GPU Buying Guide - (Read first post)

Hey, I need to pick up a new GPU. My current one is struggling and it’s driving me crazy having to crank everything down to low settings just to get it to run without constant stuttering. 😁
Here's what I'm running:
Budget is maybe $500$200 max... I've managed to play most things on this card if I keep settings at low, but I've been playing Assassin's Creed for a while now and finally hit Black Flag. It's barely playable. It stutters constantly, and playing on all low settings just looks terrible... it's not fun. 😁
So, looking for some advice... 🙂
