Hello guys! 

 

I have a crappy H61M-VS3 motherboard with 1xPCI Express 3.0 at x16

I3-2105   

8gb DDR3 ram 

 

i want to buy a new graphic card.........like R9 390 or GTX 970 

                        

is my motherboard enough for thous Cards if so then which card should i buy and also suggest me a good PSU.

thx     my budget $450

i think your cpu is a bottleneck

Mate. What ever the GPU between those two, The CPU is a bottleneck.

 

Get a 960. Or Upgrade the Processor to an i5 and then get 390.

 

For PSU, Get EVGA G2 750W PSU.

With your current system, I would stick with a 380 or 960 since your processor would bottleneck higher cards too much.

Maybe getting an i5 or even a 8 threads xeon for 200$ would be a better option.

It would be more cost-efficient if you buy a second-hand ivy bridge i5 or i7, the performance gain from Skylake is to low to make sense if you can get a good deal with ivy bridge or even sandy bridge (Core i-3000 and i-2000 series)

To answer your original question: Yes. Your motherboard will support any of the newer cards just fine. Your cpu is a little lackluster but it will work just fine as filler until you upgrade.
