Talk about an unbalanced build. 

get an R9 270 or better. 

You'll also need to get a new psu for anything better than a 750Ti (CX430 would work).

The cpu might need a small overclock but whats your budget also you will need a better psu no doubt

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

What were you thinking with 16 GB or RAM! xD The 750 ti would be a good choice because you have such a small power supply.

For a game that's not even out you have high hopes and dreams LOL. GTA V is propbly going to bring the best GPUs to their nees let alone a low power one that is not even backed by Mantle whick GTA V will leverage.

Juging by history it would dictate that it will be. Juging by how complex and detailed the graphics look it will be extreamly hard on PC hardware.

Theres a chance they'll actually optimize it for pc this time around...

750 ti would be a very good choice. you can get either the single cooler versions from someone like EVGA is you dont have a large enough psu or a full sized card and overclock it hard.

I´ve got a GTX 750Ti in my HTPC and the card runs most games in 1080 med settings with acceptable FPS between 40-70.

 

Depending on what game you will be you can actually see more FPS, unless you run into a CPU based game... then the card won´t help you much with your weak CPU.

 

The card is good so far and I decided to get this because of the low power and noise level since I use it im my living room. The card would compliment your system, I have in idle (measured by a Watts-meter) 65Watts and under load 127Watts total of power consumption out of the wall.

 

System Specs of my HTPC:

 

Asus H81 mATX

Intel i5 4430 @ 3GHz

2x4 GB G.Skill Ripjaws 1600 C8

EVGA GTX750 Ti ACX (requires one 6 pin power connector)

Sandisk Pro 128GB SSD

Corsair CX430

 

So you see nothing special and the power consumption of this card is very low and still you´ll get a good card for your money.

 

Intel i7 7820X (delidded) @ 4.9GHz - MSI X299 M7 ACK + EKWB Fullcover Block - G.Skill Trident Z 32GB @ 3466MHz - nVidia Titan Xp + EKWB Fullcover Block @ 2.1GHz - Samsung 960Pro 2x - WDD Blue 2TB - Seasonic 750W Platinum - modded Corsair 600C - Hardtubed Custom Watercooling
