Good evening EVGA forums.
I hope everyone is having a great day. So I'm currently looking to buy a graphics card for my sons first build. Nothing too flashy. I have a budget of about $200-250. I don't mind buying used. 

What do you guys recommend for a used graphics card with a budget of $250-200? This will be for gaming @ 1080p-1440p. Thanks! 

Are you trying to buy used or new? Your question can bring multiple answers.

I apologize for posting in the wrong section. I forgot to specify: I am looking to buy used. Budget is $250-200 for 1080p gaming (possibly 1440p max).
As far as games... I'm not too sure what people are playing nowadays, I just want to get the "best bang for your buck" graphics card at that price range. EVGA Nvidia only :). (I will forever only buy EVGA)
 
I'm not really up to date with computer hardware so I'm not too familiar with what I can get with that price range. Thanks!

Not a good time to be in the used market, nothing's a good value and even old 1000-series Pascal parts are so old they won't have warranties anymore, but those aren't easy to find either. 
 
Basically it's going to come down to what you can find locally at a fair price, so anything I could recommend isn't going to matter sorry!

The problem right now is lack of new GPUs. That has caused the prices of used graphics cards to skyrocket. 

Honestly, is waiting an option? My recommendation would be save that GPU money for now and buy a copy of Hades (probably the #1 game of 2020) instead. 
It will run perfectly at 1440p on any modern intel iGPU (I can vouch for the UHD630 on 8th gen i5/i7). I don't really know AMD but the same is probably true for their APUs.

You could always join the notify list for a card. It seems like used prices though have shot up recently so I probably would avoid used.

Honestly, $250 isn't going to get you ANYTHING.

If you've got an Intel i7 6700K, you're probably just better off going with the IGP (Integrated Graphics Processor) for right now.
Then, if you get lucky to pick something up down the road, or the market regains some semblance of sanity, you can pick up a better graphics accelerator.

If you wanna get 30 series (but impossible to get right now), consider 3060 or 3060 ti.

Truthfully, in the current market, you won't find anything that will handle 1080p/1440p gaming in your budget. Even used cards are being scalped way beyond market. Your best bet is to look locally. With nvidia cards, the last 2 numbers of the card roughly indicates its performance, while the first 1-2 numbers indicate the card series. I.e. a 3070 is of the newest series (30 series) and it offers good middle-tier performance (indicated by the 70). Similarly, a 960 is of the 9 series of cards and it offers good low-tier performance (shown by the 60). In your case, I would try to avoid anything older than the 10 series, and nothing below the 60ti performance level.

Unless you're willing to pay scalper prices, it will be pretty hard right now...
