Depends how much £ you want to spend, its gona be the best gpu you can afford and more importantly afford to keep running 24/7 365, also best water cooled to keep the noise down and the heat.
2 or even 3 or 4 gpus would give the highest PPD but id say buy the fastest card and add to it in future, my titan x is pretty bad ass

a 290x should be good, I have a 290 tri x and some work units are 220'00 ppd others less
if electric costs are no issue, add another 290x or if it is a gtx 970 / 980
check this data base of what current gpus at what speed can do PPD WISE

bottom of the table somebody had 1 million ppd from a titan x
you've done 90 work units but your points are VERY low , you must have not added your passkey, get one below

Ppd are low because that's a Mac folding on just an i5 CPU.
My pc chucks out around 280k ppd folding on a different team.
I'm looking to build a matx system for the fun of it and that will also be folding 24/7 but not used for any serious gaming.
I have a spare R9 270x lying about so might use that but was just wondering what the other options were.
