Looking for GPU advice

[Japsert]

Hi there!

 

My PC isn't great (getting a new one is not an option) so I want to upgrade. I've noticed my biggest bottleneck is my Nvidia/Asus GeForce GT630 (Silent edition) with just 1GB of vRAM.

Now, I'm looking for someone that fits in a budget of about 100 euros (US$ 117, CA$ 153). I only have 1 (one) 6 pin connector from my power supply.

 

I'm really not experienced in anything hardware, so I need help finding one.

Feel free to help, thanks in advance.

What are the other specs mainly the psu in detail (model number not just brand). Also what is the goal of this upgrade? Any game you want to play?

I have absolutely no idea. It's some generic grey/silver one with yellow, red and black wires.

It doesn't have a brand name nor a model number on it. It's 460 watt though.

Sure. CPU is an Intel i7 860, running dual channel 16GB (2x8). The motherboard is an MSI Indio.
Here's the sticker.

I think a second hand 1650 or 1050ti that don't need an extra power connection are your best bet

Do those exist without requiring extra power? Also, aren't those really expensive?

They exist yes and in the netherlands they go for around 100 used. Look on ebay, facebook marketplace or marktplaats.

Yep there are versions of those without extra power and should be around 100 used
