I built austin evan's boson build from 2014 and  was wondering where to go from here, not too over kill but enough to handle most games at average graphics settings (medium) with at least 60 fps and 1080p

 

Here is the link to the build : http://austinnotduncan.com/builds/boson/    with a corsair cx430   430 watt psu

 

 

Thanks in advance!

You can get a GTX 960, but it will cause a bottleneck with your CPU as it isnt powerful enough: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00SC6HAS4/?tag=pcpapi-20

 

To be honest, you are better off buying a whole new computer.
