I currently have a ATI Radeon HD 6570 1 GB DDR3 Video Card, and I was was wondering what I could possibly buy to replace it. I don't really know if the graphics card has to be compatible with anything else. I was just seeing if someone could give me a list of possible graphics card I could buy to replace the one I have.

P.S.- I don't know if the graphics card has to do with anything on the motherboard so just in case this is my current motherboard
Biostar A960D+ Socket AM3+/ AMD 760G/ DDR3/ A&V&GbE/ MicroATX Motherboard

My 750 Ti runs Assassins Creed Unity at 1600x900 at a constant 45-60 FPS on high/ultra settings. It should run GTA V on medium settings at 1366x768.

At under $140(Im assuming USD), you are looking at lower than reccomended...
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: anytime soon would be great

USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: strictly gaming

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)

OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS: about 2 years old, AMD FX 4130 3.8ghz quad core processor AM3+

PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: Newegg.com or any suggested sites




PARTS PREFERENCES: Doesn't matter

OVERCLOCKING: no SLI OR CROSSFIRE: no

MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1920x1080

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Can run all fallout games at ultra high quality

Power Supply 585 watts

Budget $140 and below
 
I've heard good things about the GTX 970. I have had a GTX 750 Ti for the past year. No problems whatsoever. The only issue I have with it is that it doesn't have lights on it like some higher tier ones do. But as others say, Budget, PSU, and CPU specs before we can really help

Would something like this do? It does seem pretty good, but what kind of games could I run? Could it handle games like GTA 5 and other big games like that?

At under $140(Im assuming USD), you are looking at lower than reccomended specs. The recommended GPU is a GTX 660($200), or a MD Radeon HD 7870 2GB($180).

At 140, you are looking at a raedon 7770, or maybe a GTX 750/750 Ti. Also the possibility of a R7 260X.
While none of these cards will get you 1080p on GTA V(at high settings, anyway), they should do fine on a lower res.

This Card specifically should fit the bill. It is refurbished though, but it is $125. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487118&cm_re=750_Ti-_-14-487-118-_-Product
This one is $139.99, and is practically identical to the next, except in has only ONE DVI port. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127784&cm_re=750_Ti-_-14-127-784-_-Product

This one is not refurbished, And more expensive(at $150), and has TWO DVI, other that that, practically the same as the one above. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121855&cm_re=750_Ti-_-14-121-855-_-Product
