Hey there people, I've been a console gamer my whole life and recently, now that I make my own money, I decided to try out and see if the master race life is for me. The problem is that I know very basic stuff about GPUs and CPUs and absolutely nothing about power supplies and coolers etc.
A year and something ago I bought a new desktop (I'll give details on the specs) and it's actually a decent machine and even plays some games really well too, but I was looking to see if I could put a good GPU in it and really push it to the next level.
I wanted one I could just snap in there though, like open the case and connect it to the PCI slot without having to buy another power supply, cooler or whatever. So that's what I wanted to ask, what GPUs would you guys recommend given my situation?
That's the desktop I got:
Asus M32
AMD A6-6400K APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics 3.90 GHz
* AMD Radeon HD 8470D
* 8.00 GB DDR3
