Hello everyone i want a suggestion for a good cheap graphic card, but it must be :
under 60$
should worke on 300watts PSU
no 6pin connector
minimum 1gb
 
Probably one of these two. But they aren't great for gaming, as one review says, they are a small step up from intergrated graphics but you can have some fun out of them at low-ish settings:

NOOOO PLEASE DON'T BUY A R7 240, its an insult to all decent graphics card owners on this planet!

To continue on this train of thought, there are no decent graphics cards in 60$ price tag, only turkeys for which you will be better of with whatever you already got.
 


I run a 5450 on a machine. way better than the on board graphics and can play CoD2 at 720p without too much troubles.
 
R7 240 is your best for under 60

They all come with one free game.
 


with a g210 ddr2? 512mb, man I have one and its unplayable, anything less than 20fps is stupid
I have the card and I know your wrong
 
Look guys, I know from experience, and I say that I cannot look myself in the mirror if I ever buy another budget card again. I'd rather clinch my teeth and save for even another 6 months if I must, but I'll never buy anything that costs below 150$ again.
 


dude he's playing it on medium settings 1024x768 25-33 fps, it's not bad and i have the same PC, better PC ! i have an intel quad core ... and on top of that i won't be playing heavy games, COD black ops 2 is the only heavy game i would be playing.. so what about this ?
 


rather get a gt520, but a g210 is a bad idea, the g210 cant even play BF3 and on CoD get ready to be short by unseen enemies and bad frame pacing and shuttering, gl mate youll need it
