if your planning on getting a better GPU, make sure you upgrade your PSU also.

nope, a cheap board with a PCI-E X16 slot can support it. Your system can support it, even an i3. Make sure you have a decent PSU, what is it?


200 watt I think. is was either 200 watt or 240.

Don't you need a amd board to run a amd chip set?

GTX 770 is much faster then 760, if you want the best choice, then easily GTX 770. If you want the best choice between GTX 770 and R9 290, easily the R9 290, that is comparable to the GTX 780.

was thinking of getting a gtx 770 or 760. I will be buying a new motherboard after I upgrade my video card. should I got for a 770 or get a Asus R9 290 DirectCU II.

What is you budget as you would be much better with a single more expensive GPU than 2x 650 ti boost?
