[refaelagronov]

Hello i have a really old PC,

CPU: i5 4440 3.10
Motherboard: GA-H81M-D2V (rev. 1.0)
GPU: will be GTX680
RAM: now its 4GB upraging to 8GB
and PSU: ATX-500W

Your i5 will handle a GTX 680 no problem. Just another idea though, why not consider a GTX 1050 or 1050Ti?

motherboard can fit 1050?
my PSU will handle CPU and GPU?
and the motherborad i guess will be cool with the GPU size

1050 is compatible with your motherboard knowing the processor you have and consumes much less power while being almost double the performance compared to the 680.

What psu do you have? Depending on model, an GTX 680 can require 2x 6pin PCIe cords from the psu or 1x 8pin. GTX 1050 or 1050Ti can run off the PCIe slot alone being a 75watt card, with some overclocked models requiring a 6 pin PCIe cord.
