#1 Nvidia GeForce GT 1030

This graphic card is ideal for casual gaming but not very suitable for high-end gaming. It is a fairly old graphic card but still very capable of delivering good performance in titles like CS: GO and Valorant. The 2 GB VRAM on this card can still run most games on medium settings. This card can deliver 30-4- fps in GTA V on medium settings, 70-85 fps in CS: GO on low settings and consistently deliver 90+ fps in Valorant on any graphics preset. This card might be hard to find in the market, but it costs around INR 7,000 making it a good deal.

This GPU is also directed towards casual gaming, but it can run modern games on 720p resolution. It is one of the most popular graphics cards for budget gamers and can offer a good experience in most multiplayer games. The 2 GB VRAM handles most games efficiently on 1080p and if you need a little more fps, you can always lower the resolution. It can be picked up from the market at a price of around INR 9,500. On being paired with 8 GB and Intel Core i3 9th Gen CPU, this card can deliver 60-75 fps in GTA V on high settings, 100+ fps in CS: GO and Valorant, 50+ FPS in CoD WarZone and 80+ fps in PUBG PC Lit.

#3 AMD Radeon RX 550 (4 GB)

This is a modern-day graphics card and will provide good frame rates in any game that you throw at it excluding a few poorly optimized games. It has 4 GB of DDR5 graphics with a clock speed of 6,000 Mhz. You can pair it with an 8 GB RAM and Intel Core i3 9th Gen CPU to get 50+ fps in GTA V on medium settings, CS: GO and Valorant can run consistently on 100+ fps and PUBG PC Lite can run on 60+ fps constantly. This level of performance is delivered by a GPU that costs around INR 9,500 making it a value for money card.

#4 Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 (4 GB)

This GPU is capable of handling any game that you throw at it, any game. 95% of the games available can be run on this GPU. If the game itself is not well optimized then even this card can not do anything about it. This card can deliver more than 60 fps at 1080p resolution in any game. This GPU has currently vanished from the market but if you can get your hands on it, then it can be a very good deal for you. This graphics card can provide 60+ fps in all the games mentioned before.

#5 AMD Radeon RX 570 (4 GB)

This is a high-end gaming budget graphics card that can give a healthy fps count consistently in any game. This GPU costs around the same as the GTX 1650 but the performance gap is huge. It can also be overclocked to churn out slightly extra performance. It is capable of delivering 100+ fps in all the games mentioned above and completely justifies the cost that it comes at.
