Hi, If you've tested with different graphics card and it does work, then get a new card and that's it.
A GTX 970 would be just fine.

Depending on the games you play, you can upgrade from 6gb to 8gb RAM. It's up to you!
Same thing with storage, if your 500gb is enough then you won't need 1TB.
If you don't need any of the above just get the gtx 970 GPU & you'll be good.
