The gpu should run games medium no probs on most games, the 4gb won't bottleneck your system, but it's advised to get 8gb if you can, the cpu, is... meh

but isn't this like a super good graphics card already?

damm

which one would you recommend that can go with my current configuration?

or what should i get along with a better graphics card? i know that sometimes i need higher psu walts to supply a good graphics card

EDIT: btw i didn't understand what did you mean by no mods? ( i haven't played yet)

your graphics card isn't high end, more like mid range , depends on how much you're willing to spend on a graphics card really, I can recommend you some once you tell me the budget you have for a card

i'm willing to put another 50 dollars into graphics card.

the price for radeon r9 270x seems to be around 250, so 300 is my budget for graphics card.

btw i edited my last message, which was, what did you mean by no mods in the previous post? i haven't played yet

I would assume that like gta IV, there will be tons of mods that you can get for gta 5 once it's on pc, so you need more ram on your graphics card to handle the mods you might download for the game, I'd recommend a r9 280x then, it's probably 30-50% better than the card you selected and comes eith 3gb of vram too so you can download lots of mods for gta 5 and still have smooth fps :)  just make sure it's a aftermarket r9 280x
