Thank you for the great responses. I'll look into the 750 ti and r7 260x. Here is my PSU, seems to be going pretty strong after 5 years: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817256061

Hello,
I was given a computer by a friend and it's an Emachine T5212 with overheating issue. It's equipped with a low end Pentium D 2.66ghz processor. I have cleaned out the dusts, removed the dried up thermal pad that was on it and applied arctic silver ceramique. Temperature in the bios says...
