  If your looking for cheap graphics card that can play high end games then defenitely you go for amd ati cards. they are much cheaper than nvidia.

  amd ati r7 260 or higher models. just make sure you have decent power supply.

  if you dont have a good PSU pwede pumalya. Anything could happen from random lock ups, random reboots, refusal to boot, graphical glitches, to exploding PSU. Actually even if low end vid card pwede mangyari ang above
  
  what is your current PSU? make, model and wattage

  Ideally you should get a true-rated PSU with 400W or higher. A 400W/500W true-rated PSU usually cost around 2k to 4k.
