@TKUIYEAGER1 Yeah a 950 does not suit that build at all.It is not a good value card

So which card?

A basic entry level i5 clocked won't bottleneck most cards and doesn't need a fancy cooler.My advice gtx 1060, gtx 970, rx 480, rx 470 minimum if you are spending that much wouldn't even reccomend a gtx 960.Is this build for gaming, video editting or other

I would suggest a i5 4460 or i5 6400 depending on if you want ddr3 or ddr4 or what ever you can find cheaper will do great for editing.With a big budget like that it comes down to personal preference for graphics card between the gtx 1060 and rx 480 8gb. The 1060 has 2gb less vram at 6gb but that doesnt really matter it performs about 15% faster than the rx 480 and is just as fast as last generations gtx 980 and can be found lowest price at 250 dollars.The rx 480 8gb model is 10 dollars cheaper and performs around gtx 970 levels but can out perform the 1060 in certain dx12 titles and games with vulkan support (only one game supports it so far doom) due to how poorly the 1060 handles  asynchronous compute so with newer games could out perform it

Maybe look at some AMD options and compare them to the i5 at this point. Get a newer GPU (I'm thinking RX480/GTX1060/GTX1070). Seriously consider a cheap 120 or 240GB SSD for the OS because it will improve your experience massively (And Windows 10 natively supports multiple drives). 

If I find time today, I'll have a look at your options on PCPartpicker.

Yep, this looks like the sort of thing I was thinking of. (And it gives you options in the future if you want to upgrade)

Not sure what you mean. Are you looking for a card above or below this price?

Yeah it's fairly new. Do they have an RX480?

Otherwise you might want to buy the card from another shop or order online since you're unlikely to get better performance for your money than these new options.

It's getting old, and you won't have the same performance or compatibility as a newer card for the same price. Have a look online at different shops if you can. If you really can't find a better option then you'll have to stick to the 950.
