Gday.

We will also need the brand/model of the current PSU.

the brand is Dynex and the model number is dx-ps500W

Thanks for the info. 

Found the correct spec sheet, > http://www.manualsdi...0w.html?page=12  But am unable to tell how many PCI-E connectors it has.   I think your present GPU has 1x6 pin, can you look please and see if there are 2x6 pin connectors.

[mike65707]

Yes, there are

Thanks for the update.

Within your budget the R9 270X is the highest you can go, this is also the best perforating as well.   I have some reservations about your PSU, it does, just, meet the required power specs, but it is a poor quality card and suggest you upgrade to a better quality one as soon as possible.

 

3 cards to consider, the Gigabyte would be my first choice > http://www.newegg.co...125-476:$$$$$$$
