Failed Nvidea card what should i buy to replace ? thanks

hi all, my 5.5year old Nvidea GTX 560 failed recently causing bluescreen errors etc, ive removed it from cyberpower pc
that has an ASUS P8Z68-V LX motherboard from belarc advisor tool it says its an Board: ASUSTeK Computer INC. P8Z68-V LX Rev X.0x , Bus Clock: 100 megahertz, heres link to info on it asus dot com /Motherboards/P8Z68V_LX/[/url] in specs here
asus dot com /Motherboards/P8Z68V_LX/specifications/[/url] it shows it has 1 x PCIe 2.0 x16 (blue) *1
1 x PCIe 2.0 x16 (x4 mode, black) *1
2 x PCIe 2.0 x1
3 x PCI


now ive bought a 4k panasonic camcorder that recommends at least 8gb memory so i used crucial.com to find more ddr3 memory for my pc ( ive bought 8gb on 1 stick so ill have 12gb total, im told some of the editing of videos is done on a graphics card so what graphics card can my pc take ?
can any graphics card go in a PCIe slot ??

im looking at Nvidea here geforce dot com /hardware[/url] but i dont know what i need..1050/1060/1070/1080ti ?????? prices seem to be between £150 - £700

any help appreciated thanks ( remember ill have 12gb ram fitted soon so how powerful a graphics card will i need to edit 4k videos ??

Please run CPU-Z so you can tell us your CPU model number??

What software are you using and do you play any games??

Also ideally you really want to be running RAM in dual channel,so if you have an odd number of RAM sticks the RAM will most probably default to single channel mode.

belarc advisor says i have 3.40 gigahertz Intel Core i7-2600K i may overclock it soon as it used to be overclocked to 4.5gig

i run win10 pro, im not a gamer, i mostly need good graphics card to play 1080p and 4k movies and edit my own 4k camcorder footage

ok ill try out the 8gb ram when i get it along with the 2x2gb i already have and let you know if its detected ok or not thanks

That depends on your video editing package. Some do, some don't.

Video editing is not like gaming or 3D rendering where a graphics processor is absolutely essential though.

I would try it using your system's integrated graphics. If you find it too slow in areas where you video editing program can use GPU acceleration then you can buy a new card.

Yeah,it would be good to know what software you are using.

well the Panasonic Camcorder i own is this model here amazon dot co dot uk /Panasonic-HC-VXF990EBK-Camcorder-Wireless-Function/dp/B01AAGIKAK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1510269168&sr=8-1&keywords=panasonic+4k+camcorder

in the box they tell us we can download their own software from here av.jpn.support.panasonic dot com /support/global/cs/soft/download/f_ae54.html software is called HD Writer, ive no idea if it uses a graphics card to help !
but ive not downloaded/used it yet ive only had camcorder a few weeks, i am open to buying any software any1 can show me is the best to get as i must learn to edit 4k footage as file sizes are massive so i must be able to upload/send clips to people that arnt crazy huge as sometimes at airshows etc i film for 25minutes in 1 take !!! in 4k that may end up as about a 12gb file !!

thanks for any help : )

I wouldn't expect bundled software like that to have lots of fancy features. It may support Quicksync/NVENC/VCE for encoding but I'd expect the editing to be CPU-only. I can't find a great deal of information on it.

What do you use for your video editing currently?

If you don't game,then either use the IGP,or buy something like a GT1030 which actually has hardware to decode some of the newer codecs like h265.

thanks as i said im also thinking to buy a program eg sony vegas pro that someone mentioned to me , ive never used it so know nothing about it, i tried playing a 4k movie today it worked for about 20mins then my pc froze and i had to crash it !

currently with my 1080p camcorder i used panasonic hd writer a tiny bit but 99% of my videos go on youtube unedited
