I'm looking to buy a graphics card soon and need help picking one. I don't have much to spend on it so the cheapest would be great. I would like to be able to run Day'z and some other games like Mine-craft, battlefield. I don't really mind what the graphics look like as long as it plays smooth. any suggestions? please keep in mind that i don't have a lot to spend.

Yes, it will run it, but to have a bit more GPU horsepower, I would save up the few bucks more needed to get the AMD 270X and you will be more happy with that purchase, a little patience really pays off my friend. The reason I say to go for the AMD 270x is that you will be able to play all modern games on High to Ultra settings especially if you plan on playing Battlefield, Skyrim with ENB mods, Dragon Age Inquisition and such will benefit much more from the 270x vs the slower 260x if you are gaming at 1080p.

For example, you can play Batllefield 4 on Ultra settings as 1080p at a comfortable 40+ FPS (55 FPS average) at all times with a few dips into the 30's here and there when playing 64 player conquest matches.

Save up a bit more, don't be in a hurry, it really pays off when you save up and have that sweet card that can play all of your games the way you want them for the most part.

If the AMD 270X is a bit too much, the the AMD 270 is the card I would go as it's cheaper to play on High to Ultra with a few settings ticked lower and you will have a much better gaming experience than the 260X.
