Best $50 discrete graphics card?? Help!

[Ruppe]

Looking for the best $50 discrete graphics card. I'm helping my friend build a $300 pc.

Whats he plan to do with it? I'm thinking a used GTX 460 from ebay is the way to go. Performs around a 7770.

He will be playing games on it. Mostly games like Dayz, but maybe battlefield or cod at medium settings.

The best you can do with $50 new, is a GT 620. Not much of a gaming card for anything above 1024x768. What size PSU does he have? Resolution of his monitor?

GT 610 is not gaming card at all, in fact, even a GT 640 which was released in 2012 is weaker than 8800 GT from 2007 (despite being dx11).

If you are looking for a gaming card, try getting a used one (low budget), preferably named GTX and being x50-x80 (x being number of series, e.g. 650, 780...).

Forget the discrete graphics card and go for an APU.
