LF advice on system and GPU upgrade

[Wombleclubber]

Hello all,

My GPU is finally on it's way out. Despite checking drivers, connections and settings the fan is constantly running and will probably be going soon.

I am looking to upgrade the GPU and take any advice on what else I should look at changing.

I don't have a super system but only use it to play simple games like Civ 5, XCom series and other RTS.

I currently have:

AMD Radeon HD 6900 GPU
ASUS P8268-v motherboard
Saga 2 500w power supply
8gb RAM
Intel 4 core I5-2500k CPU 3.30Ghz
Kingston 240gb SSD
Samsung 1Tb Hard drive
Running on Windows 10 x64

I am looking to budget between £150 to £200 for the GPU but will happily take advice on it.

Thank you all in advance.

Thank you the prompt reply. You think I should change anything else soon?

Haha a good point that would be a little annoying. What brand PSU would be a good one to look at. Sorry about all the questions but this is not my area of expertise.

Yes I will be. Not to bad at the leg work just the knowledge of products and synergies I lack.

Thank you very much. Fingers crossed this may be first tentative steps into the PC building and Modding
