Low end GFX card needed

[Dave0w]

Low end GFX card needed, a friend as a pc witch he uses for video converting and the web, some times may play low end games but i has a gaming rig so no need for a monster of a card. New card needed because the fan on his current card is buzzing and stop some times

he say the budget is up to £70 as nothing super is needed, i was going to tell me to visit a "big nasty PC shop" but first i would ask you guys as we all know the "big nasty PC shop" charges silly prices for crap.

is this card and good compared to the 8800gs the pc was using

Asus Ati HD-3870 512 DDR3

I think they should b similar. Id get an nvidia 8800 card

Is that second hand? Should be similar in performance... It's a bit dated though considering it's not a low power and quiet card.

If you are looking at buying a new card you could try out the Radeon 5670 for £71? Offers directx11 and will be very quiet and efficient.

With a budget of £70 then buying second hand would be the best bet, should be able to pick up something like a ati 5770, ive just sold two for £50 each

I just bought a 5970 1GB for £55 on the bay....and before that i had an 8800GTS 640MB for only £9 on the bay

or if hes after new with a 2 year warranty and modern warefare 2 then this one is a good deal.

Dose not need a power card Read first post, so £70 for a new card is more then enough
