Your OS is terrible, better upgrade it or whatever & i'll go with the 750 TI suggestions that people said.

The OS is no prize, but it should be running just fine. The only differences between Windows Vista and Windows 7 are some incremental improvements and a damned big security hole Microsoft put into 7.

Don't replace a working OS just because somebody who doesn't know how you use your computer told you it was terrible.

cjrgreen: New nVidia cards are less likely to be troublesome on such motherboards than new AMD cards.
Yes, that's the main reason I linked that page. :)

HG1995: Ok, I found MSI Radeon R7 265 OC 2GB $179 AUD. Not sure if it needs extra power adapter. Some cards seem to need extra power for the overclocked version.
A few options for gtx 750 ti cards.
MSI GeForce GTX 750 Ti Gaming 2GB $189 AUD could be a tight fit, just need to move hdd.
Should just miss Memory slots.
EVGA GeForce GTX 750 Ti $189 AUD. Only 6.7” long.
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 750 Ti OC 2GB $179 AUD. Minimum power 400W

ASUS ATI HD7750 V2 PCI-E 3.0, 1GB 128-bit GDDR5 $109AUD

Leaning towards the MSI GeForce GTX 750 Ti or EVGA GeForce GTX 750 Ti.
Or the R7 265. Not sure on which on to go for?
Mainly playing old games but some newer ( Witcher 2, Batman Arckham City) hoping for very slight improvement.
Thanks for all the quick answers

cjrgreen: The R7 265 is 150W TDP. That Thermaltake "power supply" is more fire hazard than power supply and absolutely must be replaced to run a card like that. It's a much better performer and definitely the better deal at those prices.
Got the 750 ti for compatibility with pci-e 1.0.
Would still like to upgrade PSU after reading hardware secrets.
Not too sure which one to get or whether i need a new PSU for the 750 ti.
These seem to have the correct power and connectors

Antec 520W High Current Gamer Power Supply (HCG-520)
Antec True Power Classic TPC-450 450W Power Supply
Corsair CS450M 450W 80+ Gold Semi-Modular Power Supply
Corsair CX-430M Modular Bronze Power Supply. Some forums say this is poor quality PSU
Seasonic G series 450W PSU 80Plus Gold
Seasonic M12 II Bronze 520W Power Supply
Silverstone Strider 550W 80 Plus Gold Modular Power Supply

I would go with a modular PSU if I still need to upgrade.

Thanks for any advice.

Go with a gold one. Might as well complete your power savings wheel.
