First of all, thanks for clicking and reading my post, second of all, I recently bought a 'gaming' computer (I guess it works pretty well)

MOBO - Gigabyte ga-78lmt-usb3 (has pci 2.x x16 I believe)

and I am currently looking at this GPU --
SAPPHIRE DUAL-X 100314-4L Radeon HD 6970 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 Video Card

I don't know anything about GPUs.. so plz halp :'(

Any help will be appreciated, even if you don't know, thanks for reading

Edit : Budget, 200-300$ max for graphics card

Case :(iBUYPOWER Raidmax Horus Gaming Case)

Processor : AMD FX-4300 Zambezi (3.8GHz/4.0GHz Turbo, 4MB L2 Cache) Quad Core(am3+ socket)

PSU - 350 Watt - ATX

RAM - ddr3 1333 8gb

I don't understand what you're asking? That's an old card. We don't know your budget or currency, so we can't suggest something. What are your current specs?

Again, we asked for case and PSU, going to need those to make sure anything we recommend is compatible.

If you can manage $2 over after reates, here;

Then you'll have a decent rig, and you can focus on a CPU+Mobo upgrade next.
