Hello. My graphics card is not the best, and I am looking to upgrade it with a new power supply as well. My current graphics card is the GeForce GT 610 and I have been having many issues with low fps in game. My CPU is the AMD FX 8320 Eight-Core Processor with 8 GB of RAM. I would like to play games like Planetside 2, CSGO, Rocket League, and Fallout. What graphics cards can be recommended for me?
Current Graphics Card: GeForce GT 610
Current CPU: AMD FX 8320 Eight-Core-Processor
RAM: 8 GB

how many watts is your PSU? You can probably just get a 750ti which will be WAYYYYY faster than your 610, and if your PSU is at least 300 watts you can run the 750ti. Of course if your PSU sucks, then it sucks, but you can get the PSU I link below for $20 after rebate and it will run a 750ti no problem. And its not amazing, but its $20.

First of all you want a quality PSU at least 600 W for future proof such as evga , crosair , for the gpu ,, you can start with a gtx 960 or R9 380 if your budget is around 200$ if you want to add more cash your best choice is GTX 970 or R9 380X , but keep in mind you must have a quality psu.
