So the title says it all, I am new to pc gaming and doing a budget build so i would like to know whats the best gpu for a AMD Athlon X4 845 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor

btw i play games like:
Overwatch
League of legends
GTAV
Final fantasy games
Call of duty games
and some other mmorpgs
 
Solution
Anything over rx460 or gtx 1050(non ti) would be a severe bottleneck. If you plan of upgrading the CPU as well in the next year you can step higher to gtx 1060 or rx480 , but if you don't then there is no point in going higher than what is said prior.

Solution


drop in a 1050 ti

all the games should run well, except gta5 and MMO's

a lot of MMO's dont really like amd cpu's and gta5 really needs a good cpu to run well

 

ohh ok, and i think ill get a gtx 750 or gtx1050 because i really dont know when i will upgrade.
 


ohh i see, i didn't know this about the MMO's not liking amd cpu's and gta5 needing a better cpu. thanks for your answer.
 


Yes i will make sure to have 8gb of ram. and thanks a lot for your answer.
 
I know I come later but here is one thing in forgot to back up my statement.

As you can see anything over 260x/750ti is becoming bottlenecked by the CPU.
And there isn't much of a difference between 750k and 835k , one half-solution would be OC.
Since you said you aren't buying right then when you posted , I suggest you wait for ryZen CPUs and pick the cheapest 4c4t which rumors at a 150$ price.
If this goes over your budget then going to an Intel g4560-4620 (2c4t , 3.4-3.7ghz) is quite good and offers very good perf. on MMO (close to 6600k , they only begin losing perf in very demanding games).
Note that both of this solutions demand you to change your socket / motherboard , but fm2/am3 are dead for some time anyways.
