You do run more risk with 2nd hand, as likely there will be a limited or no warranty cover if it breaks. And the fact it's been used means you don't know what condition it will be in, the seller may have overclocked it heavily for an extended period & it could be in need of repair/maintenance i.e new thermal paste. Anyway....

...AMD 7870 (lowest price = $129.99): http://pcpartpicker.com/parts/video-card/#sort=a8&qq=1&c=82,110

The new revision of the AMD 7870 is the R9 270 or overlcocked model, R9 270X.

R9 270/X prices: http://pcpartpicker.com/parts/video-card/#sort=a8&qq=1&c=154,147

R9 270X & AMD 7870 require 24 Amps on the 12v rail & a 500W PSU minimum
