Graphics card

ZeusXI

So my friend wants to play some games on her rig, it has no graphics card right now and she only wants to spend $70-80 USD

She plays minecraft - Geforce 2XX or AMD Radeon 5XXX or higher

Counter Strike: Global Offensive - 1/2GB Graphics ram or higher

All 5 nights at freddies - 1GB Graphics Ram

Alice: Madness returns - 256MB Graphics Ram

 

Which Graphics card should i choose to play all these games no problem, and also maybe a little bit more

You could probably find a 550 ti secondhand, that's what I have on my older rig and it plays skyrim great.

For 80$ the best you can hope for is a 750 Ti. Anything bellow a 750 Ti or R7 260X is not worth.

2nd hand - you can easily get a 7850 or GTX 660

Also,  She wants only 80$ max. and we are playing these low end games. we dont need much of a graphics card here.  1GB Graphics ram for the highest end game she plays, and these games or really low end.

Then you should really look at 2nd hand GPUs. You will get horrible value when buying new
