GPU Upgrade

[pommy02]

Hi Guys

Need some advice with a GPU upgrade please. Got my hands on a HP w9400 workstation that overall is pretty capable at some older games but struggles with the newer. It has a dual quad core amd 2356 @ 2.30 GHZ, 32Gb Ram and an ati radeon 5450. Guessing this card is the biggest drawback.

What would you suggest for this?

Budget is 100-150 ex vat. I think the PSU says max 1050w.

If I've missed anything let me know.

Cheers for reading.

Thanks for the response. Ideally I want to be at 1080 for now. This pc will hopefully get my son into pc gaming and keep us going until I can build myself a whole new one.

Liking the look of the 960 above. Never heard of KFA2 though. How do they compare with EVGA, ASUS, MSI etc?

Thanks for your help. Just clicked buy, got the added bonus of another £10 off so treated myself to Saturday delivery

I'll check the 12v tomorrow when I open it up. It has got a 6 pin connector as i already checked that. The most intensive game that i will be playing is Cities Skylines which is useable at the moment so any improvement will do. This is just to keep us going until my pocket will stretch to a 5820k based system. If I can get my son more interested in pc games it will help me win over the boss which is always a bonus!
