Hello guys. I'm really not that good at this so please bare with me.

I tried to build my own PC a year ago, and it didn't turn out well. My GPU sucks so now I wanna get a new one.

My specs are:
CPU: core i5 3340 3.30 GHz
RAM: 4GB
Motherboard: H61-m s2p
GPU: Nividia Geforce 210. Yeah, sucks. I know.

So what do you think ? I've been thinking about the GTX 750 Ti & the AMD R9 270X. but what do i know.
Also, I might consider getting 2GB more of RAM, you might want to know that too.
Thx guys :)

The good news is that you have a solid CPU.
Don't buy a new graphics card until the RX-480 is released at the end of the month. It's in the price range you're considering but performs more than twice as well as the cards you're considering. It's honestly a groundbreaking piece of hardware, feel free to google the initial benchmarks.
Also, don't get 2gb more ram, go for the full 4 more. You want any dual-channel functionality your mobo has to be working. Also make sure to pick up the same sticks that you got last time. Sticks with different timings will be a hindrance.
