I need some help... I am wanting to buy a new graphics card for my computer. I have a Lenovo Ideacentre with a 280 Watt power supply. I need a good card that can run off the 280 wattage. I want to get 60-100 FPS without Optifine.

So, basically, I need to buy a gaming computer to get what I want?
Well, what would you want? You can build a decent one for $500.
I want a computer that can do two things : 1. Run Minecraft and other Steam games at around 60-100 FPS 2. Smoothly run Cinema 4D and AE (For intros)
Several flaws with that. Minecraft isn't a steam game, so it should be "1. Run minecraft and Steam games" and two, there are TENS OF THOUSANDS of steam games. They vary from 2D 8 bit side scrollers to Massively graphic intense games. Be more specific.

What is this computer going to be used for?
List what you will be doing with your computer.
What is your budget?
Include amount and currency.
Where do you live? If in the US, do you have a nearby Microcenter?
Your country lets us know what sites you can order from. If you have a nearby Microcenter they have some great in-store only deals that you can take advantage of.
What is included in the budget?
Things like the tower, the OS, peripherals and monitors.
Will you be overclocking?
Overclocking will require different hardware than a non-overclocking build so we need to know this.
Will you be reusing any parts?
If you are reusing parts list them here.
What OS do you want?
Say which OS you want or say if you already have a copy of one.
Any specific case preferences?
Size, color, etc.
Any other special features that you want in the build?
Stuff like an SSD, large hard drive, RAID, and wifi
Answer these so we have a better idea.

This and you can't upgrade a GPU that is in a all-in-one

I wouldn't buy a gaming computer, I'd build one though. You'll get much more for your money that way.

Non-existent with that power supply. And what's your CPU and how much RAM do you have?
