Any suggestions on a GPU for under $150? I will be using the computer to do office type work (ie. spreadsheets, word documents powerpoints), not gaming.

Thanks

You can easily get a 1050 Ti with less than 150$ and you can even game with it. It's a very good and balanced card which if you decide to game a bit, would handle things very good. If you are not interested in gaming AT ALL, then I would suggest a 1050 or from AMD a 550

You don't need discrete gpu for that. Integrated one will do it just fine.
If your pc doesn't have iGPU, then any cheapest discrete GPU will also do.
Like:
AMD R5 230 or
Nvidia GT 710
 
I will add that people are not joking when they recommend cards for non gaming use. That is, be aware you will not be able to change your mind later and game on them.

I mention this because I've helped more than one person build a non gaming PC, only to have them get mad at me later because the computer 'doesn't work'. And it turns out they're trying to run a game on it.
