how much do you have to spend?

your power supply needs an upgrade if your going to get a new graphics card. at least the xfx 550w.

i would get at least a cooler master hyper 212 evo. if you have the case space, a noctua or phanteks would be ideal to get your closer to 5.0ghz on your fx 8 core and mitigate some potential cpu bottlenecks in some games.

otherise throw an r9-290 in there, you can find them for pretty good prices.

Thanks, i was thinking about adding a new graphics card in the soon future. I would really like a hyper 212 evo but, sadly there isn't enough space between my motherboard and case for the back plate.
