Hi and welcome to TIMO.

It appears you have a PCI-E slot, which is what all the new cards support. So finding a card isn't going to be a problem. But, we really need to know more detailed specs on your Power Supply. Even though you listed 460w, it's best we know the amperage on the 12v+ rail, and the manufacture of the PSU. Cheap 460w PSU's are A LOT different then quality 460w PSU's.

And also, what is your budget for this upgrade?
