Please recommend a Graphics Card in the price range rang of Rs.5000 to Rs.6500.
I am not a serious gamer & do not care about frame Rates etc.
Just want to play the following games in my 22" Acer LCD monitor.
Purpose: I want to play Wolfenstein- The new Order, Mafia 2, Maxpayne 3 and any FPS games which might be released in near future, without stuttering or lag.

My current Hardware:

CPU: AMD Phenom II X2 550 - 3.1GHz.
RAM: 4GB (DRAM Frequency-666.7 Mhz).
Mobo: ASUS M4A88T-M LE ( 880G chipset= HD4250).

I request some one recommend good GPU in price range of ~$100 ( Rs.6500).


I researched and found these:

A new HD7770 / Radeon R7 250X for a price of Rs.7000

Used HD7770 - Rs.5700

Are the above ones good enough?
 
Solution
yes, it may not be able to do extremely well in games, but is sure worth the price. Of course the more you spend the better a GPU will be, but for a budget cost, the 7770 is a prime choice.

100$ for gaming might not be good enough. If you can spend 150$, go with gtx 750 ti. If you ever want to sli, which I recommend, go with a gtx 650 ti boost. If you can get 200$ to spend for a graphics card, definitely go with a gtx 660. Its better than both 750 ti and 650 ti boost.

Hi LengendOfLich,
I appreciate you taking your time to respond...however,
I am not a gamer. I am not in for spending more than $120 (Rs.7000).
I just wanna game and relax after my hard day work. ...casual gaming!!!
Also....
PSU is seasonic s12ii 520
HD7770 was available locally in Bangalore for Rs.5700 just few hours ago.
It seems it is sold. :-(
anyways...please provide your input on this:
My Mobo is a PCIe 2.0 version...so I was thinking whether should I buy a used HD6770 1GB GDDR5 for Rs.4000 ?
or
Still you think I should stick with HD7770?

Hi all,

I have new input.... GTX560Ti seems to be very much faster than HD7770...
Please help which one to choose in next 24 hours I got to buy....:
Option 1:
Used GTX560Ti 1GB card available for Rs.7000($120), with warranty till June 2014 ( just one more month). Can negotiate with seller and bring it down to Rs.6500($111).
Option 2:
A new HD Radeon 7770 card available for Rs.6500($111) ( after 10% discount on original price of Rs.7250 - SnapDeal - india website for a particular CreditCard). Carries a 2 Years Warranty

Reason for considering 560Ti is because of this performance benchmark:
