Upgrading graphics card

    Hi,

    I'm buying a graphics card for my brother as his pooped, he currently has a PC with the following:
    - OCZ CoreXStream 500w power supply
    - AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition
    - 8GB ddr3 ram
    - ASUS M5A78L-M LX Sockel AM3+ mATX

    I'm thinking I need PCI-E card (?), and am happy enough paying around 100 yoyos.

    Its primarily for games (eg GuildWars2 etc).

    Perhaps something like:
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Asus-nVIDIA-GeForce-Graphics-Express/dp/B005G50ET6/ref=sr_1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1353013096&sr=1-1
    (nvidia 550 Ti for £86)?

    I can also pickup from the UK if it helps

    Any thoughts on this or other recommendations?
