Any GPU recommendations for Asrock G41M-VS3 R2.0? I am trying to revive an old PC to have it atleast usable.
 
Solution
Brand Name: Asus
GPU Model:GeForce GTX 750 Ti
Video Memory Capacity: 2 GB

ASUS Video Card Original GTX 750Ti 2GB 128Bit GDDR5 Graphics Card

Here. I was warned about buying a GDDR5 GPU for this old unit, what was that all about?
It requires a 6 pin connector. Does your psu have it?
If not, you will have to buy another psu.
Dont even think about using adapters.

To begin with, this is a system from 2011, I just want to give it some life.

What PSU do you have? 300w Samsung PSU
Budget? any price range that will be compatible with the mobo
Monitor resolution? 1080p
List full pc specs. 6GB DDR3
Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU E5200 @ 2.50GHz

If you play games what do you play? I actually don't play games, but I am planning that this unit will be used even on light gaming. Maybe LoL or Val.
 
You'll be able to play league, but idk about valorant.
Valorant is infact cpu demadning, i have a i3 3240 paired with a R9 380 and im not lying when im saying that my fps sometimes dips below 60fps, i ussually get 90-100fps on comp settings/ 1080p.
For how much can you get a 750Ti for in your country?

Yeah, I remember buying the unit for League. It's okay, I just want this unit to be decent enough. About $75 now. Is that GPU will be compatible? Thank you.

This is noted. Thank you for you input. May I know if you have any references for the compatibility of the GPU and motherboard? Just in case I need to prove that the GPU was compatible with the motherboard if my order when in hand does not work.
