Looking to upgrade to a new gpu that my system can handle.

Here are my specs:
OS Name Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium x64
System Manufacturer Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
System Model M68MT-S2
System Type x64-based PC
Processor AMD FX(tm)-4100 Quad-Core Processor, 3600 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 4 Logical Processor(s)
Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 8.00 GB
Total Physical Memory 8.00 GB
Available Physical Memory 4.87 GB
Total Virtual Memory 16.0 GB
Available Virtual Memory 11.9 GB

Current card:
Name AMD Radeon HD 6670
Adapter Description AMD Radeon HD 6670
Adapter RAM 1.00 GB (1,073,741,824 bytes)
IResolution 1600 x 900 x 60 hertz

PSU: Arctic 480W

Looking for a decent upgrade, seem to be falling behind on the system requirements anymore.
Was thinking something like:
GIGABYTE Ultra Durable 2 GV-R725O5-2GI Radeon R7 250 2GB 128-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 HDCP Ready Video Card. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...


Looking for something that fits my system without having to upgrade much.

Thanks for any advice

The r7 250 and 6670 are so similar in performance that it would be a total waste of money. If you're looking for something inexpensive that's worth it, the R7 260x is decent.

I agree the R7-260 would be your best bet. Keep in mind though that it requires a PCIe power connection. If you do not have a spare one GTX750ti.
