Best gpu for under 100?

[jeffersonpain]

Hello,
i would like to buy a new video card for my son fr\or his birthday, he wants a card that can run bf3 on med-high settings, is there a video card under 100 for my son?
Thanks
ps. i am using a 1280x1024 monitor so this should clear things up.
Is this good enough?

No that card would not cut it.You need to get him a 7770GHz at the bare minimal he wants to play on ultra settings trust me lol.No seriously he could game on low to mid settings with 7750.

The Radeon 7750 is a good upgrade card for any PC.

It doesn't need a pcie-power from the power supply so you wouldn't need to upgrade it and the 7750 can run pc games very well with the monitors' native resolution.

Don't tell her that bs read her question i would like to buy a new video card my son fr\or his birthday, he wants a card that can run bf3 on med-high settings, is there a video card under 100 for my son?
Thanks we need to help her find a 7770 i know a 7750 will not play BF3 on high settings without some tweaks.

The OP has a 1280x1024 resolution monitor which needs a lot less graphics processing performance.

And we don't know what power supply it has, it may well be an oem psu with no pcie power connectors and low efficiency.

I've run an old sub 75watt 9800 gt in 1680x1050 native resolution until this november.
