Well I am looking to build a maximum $500 gaming pc, and looking to play games like battlefield 4 and Day Z. These games do not have to be on super high settings, but high settings at 45+ FPS is good. I am trying to decide between a Gigabyte windforce GTX 750ti, an asus R7 260x, an EVGA geforce GTX 750TI ftw Edition or a GTX 650ti boost. All of these cards should give me good playable frame rates, so suggestions? I would pair these with an I3-4160 which is a good processor for the price! Any suggestions are welcome, Thanks! ^_^
Decision on GPU... Help!

Yep the CPU and GPU are good enough for those settings. I'd go with EVGA 750 Ti FTW, its a great card for the price, and will deliver seemlessly, EVGA cards tend to be great on cooling and OCing too! Wise choice on CPU, the build shall be good for the job

either one would be good. I think the 260 is more powerful but the 750ti is more energy efficient and runs cooler.
Sweet guys, thanks. I believe going with the FTW 750 ti is the best solution here as well. The benchmarks are very impressive for the price point! I am only a teen with no job so my budget of $500 is the absolute max! Are their any other cards you guys would suggest close to these prices? R9 270x, etc.

750 Ti is for $130 on Newegg, 270X is $170, I'm not sure if you can afford the price difference. Anyways, relative to performance, it goes like this:
R7 260<GTX 750< R7 260X< GTX 750 Ti< R7 265< R9 270< R9 270X. 2GB DDR5 is what you should get with any of them. 750 Ti is the sweet spot for high settings gaming, and 270X is for ultra settings gaming, with around 40 FPS.

Thanks everyone, it seems I'll either go with the 750 ti ftw or the R9 270x. I will only go with the 270x if money permits when I get around to actually buying all of the parts. I am looking to build it around black Friday which should also give me good deals on peripherals as well as some computer parts! ^_^
