I am primarily looking for a card to run DayZ SA on as high graphics as possible, possibly less than $200. I don't have the money but my birthday is coming up so I am looking for a card to buy with my birth-day money. My PC specs:

ASUS CM1745

OS: Windows 8

Processor: AMD A8-5500 APU (Quad Core) 3.2GHz with AMD Radeon HD 7560d <--- I'll be getting rid of that

1TB Storage

14 GB of DDR3 RAM

35 W Peak Power Supply

Not too sure about the rest of the specs, I only know the basic stuff. :p

You will be unable to make this upgrade.

1. The cpu you want is AM3+ and the current one is FM2.
2. Your current CPU integrates a video card and the new ones does not.

You didn't link a GPU at all. There are no graphics built into the FX processor and it won't fit in your motherboard.

I can't tell what power supply you have because it isn't "35w" but grab something like an r9 270x or GTX660 for about $170. Post the brand and model of you power supply and I'll let you know if it will work with one of them.

How strong a card you can run is determined by how strong your power supply is.
35w is inadequate for anything, perhaps you mean 350w.
The HD 7560d is the integrated graphics for the apu. you can't get rid of it.
You could add a second similar card like a 6670 and try crossfire.

Or, about the strongest card you can use with a 350w psu is a GTX750ti, a %140 card.

Your initial link included a FX-8350 cpu. That is not a permissible upgrade.

One buys a apu for what it is. ... forever. Upgrade options are lousy.
