Graphic card recommendation please ^_^;

[DN3000]

Hi all,

I have managed to get an old hand-me-down PC which I intend to use for living room use (i.e. streaming, gaming (l4d2/borderlands 2/jet set radio etc) - steam big picture etc). Can anybody recommend a graphics card? around the £30 - £100 price range. Cheaper is better folks lol

Some system info:

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E8300 @ 2.83GHz, 2830 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 2 Logical Processor(s)
System Type: X86-based PC
Motherboard Intel Corporation DQ965GF

You can pick up 5770s for £50 or so second hand these days

GTX 460's 1GB are a simular price secondhand.

I would suggest a 7850 1GB if going new but that would be botlenecked by your system.

The system case a a low profile one.. i might have to swap out the case with a budget one...

 

[Doomedspeed]

What case is it?

 

[DN3000]

A budget RM expert 3020 case

A 460 would be plently for the system (play lfd2 max settings on a 6850) if it can fit in the case. What are the dimensions the GPU can fit in.

5850 best fit for that cpu?

A 7750 or 7770
