I'd take everything on that page with a grain of salt, since the minimum and recommended specs may not be accurate (at least not compared to what is stated in, say, Steam). Also, don't trust the Projected FPS Analysis as it can be _way_ off the mark. For Battleborn it suggests that I can run it @ 1080p Ultra and 30 FPS, when in reality the game is unplayable at anything more than 1176x664 and the lowest possible settings. Even then the FPS varies between 20-40 FPS, making the game very sluggish at times and ruining the experience.

I would look at either a GTX 1060 or a non-reference Radeon RX 480 as best value/$ or if your budget is tight then look at an R7 360 which can be had for cheap now. Do not buy a reference RX 480 at this time as there is a good chance you could have problems with it, non reference designs however have corrected the issues the reference design suffer from.

Thanks, already ran a scanner on machine, which reported the inbuilt Intel HD Graphics as hopelessly inadequate, hence the quest for an appropriate add-on graphics card.

I need a recommendation for a video graphics card to add into my PC. It has an Asrock B75M R2.0 motherboard and both PCIE slots are free. CPU is Intel Core I5-3570. Memory is 8Gb.  I want to be able to play "Ghost of a Tale" (http://www.ghostofatale.com) when it is released, but reading the latest news on that website, my PC with it's integrated graphics just ain't going to cut it.  I also have "Witcher 2" which just will not run on my PC as it is. I have had a bit of a look around the Asrock website and it seems that an AMD Radeon card of some type is supported, but I'm a bit lost now and would really appreciate some advice on what video card to look at.  Many thanks in advance.
