Help me decide what graphics card to buy!

[mr. pedophile]

So I should upgrade my power supply first, then get a better video card? Anything else I should do?

get a 7770, same thing as jacksaunt said but the one in the link has way better reviews so go with that one

it also comes with farcry 3

I have this card which plays all the games I have on max except for Arma 3, which plays on High. It also runs BL with shaders/physics maxed out on some thousand (I got 44,000+ and 30FPS+)
Great card, I suggest for any entry level gamer.

Motherboard, cpu. You're going to bottleneck your graphics by quite a bit.

So, what order should I do this in?

At the moment, I've only got ~120 dollars, but I'm possibly going to get a summer job once my school is over.

You get an Athlon II X4 processor, and buy a motherboard that supports that socket (AM3), preferrably this, (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131795 [assuming you have a micro atx formfactor]). Buy a PSU, (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139028), and then get a GPU (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161402)

Step 1: Put CPU in mobo (this is the easiest part)

Step 2: Stick GPU in

Step 2: Put power supply in case

Step 3: Put stand-offs in the case

Step 4: Screw mobo onto stand-offs (be very careful when screwdriving around mobo parts)

Step 5: Check to see if it runs properly.

You're basically building a new computer, you're just reusing the hdd and disc drive really. That case is probably stuff and can't fit anything normal sized and has like 0 airflow.

assuming you have a micro atx formfactor

micro atx fits in any modern case, in full atx, mid atx, atx, micro atx

just fyi
