Well, your power supply can handle most GFX cards, same goes for your motherboard. Given that it cannot crossfire, I will recommend a GTX 760-770, or a R9 280x. Both of these will fit in your case and easily work with your power supply.Depends on budget to be honest, if you cant afford cards as expensive as these, go for something like the 670 or the HD 7950, both of which are really cheap atm.
 

Thanks for the advice, was looking at the R9 280x, but was not sure if I could upgrade to that one, good to know, thank you, and if there was anything else I should upgrade, or am I good with what I have ? once again thanks for coming back.
Would you recommend this ( Asus AMD Radeon R9 280X 1070MHz 3GB PCI-Express 3.0 HDMI DirectCU II TOP OC, ) at 323 euro, ?
 





Yep I sure would, its a real good deal at that price!
