APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: (e.g.: this week (the closer the better))
This week
BUDGET RANGE: (e.g.: USD $150-250) Before / After Rebates
$200-$400
Maybe a teeny bit over $400
USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: (e.g.: Gaming [and what games you want it to play - a card for WoW only will be much different than one for Crysis 3 or Bioshock Infinite at full settings], Folding@Home, home theater/watching movies, Adobe Creative Suite 5/6, Autodesk Architectural Suite 2014, etc )
Gaming, schooling. Games would be Call of Duty, Battlefield, Sims 4, the new Harry Potter game.
CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: (e.g., EVGA Geforce GTX 560TI and Rosewill Hive 650W PSU - without this info, it's really hard to help you)
I bought a pre-built gaming PC by CLX Gaming from a friend but the GPU was sold to someone else. So this had a Geforce RTX 3070 Ti. PSU - 750W PSU HELIOS P2 GOLD
OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS: (e.g., make/model of CPU, MoBo, memory - this can help us determine whether or not a given card is compatible with and makes sense for your system. For high-end cards, knowing your case/cooling setup may also be helpful)

If you do not know of a store for your country this thread will point you in the right direction: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-1643019/guide-international-users-links-part-stores.html
Tom's Hardware gets users from literally all over the world. Knowing the pricing and availability of parts relative to where you live will help us (the community) to help you (the original poster) better.
PARTS PREFERENCES: (e.g., if you will only use AMD cards, want PhysX card, prefer XFX cards over Sapphire cards, etc., tell us)
Prefer AMD
OVERCLOCKING: Yes / No / Maybe
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: Yes / No / Maybe
No to both of those because I'm not sure what they are
MONITOR RESOLUTION: (e.g.: 1024x768, 1280x1024, 1440x900, 1600x1200, 1680x1050, 1920x1080, 1920x1200)
I'm not exactly sure. I've never booted the computer myself.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: (e.g.: Need to have better than stock cooling; Want a card with a lifetime warranty; Must run Crysis 3 with full AA on a three-display setup, etc.)
If you need any more information please leave a comment and I'll explain the best I can!
REMEMBER: The more information we have about your system, your budget, and what you're using the card for, the better the advice we can give you - providing it up front gets you your answers and puts a card in your hands that much faster!
