Hey, I've been using GeForce GT 730 for 1,5 years now and I'm looking to upgrade.
Basically, I want a slight upgrade around the price of 100-120 euros.
I'm not really familiar with comparing gpus so any suggestions are appreciated.

why not wait and save money and get gtx 1070, i think its like 300-400$ USD, if nothing is wrong with your GPU, or there is no immediate problems, i would wait. That is what im doing for the gtx 1080 or 1070.

What games do you like to play and want to play? You could wait until cards like RX460/470 comes out, would be interesting to see what they deliver.

It's generally not recommended to buy a cheap graphics card since their performance is so poor you'd end up upgrading sooner rather than later, but here is a chart of the best fps/$ GPUs.

Because I don't want to spend 400 dollars on video games, just looking for a slight upgrade in order to play with above 120 FPS on native res.

I don't understand what I'm looking at, just looking for 2-3 slightly better gpus than what I currently have.

100-120 euro graphics cards are utter trash and a waste of your 100-120 euros. Save to around 200-250 and pick up an AMD RX480 when you can.

It's not as complicated as you might think. You find a GPU from the list that matches your price range and that has the highest fps per dollar.
Take the GTX 950 at the top of the list for example, it costs 120$ and you can probably find it for less than 120€ in Greece. If not you could try the R9 270 and the R7 370 slightly below the 950 and so on.

#2
Budget was explicitly specified.
You suggested something that costs 3-4 times that.
Does not work.
#3
We have a winner. RX 460 should be interesting.
And as always: Don't upgrade for the sake of upgrading. Have a performance goal and pay just enough to reach that and not significantly more.
#4
Your link does not support your claim.
5 of the top 7 are <120$, the other 2 are <170$.
Also passmark is bullshit, unless you actually think that the Fury and Fury X are the exact same speed and slower than a 970.
#5
How much better?
I just need a rough idea, name one game and how many fps you'd like on certain settings at a certain resolution.
It would probably worth waiting another month for the AMD RX 460.

Look at the 270X, 950 and 370.
Seems pretty good to me.

TF2 with 150+ FPS on native resolution.

What settings though?
I'm not entirely convinced that this is GPU related.
Just use GPU-Z while playing TF2 and check if you're actually hitting 100% GPU usage. If not it's your CPU.
Welcome to TF2.

Welcome to TF2.
I'm running comanglia's config on dx 81 and I'm getting around 90-100 FPS on pub fights.
I'd like to use dx 9 with no config and medium settings, but I think this will cost me money that I don't have so I'm just going to keep using dx 81 with comanglia's config.
Where on GPU-Z can I see GPU usage?
This is my graphics card and sensors window if that helps..

Thanks for the screenshots.
It's "GPU load".
It does spike to 100% so a new GPU will help.
I can't promise you 150+ fps at all times because there will be drops in pubs and you get those even on better CPUs, but turning up settings like AA or AF only affects the GPU and should be easily possible with a new GPU.
DX9 will cost you a few fps but again, apart from the drops you should be able to get 150+ fps most of the time.
I'd have to check how much GPU power exactly you'd need for "medium settings". I'd just say fuck it, wait for the RX 460 which should be within budget and will probably be overkill for TF2.

I see, my GPU load is actually worse than the one on the screenshot.
I'm probably going to wait until it is released, I'm hearing people all around that the prices of current good GPUs are going to drop when the two competing GPUs are going to be released.

No it won't.
Does the word "budget" mean anything to you?
The RX 460 will already be overkill for TF2 on 1080p at medium settings, why would you spent even more money?
