I have a really old graphics card the Geforce G210 and it really sucks. So I wanna buy a new one. But i don't have a lot of money and i found a cheap gts 450. My question is will this card be able to run Games like Watch DOGS, AC4, Batman arkham origins COD Ghosts, BF4 and other next gen games at least at medium settings and at a 1024x768 resolution with no lag?

It might be able to handle them at low settings @ 1024x768 at 25fps. I would instead suggest you get a second hand but newer card like a 660ti or a 7870 :) what's your budget?

Well for $100 then I would suggest you get a used GTX460 and then upgrade again in a year or two :) Definitely don't get a gts450 anyway.

Personally I'd say go with the GTX because I've had better experience with nVidia cards. nVidia has better drivers too. Before you install whichever card you get... make sure to uninstall the old drivers completely first :)

i have one and yes go for the gts 450 because i have no problem running even the frostbite 3 engine (battlefield 4) and highest settings and 1080p and 40-60 fps but maybe you should also think of upgrading the the processor and add some ram.

my specs are: gts 450, fx 4130 4.5 GHZ , 8 gb ram 1666mhz

Proof or it didn't happen, because that's impossible.

Also gonna pitch in here to say that it's not possible. No way a gts 450 runs BF4 @ ultra @ 1080p and gets 40-60fps. My 680 hovers at around 60fps on ultra in that game, no possible way a gts450 can. Don't listen to this guy.

Probably doesn't matter though, as this thread is from September. Getting really sick of people bumping such old threads...
