Recommendation on what card to go for?

Alrighty, so I recently did (almost) a full upgrade, and I now have a

-I7-6600k

-16gigs ddr4 2400

 

I now have a bit more money, and need to address something I put off- my graphics card. I've gotten away with running almost every game on bare min settings with my cute little GeForce 650. I'd be able to spend around maybe 350 maximum (including PSU) and I'm not sure what parts go with what up here in the slightly more expensive zone. I've never had this kind of budget for a PC so I'm really excited

 

Anyways, what card should I run? Is 350$ enough or too much compared to my other specs? What wattage power supply will I need?

most cards will be fine with 500w i would go for an 5600 xt or 1660 ti, I mean it alos depends on what games you play also

NOTE: I AM NEVER ALWAYS RIGHT, BUT I AM HAPPY TO HELP ANYWAY I CAN

i7-6700K or i5-6600K? The two are quite different.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad
