What is your budget?

GTX 950 is a good mid-range card, will match the i5 CPU and will run on that power supply.

Sorry For Late Respond! But will it fit with my graphics card slot? just wondering cause i have 1.0 but the gtx 950 has PCI Express 3.0 x16....

No you won't have Gen 1.0 PCIe. Your computer has an H67 chipset, which means Gen 2.0 PCIe. All modern graphics cards are Gen 3.0 but are backward compatible with 2.0 and 1.1, they are meant to be compatible with 1.0 but sometimes they aren't.
So what this means to you is your Gen 2.0 x16 PCIe slot (which you have) can handle a modern graphics card.

So my GTX 950 will fit perfectly? and how much fps will it lose?

There is no practical performance loss in putting a 3.0 card in a 2.0 slot, as there is not a card (especially not the 950) that can saturate the full bandwidth of 3.0

What games could i run with my build and GTX 950?
Maybe there is a GPU cheaper and almost same perfomance of 950?
Sorry im new to pc gaming (2Months)

Here is a review of the card, which includes game benchmarks: https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/EVGA/GTX_950_SSC/
The 950 has one of the best Price/Performance ratios on the market right now, there is nothing better in its price range.

The cooler, and the factory overclock.
The MSI model has a much better cooler (which means a cooler, quieter, and better overclocking card), and runs faster out of the box.
I recommend the MSI card.

If you get a 950 with your current i5 you might even be able to run SEUS shaders on servers around 60 fps on minecraft, if you dont know what that is you should check it out once u get the new card and use it to its maximum potential in even minecraft 😛

you should be able to run most current games out there, maybe not on really great settings but medium at minimum, mayve on some extreme games like planetside 2 you will have problems with but otherwise you should be good to go on most games your cpu has decent single core performance and your GPU will be a decent gaming GPU

Can you list a ram for my pc total of 10gb?
If possible amazon.co.uk
If you could do that i would be more than thankful

 

[Gam3r01]

I dont recommend getting an odd number like that, look at 8GB or 16GB.

Sorry to trouble you again but is it okay that my pc recommended mhz reaches over?

Increasing your RAM from 6 will not help you much. If you have a 2 and a 4 gig stick, replacing the 2 gig stick with a 4 of the same specs may help a bit, but not too much. I would not bother spending the money on RAM in your case. 6 is a decent amount, it's actually what I have in my system with two 2 gig and two 1 gig sticks.
