Hi guys this is the old cpu from my ancient pc which i gave to my dad and build him some pc that he can be on so i need a best gpu that this cpu can run without a bottleneck.

AMD R9 270, should cost about $140 to $150

i think of that too but i got a 7770 in that old build and it was bottlenecking that gpu.7770 worked on like 45% while gaming

1600x900 is pretty low; you can get AMD R7 265, should be more than enough
