You can only upgrade to an Nvidia 600 series graphics card because you have a Legacy BIOS ( BIOS AMI Ang_717, 13/04/2012).

 

There are other options for this mainboard but they are limited.

 

You can buy a graphics card from a few vendors that will have the ability to run on a Legacy BIOS.

 

Here are some options:

 

1. Sapphiretech has an X series AMD solution.

 

2. MSI has a GTX 750 option, N750Ti TF 2GD5/OC
N750Ti TF 2GD5.

 

You may find other options. I have only seen the above so far.
