Very Cheap GFX Needed

[superleeds27]

Friend has a PC, which currently has integrated GFX.

They're after a card which allows HDMI outpt, so TV can be used as a monitor.

The motherboard is: Asus P5N-MX

Budget is low, £30 tops.

400W PSU.

I know the budget isn't the best but it just need to be simple/basic and do the job really!

Any info would be helpful!

TA'!

No gaming or bluray playback aspirations? It's a shame that board only has onboard VGA but a Radeon 5450, 6450 or GeForce 610 would suit the bill perfectly.
I've got something similar to this and it's perfect for hooking up to a TV: Good scaling & overscan controls and it supports audio over HDMI

I would get the 6450: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-169-MS&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=1983

It's got a newer UVD decoder which will help with HD playback. If you need a low profile card however then the 5450 sean linked will do.

The silent low end GeForce 600 series have suited me well as basic gaming cards for older games in my second LAN gaming PC.

Will probbaly go for the 6450!
