can you tell us your budget?

What do you want to do with it? Play games? What is the brand and model of your PSU?
Budget?
Up to around $160, a GTX750Ti is a nice choice. It uses very little power, but is a huge step up from a HD5570. If you'd prefer to stay with an AMD card, you might find a R7 260X for close to that price too. It is slightly stronger, but uses more power as well, and needs a quality PSU (400W would be enough, but the quality needs to be good; you'll need to let us know what your PSU is).

is there anything else i can say about my PSU besides it being 600W?

 

[Danbuscus25]

well, the brand and efficiency. but for just a graphics card for 300 euros, go with gtx 780. or if you can find it for the right price, gtx 780Ti. im not good with euros, i live in america. but 300 euros is about $500 usd right?

 

[Onus]

The brand and model of the PSU will let us know if it is of sufficient quality. Some brands, e.g. Apevia, Logisys, Diablotek, and even Cooler Master, put labels on many of their units that are pure lies concerning what they are actually able to produce. Hopefully it is not on this list: http://www.johnnylucky.org/power-supplies/psu-lemon-list.html

Check out the GTX 660, 760, or 770. They're all great GPUs, I just don't know what price they're going for in Europe.

I doubt you'll need a new PSU, but Onus raises a VERY good point.

GTX 780 is around 440 euros, for as far as i can find

Yeah, plus if his PSU wasn't delivering all 600W, he'd run into some serious problems using the 780. I think the max he should go for is the 770.

By the way, what CPU do you have?

@Onus: That PSU Lemon list has got to be one of the most useful things I have ever seen! Thanks for sharing!

 

[Danbuscus25]

well, try for 760 or 770 if you can. or on the amd side hd 7950 is good too

My cpu is a intel core i5 2300

 

[Danbuscus25]

your cpu is fine, so you can handle up to 780 without bottleneck.

Perfect! Plenty powerful. My recommendation for the GTX 770 still stands 😛

 

[Danbuscus25]

i will second that, the 770 is a great card and can run most games on very high-ultra settings
