Hi all, looking to update my card in sig.

The length of the card is important and the current card just fits in my case, 208 x 111 x 35.

I ideal would like a second hand card with a budget up to £100

Please could you give me some recommendations.


Main function would be World of tanks but not a hard core gamer

Thanks
 
If you can add a score to that, you prob wont take long to find a 290 in MM. Wont get anywhere near that sort of performance at that price on an anything else.

NVM actually, cant fit it in the case... unless you want to spend another 10 and get a hacksaw?
 
for that price and that size, my guess would be 750Ti, or something like radeon 360.
there are some good sapphir Radeon 380 small factor but comes with half the memory(2Go instead of 4Go), and doubt you will find them 2nd hand, couln't find on OCuk, so here is a link to know what the card look like here
2nd hand should fetch around 100/130£ but good luck finding it

GTX 670 was a small card and could easily be gotten for less than £100.

However the case is really holding you back from getting some really good cards. Might be worth investing a little in a new case.
 
Thanks for the input guys I have been eyeing up the R 2**x range but like you say due to case I struggle.

Think its a good time to replace the case and like the functionality of the Cooler Master Silencio 550 Silent Tower Case. The rig is in a htpc case at the moment so need to make sure the case is not to big so can hide at back of tv but supports all reliant graphics cards, and make it ideal for ongoing upgrades.
