Looking for budget graphic card compatible for 775 board and above

[Min Naing Oo]

I've been using GeForce 8400gs and the fan stopped working after I cleaned up my PC. I'm looking for fan replacement and even the fan alone is 10$. So I'm thinking that I would just replace the card instead.

I don't play game a lot. sometime gta san andreas, need for speed most wanted. And photo editing by photoshop. I'm using windows 8.1 pro.

Now my board is Asus P5KPL-AM/PS which is 775 with Core 2 Duo 3.2GHz, 2GB RAM. I will upgrade my board and CPU to intel i series compatible board next year. I'm looking for graphic card which will compatible for both current 775 board and future. Can you please suggest me the budget graphic cards I should consider?
(I know my English is terrible. Sorry)

Edit: My budget limit is < 100$..

I've said it a lot on a lot of other posts, but I still feel that the GTX 760 is the best budget card you can get. It will be bottlenecked by the rest of your machine, but if you upgrade your MB, RAM, and CPU at a later date then it'll still be a awesome card. If you want to spend a bit more then the 770 is a better option. If you want to spend less then a 750 is great.

What we really need to know is your PSU. That will go towards deciding on what GPU you can currently get without having to upgrade the PSU as well.

If you arent willing to spend more than $100 then your options are:
GTX 650 if you can find one on sale
if not, GT 640 is a cheaper option ~$80 and at the $100 mark there is the Radeon HD 7770 or R7 250
the GT 640 is mainly for 720p gaming and 1080p on older less demanding games
The Radeon HD 7770 or R7 250 can play some games at 1080p but with lowered settings.

However my suggestion is to spend a bit more and aim for a better graphics card. seeing as you plan to upgrade, there is no point in buying a mediocre graphics card only to need to replace it shortly after. May as well buy a good one which can last you 3+ years, else you end up wasting $100 on something you will only be using as a temporary fix.

As Jake mentioned the GTX 760 is a good bang for the buck performance card out there priced at around $250; consider it a future investment.

Hope this helps!

With that budget, i would say just keep saving up for a better card if you can. If not, then maybe consider an r7 250 or a GTX 650 if you can find one for <100$
