Hey guys I need your help I've been looking at upgrading my computer and I was looking at some graphics cards but I need some help on what is a good one to play Minecraft nice and smooth 60+ fps and good render distance, my budget is kind of low but around 70$-100$ I am aslo aware I'm most likely going to have to upgrade my power supply too. Please help!
 
Solution
Ram should help.
The 7770 and its r7 counterpart are strong entry level cards. They will run MC well, most newer games they might struggle quite a bit.

Could you link the card, and right now my power supply is only (not sure but)280 or something like that but I'm not sure but its around that and how much is the card and does it run Minecraft smoothly?

I'm not sure if you can link it, however the card I think is on ASUS's website and it retails between $80-$100 and can run minecraft at 60-100 FPS on medium to high ish settings, it can do 15-30 maxed

Try the GT 610, it's capable of playing battlefield 3 and is a very decent price, with a smooth clock speed, it's a well rounded card and is still in stock on newegg
