Im looking for a graphics card that is $100-$170. That was built for gaming. Im trying to run DayZ Standalone on atleast medium-high settings. Any suggestions
-Thanks

I've seen deals on HD7870s that have put them in that range. You should get High or better out of it on most games.

I would suggest a Radeon R9 270X at the high end of that range. For the middle of the price range, I would recommend a GTX 750 Ti .

Well the Radeons have bad drivers dont they?+

Personally I would agree that the Nvidia drivers tend to be better.

But Nvidia has had their problems with drivers too.

The GTX750ti runs extremely cool anyway, if you go with one of those I wouldn't bother going above this one and saving a few dollars.

But if you don't mind spending just a little more you can get this one, which I've had for about a year now and on most games I'm able to run Ultra at 1080p, but without maxed AA/AF or supersampling on. Plus they're giving free Watchdogs with it.

Also depends on your power supply. 750ti uses about 60w, 660 uses about double.

I would recommend this one. It is even cheaper, on sale $139.99 after rebate.
