GPU Update: I have a 6y0 PC in good working order that I would like to get another couple of years out of. It main build features an Intel core i7 860 2.8Ghz CPU; Biostar TH55B HD 6.0 PCI Express 2.1 x16 motherboard; Enermax 650w revolution 87+gold PSU; Radeon HD 5450 GPU. I would like to upgrade the GPU to obtain better resolution graphics with something along the lines of Gigabyte AMD RX560 4GB PCI 3.0 x16 GPU.
Will this type of upgrade work or do suggest another solution?

It would be a massive upgrade. I would also look at the gtx 1050 it as it essentially the same performance as the 560. I would also make sure you are running the latest bios on your motherboard to avoid incompatibility.
