I am planning on building a budget gaming pc for $800-$900 and i have all the figured out all the parts except for the graphics card. I have looked at the msi r9 280(without the X,) but i am not sure if that would be a good pair with the i5-4440. Is there any better graphics card that is better than the msi r9 280 at a price point of nothing more than $200?

R9 280 is pretty good for that price.

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

Yep, 280 is fine. And anything will do. That cpu can handle about anything you throw at it :)
