Ok that was the next question.. the i5 3470 or the i5 3570 would stop any bottlenecking or an I7 3770..

on your motherboard, the blue PCI slot is x16, so that new card should be fine.
I’d be more worried about physical space.
the slot is right at the edge of the board, is the board butted up to the edge of the case?
