Keep the R9 390. Buy $100 card isn't gonna be significantly better than what he's using.

You could have left that out and it would have made no difference in our recommendations

 

So my recommendation is to do absolutely nothing because going by what you have said, your friend did not seem to have asked for a new graphics card

 

If he did, you might want to research how much you can realisticly get for selling his R9 390. And then factor that into the purchase budget. Sell the 390 after he gets the new card, to recoup the extra that you added for the purchase.

 

As for what you can get for $x on the used market, I wont be able to help. Good luck
