I am looking for a new graphics card because i am currently using the AH3650 which is getting quite out-dated. To make this clear: Yes, my mobo bottlenecks my graphics card. No, i am not currently planning to replace it.
I am using this mobo:

My budget is around €150. If you need any more info, tell me.

New motherboard first.
Yes, i am "an ATI person" and i also was looking at the 5770, but the price went up on the website i want to buy it. Maybe a little less than the 5770?
[QUOTE=Justice;22194591]Uhh did you guys not notice the fact he has a PCI-E slot on it or what
As long as his CPU is decent enough (eg Q6600) he should be perfectly fine getting a new card unless I'm missing something important (that motherboard is really shit but hey)
OP, get a 5770, the slot seems to be in x4 mode so it's probably going to be bottlenecked if you go with anything higher than that (and will probably be bottlenecked to begin with if you put any modern card in it.)[/QUOTE]
He'll still be bottlenecked because of it not supporting even x8.
Justice said exactly what i was thinking.
