I am buying this PC build ( P.S. I will be happy with playing GTA V/FIFA 15 at med settings 30FPS + I am on budget)

 

#CPU - AMD FX 4300 3.8GHz Quad-Core

#RAM - Kingston 8GB 1600MHz

#MOBO - GIGABYTE GA-USB3-78LMT AM3

#PSU - 450watt

 

So,I wanna find a GPU that is at maximum 100€ and that will perform solidly with these specs.

I was thinking about a R9 260X,any better suggestions?

Probably go for an AMD card because of the price r9 270so are going to drop in price due to the release of the 3xx series

Yes,I am actually thinking of buying the card in about 5-6 months,because at the moment I'm not the best with money.

So,I guess I'll get R7 260X in like a half a year and get everything else (Motherboard & RAM) now...

In 5-6 months the r7-260x will most likely be obsolete besides second hand, if you are purchasing it in 5-6 months you are likely better off saving up and buying a r7 360/ r9 370

Yes I know i will probably go then for a R9 270X but as i said i am limited and will be limited to around 100€

Unless you are making a crazy expensive build it is better to wait until you are ready to buy before thinking about what your going to put in it. But if you were going to buy now please don't get an FX CPU.

 

Get an i3 4350 or if not too much more expensive the cheapest i5

Cheapest reputable brand (ASUS, Asrock, MSI, Gigabyte, etc) H97 motherboard

Cheapest 8GB kit of RAM

Since the cost of power supplies varies a lot from region to region try to get something from Cosair, EVGA, Silverstone, Antec, Fractal Design or Zalman with at least 450watts. Also for the best building experience get something semi/full modular. The modular PSUs also tend to be better quality than non-modular.
