I can overclock my gpu. I FORGOT to mention. Should I overclock gpu? if so, how should I overclock my gpu?
My EVGA 650ti boost 2gb was around $160 and I play on max settings, no postfx. My CPU bottlenecks my GPU so maybe you could see if your CPU stays cool enough that you could try to overclock it to maybe 3.6GHz or so? (Or push it as far as you can.)
what about amd r7 250? It sounds like a good deal. Here are the specs for the r7 250.

Depends on how much it costs, since HWCompare says my 650ti is quite a bit better: http://www.hwcompare.com/15317/geforce-gtx-650-ti-2gb-vs-radeon-r7-250/
I would! It's a hell of a card! As a speak, my brother is playing Sleeping Dogs at 1920x1080 with maxed out settings with 2 of those bad boys (Actually they are HD7850 but the R7 260 is the exact same card, rebranded) at 70+ fps! (Since they scale perfectly it's about 35+ fps with a single card, and that's in a very very demanding game!) Edit: Actually the HD7850 is slightly better than the R7 260X but close enough for the comparison
Ok I Will get the 260x but my cpu is kind of... you know. Its a 2.8 gtz quad core phenom and I CANT overclock it. What should I do? - - - Updated - - - Im talking about the r7 260x. Not the 240.
It's not too bad, you will only suffer a bit in a game like BeamNG, any other game won't need a powerful CPU. Maybe in 2 years you can upgrade? Then you will be fine
