You should look at a gtx 760 or 770, if you get one of these you will need to over clock your cpu to Stop it bottle necking your system.

Which power supply do you have? We'll need the make and model of it to determine what card you can use.

Oh please, that term is stupid and overused.

The components are fine, and won't make any of them run slower than their potential due to other components. Please don't feed people false information.

I would go with
Either of these:
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
those are the 2 competing cards from each side at/near that price range
you could also just go with the standard msi version of either of these for cheaper but the hawk series is very good
the 760 is slightly more powerful if you are willing to spend the money on it

You can get a R9 280X For the price of that 760, so i'd go for a 270X as its one of the best GPU's in the budget, but the 760 is slightly better, although you can get a 270x for 30 GBP less.

I've seen one 280X for 220 but not many are actually in stock from the looks of it.

My bet would be to get a 760 just because about 190 will get a you a great cooler on a GTX760 which should run silently and cool. If you want to save the money then you can get a 270X for like 155 with BF4.
