Hi, my BFG 8800 GTX has sadly perished. It failed a year ago, and I fixed in the oven. It has now failed again and although i attempted to cook it again, i left it to cool down in the oven with the heat off but neglected to tell my other half who merrily put tea in and gave it another 20 mins on full power. Needless to say it is now officially toast and I,m looking for a replacement.
My budget is £50 and i know budget and performance are mutually exclusive, but I would like some suggestions probably from ebay on something that will provide a reasonable replacement. The rest of my system is a core2 quad at 2.4 Ghz, 4GB RAM, 520 W PSU. All 6 years old and running at stock. Given the age of the system I dont need cutting edge tech and cant afford a new build. Im just looking for something that will run EVE Online, Portal 2 and Crysis (probably with settings turned down. My monitor runs at 1280 x 1024.
Ive seen the hd 6770 recommended at the price. Any other possibilitied?
