andy2004 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 well that was a totally useless reply. Thats a motherboard with 0 onboard graphics, so he'll still need to buy a graphics card. And a new processor and memory. may I suggest you read this. http://www.xtremegaminerd.com/best-graphics-cards-under-100/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator DKT27 Posted May 3, 2016 Administrator Share Posted May 3, 2016 I would suggest you wait a little. While it may take some time for it, newer gen graphics cards, which are going to be almost double as faster as previous ones, are going be released in about a few months. If not, then here is another list. While AMD and nVidia both have good cards. I would recommend GTX 950 here, but it's expensive than what you want here.

rudrax Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 HD 530 is good for basic games at low setting, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylence Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Definitely go for AMD Radeon cards, they have unmatched price to performance ratio. I suggest you go to AMD's official website http://shop.amd.com/en-us/components/graphic-cards http://www.amd.com/en-us if you could wait for their next gen Polaris 10 and 11 graphic cards which are going to be released in early summer then that would be great because they are game changing! anyway, even if you're just stepping into the gaming world that price limit is too low, any card you buy under 100$ for today's games you'll definitely regret the second you start that game. so if you're intending to buy one now, I'd suggest this one: price: 120$ Model: PowerColor Radeon R9 270 (AXR9 270 2GBD5-DHV2/OC) 2048MB PCIe Gen 3.0 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 Core Clock 930 MHz Boost Clock 955 MHz 1 x DL DVI-I 1 x HDMI 1 x DisplayPort 1280 Stream Processors PCI Express 3.0 it's better than all those models you listed above, the same VRAM but double bandwidth (i.e 128-bit vs. 256-bit) and that's an important factor you gotta consider because it prevents your card from throttling under high loads. here's the comparison: (although I never suggest this website because they're paid to be unquestioned fan boys of Nvidia as people say) http://gpuboss.com/gpus/Radeon-R9-270-vs-GeForce-GTX-750-Ti unfortunately Nvidia's mass advertisements sometimes lead people not to consider better choices that come from the red team, AMD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jumper128 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 I suggest to wait a little for the AMD Polaris to show up. Nvidia Pascal VC showed already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
