Hi all:
First time posting.
I have a fairly old computer (setup is described below). I have a socket LGA1155 motherboard, so can't really move up on the CPU side, but I figured that I might be able to upgrade my graphics card from the GTX 650 Ti to a newer generation one for cheap (or free).
I am not much of a gamer, and probably will use GPU for scientific computing. (maybe play a little DOOM on occasion). Any recommendations (budget is fairly low, under $250, but would like to see what best options are at different price points)?
Setup
=====
Motherboard ASROCK z77 Extreme4
CPU: i7-37770k (not overclocked)
RAM: 8 GB (2x4 GB Crucial)
Graphics: PNY GTX 650 Ti 1GB
Hard Drive: Samsung 850 EVO 256 GB
