Rather than just specifying a particular model, its better if you search for a card based on these factors.

• GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) - The key thing for the Graphics rendering. The poplar ones out there in the market are NVIDIA and AMD.
• Don't forget to think about the cooling mechanism of the GPU, it's very important to have your system cool.
• Next is the Memory of the graphics card - Higher the memory, better the output
• Last but not least, think about the price and compatibility. Compatibility lies on the slots and stuff on your computer, and obviously price matters. As i know, NVIDIA is little expensive than MSI, it's up to you to decide.

Now, benchmark few popular card based on these types, and check the availability and price in the market, you'll simply end up in your card model.

Cheers!
