Good morning. I am looking to upgrade my graphics card. My specs are:

HP ENVY h8 (1534) PC Series
AMD FX-6350 six-core processor / 3.9 GHx
HD: 1.5TB Seagate Baracuda
RAM: 10MB total (2x4GB and 1x2GB sticks; one slot open)
Graphics: AMD Radeon HD 7500 Series
PSU: 460W Max

I believe the card is a PCIE but cannot tell to be honest

Any advice would be great. I don't know if going to 16GB of RAM would make a lick of difference if the graphics card remains the same. Thanks!

Hey there. I'm assuming you're looking for gaming performance, so upgrading the RAM would not make a difference in that aspect. 10GB is plenty for gaming. As for the graphics card, do you have a budget?

Thank you for the feedback. I will check when I get home, I can;'t recall which one i bought. On a side note, I think there may be something wrong with the PSU... the PC is randomly shutting itself down and sometimes when I boot up, i hear the PC making the noise but nothing shows on the monitor.

I am thinking a new PSU may solve this, which might also allow for an upgraded GPU...?
