Hi all,

I currently have a gtx 660, but am wanting a newer gpu. $100 is my budget. If I have to I'll go a bit higher like 110 or so. I'm wanting a better gpu than the 660 that doesn't kill the bank. I do not mind if its a few years old and used.

cpu is i7 2600k
and 16 gigs of ram i have
windows 7 pro

Thanks in advance.

I prefer nvidia by the way.

I have new games like black ops 4 but don’t care to play on max settings, at least medium with 60 FPS. I mostly play black ops 1 and 2.

Very difficult to obtain a graphics card at that price point from either AMD or Nvidia. And secondhand is a very fluid market, you may find a bargain card that is previously used or B-grade.

Watch out for how much RAM is on the card. A 2GB graphics card will be cheaper option than a 4 GB card. and a 4GB card would provide better quality.

At the beginning of year 2019 the gforce GTX 1050 is often recommended.

Thanks, I found a 1050 for 95 bucks and I googled videos of it playing my games. I should be set. Thank you all for the help. 1050 it is!
