ahm.
my specs are
600 w psu,
intel core i3 3210 3.2 ghz.
4 GB team elite 1333 ram.
500GB WD
mobo asus P8H61-M LX3 PLUS R2.0
GPU: GT 630 2 gb ddr3.
Monitor AOC 18.5 '' Vga port. 1366x768 resolution

i want to change my video card by my self and im no good in PC . i watch a lot of videos that install their video card and it was just easy,, just open the case, loosen the screw holding the Gpu and snap the Lock to release the GPU in the slot and Pull the GPU, i was wondering if it would be the same thing in my position where i want to change my gt 630 for gtx 750 ti,..

and i was thinking if i should get palit gtx 750 Ti 2 gb Gddr5 which cost 175 dollars and way above my budget but i can still look a way for an additional or should i stick with my budget 125 dollars and go for inno3d GTX 650 2GB Gddr5. is it worthy for an additional 49 dollars for me to get palit gtx 750 Ti 2GB Gddr5?

i love gaming AC4 Blackflag in nice and smooth graphics, also im preparing for upcoming games, like SHADOW of mordor, AC5 untiy, Witcher 3 wild hunt and Next gen Graphics 2k15 PC. (confirmed by ronnie2k).

i do appreciate suggestion but pls dont suggest about looking for other GPU's.
our store here in Philippines zamboanga city only have Palit GTX 750 ti 2GB Gddr5 and inno3d GTX 650 2gb Gddr5. others are slower GPU like GT 210, GT 740, GT 630, Gt 610. we're in a 3rd world country haha xD

tnx

If you stick with a nvidia gpu, you will not need to change drivers.
Your install should be no more than the hardware swap.

A GTX650 will be a reasonable boost. If your graphics card update is not big enough, you can be disappointed if you don't see impressive results.

The GTX750ti is a very strong upgrade and is entirely suitable for your cpu.
Does your store have the non(ti) version , the GTX750?
That should be about in your budget range.

750Ti is the most powerful video card you can get that doesn't require additional power to run. It is a good upgrade from the GT630.

GTX650 is a little older and slower and will require a 6pin PCIe power cable, many include an adapter if your power supply doesn't offer that cable, but it is unwise to run a card off of a power supply that wasn't intended to do so. 600W is likely to have one or two.

Might ask them if they can order you a GTX750 basically 20% slower then the 750Ti but a lot cheaper.

Wow we almost have the same specs. (both before and after)
I feel you the upgrade to GTX 750 ti was worth it.
But it made me buy a new power supply for the 6-pin connector
More coincidentally GTX 750 ti was the only on available in my store (Dasmarinas, Cavite, PH) but asus as the manufacturer.
Sadly as you may or may not know we can't run AC unity, Shadow of Modor on GTX 750 ti because of it's insanely high graphic requirements.
But can run AC4 buttery smooth!!! xD
If you can spare cash go for GTX 680 or GTX 760/770/780 if you wan't to run next gen games
also go for i5 2500k or higher :D (it seems it's the minimum requirement for next games)
lastly don't be to hard on our country xD were technically 2nd world country (developing) hahaha
