Hi, i'm doing my second build. Felt like i could use a little more power, so i went digging around and found this: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202152 . I really just know the basics, so I'm wondering if this card is really to good to be true. I'm building for my dad, so it doesn't need to be the best of the best, but i want to make sure it'll last a god length of time before it's time for an upgrade.

R7 370 is decent, around a GTX 950 and plays most games medium-high settings at decent frame rates. It may even be overkill for your dad but if it is used in a basic system, with basic gaming, it shoild last a fair amount of time.
