GPU and PSU Upgrade

[CorMazz]

OK guys, I'm trying to upgrade my current graphics card from an onboard graphics card to one where I can play some games with no lag. My specs are;
Motherboard- M4A88T-M
CPU- AMD Phenom II x4 355 3.2ghz
Ram- 14 gigs
Harddrive- 1 tb
PSU- Seasonic ss-350et which is 350watts

My budget is around 200 dollars. Btw I have already kind of leaned towards the GTX 650 ti. If we need to upgrade the psu so be it. Thanks.

The GPU you specified will allow you to run most games just fine, although probably only in medium settings or so. As for your power supply, you could PROBABLY get by with the power supply you have, but I would highly recommend upgrading to a 450 or 500 watt power supply. That way it will be less loaded down, quieter, cooler, more stable, and last longer. It's up to you. You can use this site to get an idea of how much power you need, then I would recommend having at least 10% more than it tells you:
