Asking for advice for a new GPU

[PrChewii]

So recently my GPU died which is very sad for me... lil pal and I had 5 years of pure fun and now he is gone
But in the end I gotta change my GPU for a new one and Im really having trouble to know what good GPU will work with my motherboard, so here are the sepcs:

APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: Next week, it's friday at the time of this post and almost all PC stores are closed in weekend 🙁 My Budget is around 110-224 $ USD

USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: I need a good GPU for Autodesk Maya and After Effects, and Gaming (Games like The Witcher 3 and Starcraft 2)

CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: I had a NVIDIA ZOTAC GeForce GTX 560 Ti

OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS: My case is a Cooler Master Centurion 5 II. My motherboard ASUS P8H61-M LX. Ram 8GB 7,71 usable.

PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: Im from Chile South America so Im only seeing stores from around here 🙁

PARTS PREFERENCES: Im not really sure

OVERCLOCKING: No, I want a GPU with a long lifetime

MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1680x1050

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: I was pretty happy with my ZOTAC GeForce GTX 560 Ti, I use a lot of Autodesk and Adobe Softwares and played the most new games.
Im looking for a GPU like the one I had before or something a slighty better.

I was checking this table

And I found the GTX 760 and 950 available in my country but a friend told me my Motherboard can't handle it because it's PCI, im not sure what my motherboard PCI is 🙁

So there is all the Info I know, if u guys need more info just ask, I really appreciate all the help this community has given me so far 😀!!!

Your GTX 560 Ti will have been PCI-E 2.0, and modern cards are PCI-E 3.0. Whilst PCI-E 3.0 has twice the bandwidth of PCI-E 2.0, they are compatible, and the reduction in bandwidth is unlikely to hamstring a card (it'd reduce it to the equivalent of 8 PCI-E 3 lanes, same as being in SLI). Personally, I'd look at the 9-series over the 7-series, as the 7-series is a bit more power-hungry (GTX 750 Ti excepted).

Well that's very awesome news!!!!!!
I was thinking about buying a GEFORCE MSI GTX950
Store page: http://www.pc-express.cl/product_info.php?cPath=83&products_id=6001 (it's in spanish)

If I buy that one is going to totally work in my motherboard?
