Hi! I currently have an AMD A6-6400k APU. I am looking to upgrade my rig by adding a discrete graphics card and just disable the Radeon HD8470D on my A6. My question is, what is the best graphics card that the A6-6400k can handle without much of bottleneck issues....

Full specs :
AMD A6-6400k Richland 3.9 Ghz Turbo: 4.1Ghz with RADEON HD 8470D
Motherboard BIOSTAR HIFI A70U3P
VGen DDR3 8GB (2X4GB) PC 12800
Seagate 500GB
PSU 450W (a case with the PSU)
Acer P166HQL 15,6 1366x768 LED Monitor

I wouldn't go above a 1050 or so with this platform. Certainly nothing that need supplementary power as it's extremely rare for a PSU that's not included in a case to be anything but garbage. I probably wouldn't use one such under any conditions, but you're probably OK if you keep the power consumption low (not a guarantee, of course). Unless, of course, it's one of those rare cases, but you'd need to identify the PSU, which is the single most important bit of information for any GPU decision.
