My GTX 630 is broken after a power surge that mysteriously left the rest of my PC intact, and I have a ~$100 budget to find a comparable card. My only requirements apart from price are that it runs off the PCI's power and had at least one DVI-I port and one HDMI port, because I run Dual HD monitors. AMD and Nvidia cards are both welcome.

 

Additionally: Would it be better to sell my PC w/ a i7-3770 (non k) while the 3770 still sells for a decent price or should this CPU plus a new GPU last me through college? I'm a High School Junior now, so lifetime of 6+ years playing medium-demanding games such as War Thunder.

 

Personal experiences appreciated!

save your money and get like a GTX 750 or a better a GTX 750ti for $150. Anything below that isnt worth getting. I believe they have versions that run off the PCI-E only.

what about saving up more money for a proper GPU? any GPU under $100 is not worth buying IMO

Yeah just save any thing under a 750ti is not worth it

 Thanks for the feedback, so in your opinion what card should I get sub-200$?

Look at the old gen like @BirdyTheMighty said look at the 760 the and counter part probably a 270x maybe

Anyways those stuff are heavily discounted http://www.amazon.com/MSI-R9-270X-DisplayPort-PCI-Express/dp/B00FR6XP6I/ref=zg_bs_284822_18 this is a great card

CSGO FOR KNIFE!

Ok, looks like I'll be running the ASUS GTX 750 TI OC -

and I'll have to get a new power supply for the 6-pin power - HP power supplies have no PCI-E or Molex power connectors. AT. ALL. -  I'm probably getting the EVGA 500 watt.

Thanks for responding, I probably wouldn't have found this ASUS GTX 750TI on my own.
