Is there a better graphics card for the price of Nvidia gtx 750 ti?

[Shammikit]

I have a asrock g41m s3 motherboard.Im planning to buy a used graphics card and for my budget I can get a used gtx 750ti.is there any other card that I can get for the same price which has better performance in gaming. My budget is US $50

For $50 not much unless you could find a sweet deal on one of the higher 7XX series cards or a 950 for that price.

Would any card above 750 ti support my motherboard. I asked the best card that is compatible with my motherboard at a forum and one guy said gtx 750 ti. how do i know if a card is compatible with my pc

Go to google and type in your motherboard and any gpu you want to see is compatible. That'll give you answers.

You should be able to pick up a used GTX 480, for around $50

gtx 480 is not powerful as the 750ti right,no use buying that so.

This isn't actually true - the GTX 480 still slightly outperforms the 750ti. It's just that it's horribly inefficient as it uses about four times the power for 10-15% better performance.

Since you're buying a used GPU, it's hard to tell what will feasibly be available for you at $50. I can't imagine you do much better than 750ti at that price. But personally, I'd save up a little more and get an RX 460 before a used 750ti. Used GPUs are risky unless you're getting it from a friend, especially when you're past warranty, and the driver support going forward will be a lot worse for a 750ti.

Thanks for the info

For buying used, just be smart. See the component tested and working if you can. If you're using ebay or amazon, check their reviews and see what people think and if they've been successful. Check return policy and warranty, if they have one. If buying from craigslist, follow those safe practices.
