Anyone have a spare Graphics card?

Post by FuzzySquirrel »

In an effort to save myself some money, I was curious if anyone had a decent GFX card they'd be willing to part with. I'd be interested in anything under $100, Preferably a US Seller (shipping cost).

I have no preference on ATI/nvidia, just looking for something to play PR:BF2/A2 with.

There are really nice GPUs for less than 100 you can get for new.

If you can give me some more information like how large your power supply is, and your case's form factor and peripheral interface type. Then I will shop for one.

You can get this information by:

Power Supply: Open your case and read the numbers on the power supply, it is usually in the top of the case near the back with a giant fan. You will be looking for something like "400w"

GPU interface type: Use http://www.techpowerup.com /gpuz/ It will tell you your type. Hopefully you will have "PCI x16"

Form Factor: If you bought your PC from dell, which im assuming you did something similar then you should give me a store page to it so I can collect some information to further assist you. With that page I can also get the form factor.

Good luck

PSU is a Cosair TX650W, Case is Antec VSK-2000 and mobo is Gigabyte M68M-SP2, I had a HD 4870 but HIS doesn't know how to make ****. I'm looking here because you can usually get a better deal second hand.

I was unsure of your experience with that sort of thing so I gave it my all, but if you want to be sarcastic then my few minutes of typing that was wasted.

Good luck
