DEAR FRNDZ,

WHICH GRAPHICS CARD IS GOOD TO PLAY GTA 4,TESTDRIVE UNLIMITED 2, FIFA/PES13 etc....
MYBUDGET IS $110.. HOW ABOUT RADEON HD 7750 AND NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX550 Ti..
YOU CAN SUGGEST ME OTHER CARDS UNDER $110.. PLEASE HELP..WILL PCI 3.0 x16 WORK ON PCI 2.0 x16?

Radeon 7750 would be my pick, Its as fast or faster than the 550ti, but doesn't require extra power so its very power efficient, and small.
And yes Pci-e 3.0 cards work on 2.0 slots just fine.

You'd do better to say what you need in your subject and stop using the Caps Lock constantly. If you make it easier for us, we're more likely to help. As far as giving you suggestions, we'll need you to answer some questions in order to give you a well-informed recommendation.

Here's a decent place to (very generally) compare cards: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107-7.html

I'm really not a fan of the GTX 550 Ti. If you can find a 256-bit GTX 460, that would do better. Or, especially, a 6850 at that price.

This is another good place to compare graphics cards: http://www.anandtech.com/bench/GPU12/372

Also, what's your PSU model and your CPU?

The PCI-e 2.0 won't be a problem.

The 6850 for $120 is much more powerful: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150573
