R7 260X. As good as it gets for Budget 1080p gaming. Though the GTX 750 Ti does do better in some games it is $25-$50 more

performance wise GT545 sits around GT730 performance.

and this is Toms recommendation for cards below 130 (GT730 listed as $75):

GT 545 is roughly the same as GTX 550 ti. Same GF-116 Core only with some SMs and Cache Disabled , and running on a 128 bit bus.... Maybe not the Exact same....... Roughly I would say it can perform similar at resolutions of 1600x900 or less. I would look at some GTX 550 ti Can it run Crysis videos and take away about 5-15% performance, depending on the resolution.
