Hi guys .I am new so please forgive me for anything wrong . I have a AMD FX 6300 3.5 GHZ
I have gigabyte 78lmt usb 3 rev 6 mobo . I currently own a Nvidia 210 (which of course i am going to sell ) . I have 4gb of corsair vengance ram , which i am going to upgrade to 8 gbs. I also have a circle 500 watt psu .
i want to know the suitable graphics card for playing games at medium-high settings . Another question is , buying second-hand graphic is worth it or not ? I have got a NVIDIA ZOTAC GTX 750 TI FOR 6800 INR & NVIDIA GTX 550 TI FOR 5000 INR & AMD SAPPHIRE 7750 GDDR5 1GB FOR 6000 INR
THANKS FOR ALL THE ANSWERS .
 
Buying a 2nd hand gpu is fine as long as you are certain that it works/is in good condition.

Tbh with the fx 6300 bottlenecking isnt a HUGE issue, I had a FX 6300 a while back with a r9 280 and that worked pretty well, just bottlenecked on a couple games but not much at all.

I would reccomend getting a r9 270x, or a r7 370. Both very good performance and will have no problem playing games at high settings 1080p.

Also what is your exact PSU? I take it thats a pre built system because alot of the time they use ghetto PSU's in order to save money. If I was you I would upgrade that PSU to something like a 500w Corsair, or a EVGA Supernova.
 
Out of the ones you posted the 750 ti is the best of them 2 gpus is not worth is the driver problems and microstutter you get in some games is really annoying and your 500w psu wouldn't hold a crossfire or sli anyways allways stick to best gpu you can afford
 

The second-hand cards you have as options seems a little expensive compared to european prices, don't know how it compares to price level in India. To get the performance that you want for a little longer than just today, I personally would opt for something like a ASUS GeForce GTX 950 OC, maybe STRIX-version or perhaps a MSI GeForce GTX 960 OC, whichever you can get at the best price... In Europe these cards are in the same price bracket. However, the cost of these cards are more than double-up on your second-hand options. The cards I mention here are quite power-friendly and deliver performance in about the same class as the old GTX 580, give and take! And that was a fast card and still capable today. I recently sold my ASUS GTX 580 DirectCU II 1.5GB for about the cost of the second-hand options you have at hand and it would outperform all of them any day! But when jumping to the NVIDIA 900-series, it's performance is about GTX 950/960-ish. On medium/high settings @ 1080P you would be fine for some time to come with these cards.

Best Regards,

 
I think that for the FX 6300, The best Graphics card is either the GTX 960 or the R9 380. A GTX 970 would also be possible and an R9 390, but chances of slowing down the GPU is bigger. Overclocking the CPU might help though, But stay at the R9 380 and GTX 960 range. If wanting to go above just get an i5 or i7. And for the second hand graphics cards, make sure that they are in good condition. If possible test it out first. In the list of used cards that you have, I would get the GTX 750Ti
 

I have 500 w circle raw power PSU/SMPS.
