GPU Upgrade For HP Pavilion P7-1534

[TimT829]

Hi all, I've been doing a lot of research around the forum to try and get some suggestions for my upgrade. I recently purchased an HP Pavilion p7-1534 in hopes to use it as the bases of a Mid-range gaming PC and upgrading it. As i did my research i found mix reviews on the Processor (AMD A8-5500 3,2GHz Quad Core) which was my understanding to be a decent mid range CPU at time of purchase but others on the forum seem to say otherwise. I'm hoping you can help me determine what a good graphics card for this machine would be. My biggest concern about graphics cards as I've found with my research is with having bottlenecks with a new GPU. Also i Know that I'll have to upgrade my PSU from the Current 300 to something higher.

PC Specs
Motherboard: MSI MS-7778 (Jasmine)
Processor: AMD A8-5500 65W, 3.2 GHz Quad Core
Memory: 8GB DDR3 12800 MB/sec
Graphics: Integrated Radeon HD7560D
OS: Windows 8.1 64 Bit

looks like there not many cpu that can be dropped into that mb per hp upgrade info.
if it withing the 30 days i would return it for a newer pc that has the newer apu or x750 chip and mb. or fx 6300
in a few weeks amd dropping there newest apu on the fm2 plus mb.
