Hey I'm looking to buy a new gpu with a reasonable price (around 170€ max, a little more if its REALLY good). I need a new gpu because my current gpus drivers aren't supported anymore. So is there any good new gpus that are in that price range? I've been thinking i'd get gtx950. Would that be good and are there better in the same price range?

((sorry about the bad english, it's not my native language))
Thanks in advance for the help :)

I disagree with buying a weak GPU to match a weak CPU. My overclocked QX6800 went from 37% in Firestrike with a GTX750Ti to 58% (7004 score) when I installed an R9-285. Not only will you enjoy your old computer more, you won't have to buy again when you upgrade later. I'd go for the GTX960 or R9-380. You didn't say what card you can't get drivers for but AMD just released new drivers last month for HD5xxx, and HD6xxx cards.

The 950 is a good budget card, its mid range for gaming too. If you can push and find a deal on a 960 then thats better and should last longer. If you are to buy a card new, then wait for the other 1070 cards to arrives and then prices will go lower

My cpu is AMD phenom II so thats pretty old too, but it has been doing well. PSU is 550 watts. The case is ATX mid tower (439 x 190 x 490 mm)

Look for a used mobo and an i5 comba, you can find a lot of offers that match your price range.

Yeah but that was last month, I would need the new crimson drivers to support mirrors edge catalyst and those aren't made for HD6xxx series
