Which USB-3 PCI card (make & model) would be compatible with my computer? Are there any which should be avoided? Can the card just be installed or are there other changes/upgrades required to cause it to work properly?

Any that are supported by your OS and conform to PCI-e.
Here are your specs:

I don't see the amount of PCI slots in the internal connections, but the graphic clearly shows three PCIx1 and if one is open, you can pop-in a card.
Please post rather than send me a message. It's good for the community and I might not be able to get back quickly. - Thank you.

Any card which mounts into your available expansion slots should work. You have the following expansion slots according to your PC specs found here.
PCI Express x1: 3
I have found little difference in the performance of these expansion cards by manufacturer. There are many different port numbers and combinations available for the differing card slots though. I personally only use USB3 connections for a few devices and still use the USB2s for power only needs. I use this card (link), and have had no problems.
Please click the "Thumbs up + button" if I have helped you and click "Accept as Solution" if your problem is solved. If both apply......do both.
