Currently the game says the capabilities of my PC are 0.5 stars lol.

I went to Can You Run It? and apparently the only thing I don't have in the "recommended" category is an appropriate graphics card.

The card should be between 150-200 dollars.

Thanks in advance.

i would need to know the specs of your computer so i can recommend a compatible card, minimum system requirements are here, http://www.footballmanager.com/manual/fm2016/introduction/system-requirements. Are there other games you want to play or is it just fm?

Not really, it's just FM, for other games I have an Xbox One. However I do play a lot of FM when not at work, so I think a good graphics card would enhance the experience.

My specs:
Intel Core i3 @3.07 GHz
4 GB RAM
Windows 7 32 bit

My current card is an AMD Radeon HD 5450

have a look at the gtx 1050 cards that just came out, they come in 2gb and 4gb models, it will easily handle fm plus you can play lots of other games with it, i would recommend a 4gb one. here are some of them on newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&IsNodeId=1&N=100007709%20601273511%20601273503 i would also suggest getting some more ram to go with it...

yeah a 1050 can easily handle fm17 on high, its not a graphically demanding game. gtx 1050 can run all the latest games so fm17 will be a piece of cake. you can have a look at a review and benchmarks for the 1050 ti 4gb here, bear in mind that the msi 1050 ti is the strongest 1050 on the market as far as i am aware, hence the higher price compared to the others: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2016-nvidia-geforce-gtx-1050-ti-review those fps numbers are on ultra or very high settings, you can improve the fps in those games by lowering the graphics a bit, but you won't need to do that with fm, just with the most graphically demanding games. if you want to play the most demanding games on ultra with a smooth 60+ fps you'll need at least a 1060 or another similarly powerful card, but for fm it won't be a problem...
