ok, so i have a old pc but not that old...currently the specs are
core2duo 2.0 ghz E4500
1 GB ram 400 mhz DDR2
mobo- MSI - Ms 7267 (chipset i945g)
onboard graphics
windows 7

now i want to upgrade graphic card and ram but not the processor...ram i will get 4 GB DDR2 and i want to ask which will be the best GPU under 5k (82$) which will be able to play games like Far cry 3 with my core2duo 2.0 ghz processor....i know that processor is weak but i seen people with pentinum processors with gpu playing games like assasins creed....please suggest the best gpu in my budget and tell wether my cpu will handle or not....

If I was you I would get a SSD, 4GB Ram & I would recommend getting a AMD Radeon HD 6670, 6850 or 7770 as they would be the best cards for your system. If your on a budget try and get any of the GPU's listed above used from somewhere at a good price.
The only reason I wouldn't recommend the R7 series cards is because they would bottleneck your system!

Hope this helps!

Really anything for 83$ wont play far cry 3 good If i was you id save up a bit more and get a gtx 650 ti /650 ti boost which will last a bit longer in gaming than any card you are going to buy for that budget but if you don't want to wait the r7 250 is good for you
