Hello everyone!
I am thinking about buying a graphics card for my PC that will be fully compatible with my PC and motherboard; nothing to extreme, for playing GTA V and IV, American Truck Simulator, Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 etc. My budget is within 120 US dollars(something cheaper if possible!). I need a recommendation...

And also, as per the manual on the ASUS website, my motherboard has expansion slots as below:

1 x PCIe 2.0 x16
2 x PCIe 2.0 x1
1 x PCI

So, I'm worried about the cards that use PCI Express 3.0. My full specs are:

Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4460, CPU @ 3.20GHz, with Intel HD Graphics-4600
RAM 8 GB

Thanks in advance guys...

Don’t worry about your PCIe lane being a 2.0. The PCI standard is backward compatible meaning a PCIe 3.0 device will work in a 2.0 slot.

For a graphics card I would suggest either the GTX 1050 or the RX 550. The RX 550 is currently a little bit cheaper ranging from $100 to about $120. The GTX 1050 is about $120 to $140. These prices are brand specific.
