So my budget is 70 bucks and was wanting some advice on what is good for gaming!!

I recently purchased a Bio star 760g socket am3 mATX motherboard and a AMD phenom X3 2.3 triple-cor cpu!!

What video card would be the best for this machine? I am currently running on board video and really wanting better lol.
 
What size power supply do you have? If it's a good quality unit at least 300W you have some decent choices for a lower end card.
 
you have the PSU issue that JMMD addressed, but these are the absolute best cards you can get for that money... If you can buy from newegg

The 5750 is the best of the lot if you can find it at that price where you are located.

That is solely dependent on what components you have running. The quality and age of the PSU are huge factors as well. I don't see your specs listed, but you can go here and enter your specs. It will give you a general idea of how much PSU you need
