ok then that would probably be your best bet.....a newer gtx 670 or 680 would be above your budget and wouldnt really give you any boost in performance in photoshop

you need to tell us what your budget is for this upgrade....we could tell you to pick up the highest end workstation card for a crap load of money but that may be out of the question.....a good card for this use is a gtx 570 it runs photoshop and all that well and as an added bonus it can still game..but it wont run photoshop as well as a workstation card would

here is a link to a decent 570
