I have recently downloaded CS:GO for my HP a4311f and when I first ran the game it gave me an error message saying "your graphics hardware is unsupported for this game". I am able to run the game, but its lags a lot even on the lowest graphics setting. I am wondering what would be a good graphics card for me to get that is less than 90$(if possible).I currently have NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 onboard graphics and my computer has an available PCI EXpress x16 slot(i think that its 2.0). My current psu is stock and 250w, but I can upgrade if needed. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

It is not a gaming card. My guess is you will be able to run cs:go at 1920x1080 in medium detail at 50 to 60 fps. However, any other games will run like crap, especially AAA titles (BF4, Crysis 3). According to Nvidia, you will need a 300W power supply for this card, although you may be able to get away with 250W (not guaranteed though).

A GTX 760 would be overkill and too expensive. An R9 270 would be just right and you wouldn't have to break the bank. You will need a new power supply (500W).

That's still a little much and my computer cant take a PCI Express x16 3.0 card anyway. Anything else that would be 2.0 and less than 100$ please?

Okaaayyyy... nothing yet I guess?
What about this card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127752 Would it work?

Thanks man!
I dont need it to be amazing or anything so that is good news that it will run it okay at 1920x1080
I also am not planning on playing any very graphic intense games like Battlefield or Crysis so I think it'll work
I bought the card along with a new Corsair 450w PSU because my old one(during the time that this thread has been up lol)has failed once and it should also allow me to get a better graphics card if I do decide to play those types of games :)
