I wanna buy this videocard for gaming on 1280x1024 resolution(just a little more than HD) on High(and if it's possible-for ultra) settings in next games: Gta V,Battlefield 4,SW:Battlefront and others) How do you think,can this videocard deal with it,or can't ?

I have about 125$ to buy

No. R7 360 is a mid-range to low-end card. You would probably be able to run those games on low, with a reasonable FPS. If you want to get better performance and higher quality settings, it's probably worth investing in the newer RX series cards, most notably the RX 460 or RX 470, at 100 and 150$ respectively.
 
Wait a while as AMD will be releasing their new budget cards soon. Specifically, if you can save up another 25$ you'll be able to afford an Rx 470 which should be more than capable of running any game at ultra settings at that resolution (should be able to run any game even at 1080p as well). This would be a much better option than going for the last-gen R7 360.
