Hey, I'm new to gaming on PC and have just picked up a budget computer to start with. The only thing is - it doesn't actually have a GPU (noob mistake I guess)
It does have a APU which is okay for running low-end games but I want to be able to run more graphically intense games at a good frame rate.

Below are my specs -

AMD A8 6600k APU
8gb RAM
Gigabyte F2A88XM-HD3 Motherboard

(not sure what else to list haha)

Please could someone advise me on a few graphics cards that are reasonably cheap (around £100), will fit my PC and can run games like Call of Duty on high settings.

Thanks in advance and sorry if I didn't list enough details as I'm new to all of this.

First of all we going to need much more info

We need your budget( if you have one) What games you play( BF4, Thief etc) And your preferred settings (1080p, low-med etc.) and your power supply

Okay time for the APU answer. that APU cannot run a game more that TF2 or maybe it can run Civ 5 at 1080p
But if your going for 720p (Which i really doubt on a desktop) you can possibly run some lower end shooters
I have gone through a variety of graphics cards and a good mordern grapics card would be a R7 260X( http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127762).
Or a higher end solution would be a R9 270X to a R9 280X (Google them)
But if you want Nvidia Go for a 760 or 770.

But(i use alot of *But*) before i can give you a professional suggestion you must provide me with the info above.

Happy Gaming:wahoo:
