Which Graphics card should I get?
Hi. I'm planning to buy a Graphics card for my PC. My PC is 1yo and I don't have that much money for a high end or a expensive card.

Here's my PC specs:

AMD A8-5600k
ASRock FM2A55M-VG3
4GB Ram
Thermaltake Litepower 600w BE
Windows 7

I'm looking at HD7730 1gb ddr5 128bit or HD7750 2gb ddr3 128bit.

Which one is better for my current PC?
Or are there any recommendations for another card that's almost equal to the price I've mentioned?

I'm using Cad on my current PC and I can use it fine.

Thanks.

the HD 7730 and 7750 suck in comparison to the GTX 750 and R7 260. check out this benchmark comparison:

(copy and paste the entire URL into the address bar)

while the GTX 750 is a little faster than the R7 260, the R7 260 I linked above is only $75 after rebate. about $30 cheaper than the cheapest GTX 750. and judging from the cards he is looking at, his budget is sub $100. the R7 260 also comes with 2 free games of your choosing. the selection is small, but you can probably find at least 1 game you would be interested in.
