Hello,
This is my first post ever here. But I used this forums when I was building my first PC back in 2015. Anyway the graphics card just died, it was an msi radeon r9 270x. So now I am looking to buy a new graphics card which will be compatible with this motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H97M-D3H

I don't want a high end graphics card. It can be just a beginner one and the bare minimum to run gta 5 and cod with good enough graphics. I just don't have enough time like I had in 2015 and I don't want to spend too much on it.


APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: This week
BUDGET: $50 to $100.
USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Gaming
CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: msi radeon r9 270x / Corsair VS650 650 Watt PSU
OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS: 8GB DDR3 1866MHz CL10 DIMM / Intel 3.1 Ghz Lga 1150 I5 4440
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: Amazon.in /Flipkart.com (India)
PARTS PREFERENCES: No preferences
OVERCLOCKING: No
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: Maybe

RX 570 is more than 150 usd here. Are there any cheaper ones which I can go for? What about NVIDIA?
Also how do you know if a specific graphics card is compatible with my motherboard?
