Currently My PC has a specification as below:

1. MB : Asus M5A78L-M LX V2
2. Proc : AMD FX-6300
3. RAM : Kingstone Hyper X 1866 Mhz 8 GB
4. HDD : Samsung EVO SSD
5. GPU : Sapphire HD 5770 Vapor-X
6. PSU : Simbadda 500W
7. OS : Windows 7 64 bit

Just upgraded the Proc yesterday to FX-6300, I used Phenom II X2 555 before.

With this component they are doing just fine. Very satisfied with the FX-6300. I can play heroes of the storm with resolution 1440 X 900 and Extreme setting at 60 Hz with no lag at all.
I tried X-com 2 with the same resolution and ultra setting. I have notice that FPS was dropping and it was not smooth when i slide the mouse along the screen.

If I want to play most of the games with 1920 X 1080 Rez & Ultra setting.
What is the most feasible upgrade for the GPU and PSU using this MB and Proc?.

I'm not setting any budget limitation, i know that my MB have it's own limitation already.

Sorry for my bad english. any comment and advice will be very appreciated. Thanks
 
Solution
The 370 is better and would be decent. 500w is enough assuming it's a good quality unit. I've never heard of a Simbadda unit, and it's not everyday I come across a psu brand I've never heard of.


From the shop i bought FX 6300 said.. He had the experience that GTX 960 will not detected M5A78L-M LX, even the BIOS already updated to the latest. He suggested me to GTX 750ti or R7 370. what i worried is if i get GTX 960 will it be bottlenecked by FX 6300 or from my MB.

Currently My option are Asus Strix R7 370 4G, Asus GTX 750ti, or should I get a better card?

For the PSU. 500W is enough? or should i go for more?
