 pin and/or 8 pin PCI-e power cables (8 usually comes as 6+2) to power anything more than a GTX 1650, which runs off of the motherboard PCI-e slot power

You also need to measure how much room there is in the case for the GPU, as if there's something preventing you from putting the card in, that's obviously a problem.

Yes, you do, but you should be fine. It's quite safe and easy.

It's as simple as;
1) Unplug everything from the computer.
2) Move the computer to an easier to work position / location.
3) Hold the power button for 10 seconds (to drain power from anywhere it could be stored.)
4) Take the side panel off, it should have 2 screws holding it in place at the back of the case.
5) Look inside for the longest slot, below the big block of metal with a fan on it.
6) Make sure the slot is clear of dust or whatever, and make sure the cards metal pads are clear of dirt too (don't touch them though, since oil from your skin could cause issues in the slot.)
7) Place the metal bracket on the card to the back side of the case, and gently push the card into the slot (making sure it lines up first, may take a little bit of wiggling and moving, but it should slot in very easy.)
8) Plug the power cables it requires into it.
9) Put the side panel back on.
10) Plug it all back in, this time making sure the cable that plugs into your monitor is plugged into the card you added.
11) Once it's all plugged back in, turn the computer on, and see if you get any display on the screen.
12) Go to AMD, or Nvidia's (depending on who makes your card) and download the driver for your model of card.
13) Start a game up and see if it works.

If you done it all correctly, then it should work fine.
If not, all it is as simple as taking that card out, and plugging the monitor cable back into the old place.

Yes. I'm sure there's a youtube video demonstrating it.

[coal_mines]

just saying, the lag/low fps happend to every game i play on steam, like unturn, and many other games

[coal_mines]

but ok

[Red™]

because you have a crappy and low end pc.

[SaNz.]

Also when choosing a GPU try not to get one thats high end, because it could bottleneck.

Bottleneck means, having an up-to-date GPU and a really old CPU. This makes your GPU not use 100% which means less FPS. In your case I'd aim for a "GTX 1650 Super" or maybe even a 1660.

Good Luck! :)

That's one way to look at it. Another way might be to get the best GPU you can afford. You'll get the best performance your system can manage (better hardware will always perform better anyway). And if you build a new system at any point in near future you've already got a decent GPU for it that you can migrate over. And that would actually be cheaper than buying a crummy GPU to avoid "bottlenecks" and then a good GPU for the new system.

You don't gain much trying to avoid bottlenecks as a primary goal.

Yeah, that's not how bottleneck works though.
In some games, old pentiums can allow 1080ti's to run at 100%.
Whereas, on the other end of the spectrum, an i9-9900k will bottleneck a 2060/s.

Bottleneck depends on workload, not hardware.

is 9100 cpu & 630 gpu ok?

No. i3 is awful and integrated graphics is not even nearly enough to game.
