Looking for a new graphics card and was wondering what the best is for the price. I would spend anywhere from 50-100$ and am looking for something that could play games at 720p medium-high or 1080p-low-med

I do not care if the card is used im just looking for a card that typically sells for a good price and preforms good

Rig:
Athlon x4 860k
R7 250 2GB
8gb ddr3 1600mhz
250gb hdd
MSI a68hm GRENADE mobo
Cougar MX200 Case


Thanks!

@chalky16 - if you find any 1050 ti's new for $100 point me to them & I'll buy the lot.
$125 is the cheapest I've ever seen any on offers that come & go very irregularly
The RX 460 & gtx 1050 will do 720p high or 1080p low- medium.

460s go for $80-85 , 1050s ,$95-100.

Under under $100 second hand & better than those ??
R9 280x, R9 380 , gtx 770 if you're lucky enough.

They'll still do high settings at 1080p at a push.

Need a good PSU for those cards though , 6+8 pin PCI express connectors required.

1050 not a 1050 ti - it is a good price though & they are ok cards.
A lot weaker than a ti verison though.

At 720p medium settings on the games you play, if you use MSI Afterburner or something to monitor CPU and GPU usage, what does it look like? Do you still have plenty of CPU power to spare?

I ask because if your CPU use is high with the 250, then you might not gain much from a new card.
