Then install the new card and install its drivers fresh new and you'll be gold.

Do you know where i can find the model of my power supply,and if its enough for the rx 580

 

Sorry my gf thought she could wrestle me had to defeat her...

 

i7 will cost you but an i5 wont be upgrade any more so i suggest an R5 1600 AM4 system.

 

With regard to your psu what do you have?

Just realised the psu is irrelevant really as the 750Ti is not as power efficient as the 580. The 580 will actually be more powerful yet consume less (electrical) power than a 750Ti

Really? so RX580 or 1060... because they are KINDA close in price by like 10 dollars

Personally the 580 because 8GB will serve you much better than 3GB. While the 1060 may perform better in overwatch. You want this to be a lasting purchase for the future. If you get a 1060 the I'd say you need the 6GB variant.

 

Full size 1060 6GBs are ~ $240 if you want to go that way.

 

EDIT: By full size i mean not the "mini" class. These are for ITX builds where space is a premium. You want a full size card.

I have filtered by manufacturer here for you:

Though we are getting further and further away from your budget so I still recommend the 580.

Sorry I was watching a movie.

 

Yes your motherboard will take it. PCI-e is a standard the graphics card will adhere to whether its AMD or Nvidia
