I am looking for GPU as currently I have not got one, I have an apu, the A6 3670, I've been using this for a while and I now want to play some of the more recent games that have come out, I don't have much money so I can't go all out in upping my mobo n cpu.

I'm mostly wondering if the 750 ti would be a decent match for the a6 3670, I know there may be some slight bottle neck issues but the fps would surely be greater in newer games then what I have now.

Please let me know what you think I should do regarding the GPU.

Yes, the GTX 750 Ti would be doable with that rather weak APU. I just put a GTX 750 Ti in a PC with a lowly Athlon II X2 270 (3.4 GHz) and most games I tested allowed the GPU to get up near 100% usage. Some didn't, of course. But you will still see a great improvement. Your APU is faster than the old Athlon II X2 I used.

Solution
What's your PSU ? Do you have a 6-pin PCIe power connector?

You may likely get better performance (at the same price point) with a different video card. Example: The R9 270 (maybe $20-$30 more).

Your system power consumption may zoom to 350w (!) but your FPS will jump 30%+ over the 750ti.
