What is the suitable GC under £60?
Here is my cpu spec :

Power Supply : 500W
Motherboard : Asus A88XM-A (HDMI)
CPU : AMD FM2 A8 6600K APU Quad Core CPU 3.9Ghz
Hard Drive : 1TB Sata 6Gb/s Hard Drive
Memory : 8GB DDR3
Graphics Card : ATI 8570D

I would like to play games such as PES 2014, FIFA 2014. That I need to buy for DDR3 or DDR5?
Is there any suggestion with my tight budget.

Thanks.

For Just cause 2 have you tried verifying the integrity of the game cache using steam?

For PES, you could try allocating a little more shared memory to the GPU side (i believe the default is 512mb, try it at 768mb). But if you are going to get a dedicated GPU then the R7 250 or HD7770 would be best for your budget, you might be able to go a little better if you go used (i.e. ebay) but that's your decision. Any card mentioned should be a nice little performance boost.

Used 650 Ti Boost 2Gb. I managed to grab one on ebay for a friend for £60 inc delivery from ebay.

the APU should be able to play those games already but if you want a dedicated graphic card (which, of course, is highly recommended) for that budget i'd go with a R7 250. great pair for that build and you won't have to worry about bottlenecks. GDDR3 or GDDR5 versions for that card are fine. getting GDDR5 is better (faster) of course but you may have to spend more

Your current setup should be able to play those games, are you having trouble with them?
