Hello, I want to know if I can upgrade my graphics card, which is now a Nvidia 9500 GT, to a better gaming card? My motherboard is a MSI 785GM-E65 with a AMD Athlon II x4 630 processor. Cannot find anything on MSI. It looks like their link is broke.

The MoBo is good to support any GPU. Your CPU will be a bottleneck. GTX 750 Ti would be the best I'd go with. What PSU do you have?

Thank you, MeteorsRaining. I am not real technical so I am guessing you mean the Power Supply. I only have a 350W at this time. Looking to upgrade that to at least 550W soon. This computer was originally set up for my photography, since I was not gaming at the time.

350W would do for 750 Ti unless its extremely low quality, how much Amperes does it give on 12V line? Look out for PSU in your case (either top or bottom) and check out the sticker with info about Amps on different lines like 12V, etc. Then check the max output (written somewhere around that) and mention that. I'm pretty sure the PSU would contain it, the card only uses 60W.
