[SOLVED] Which graphics card for an i3 3220?

[psaez84]

Hi

That old motherboard is fully compatible with nvidia gt 1030? In the motherboard website they told that it's compatible with pci express gen 3.0. I'm not sure if that means that that videocard will work perfectly.

Also, Is that graphics card compatible with dual screen configuration? Is as easy as connecting one screen to the hdmi output and the other to the DVI output?

Thank you very much.

Hi

That cpu is used in a GA-B75M-D3H with 4 gb ram. The computer will be used for internet navigation, documents, movies and a sometimes for a few games in low requirements.

The expected money range is 50-100€. And the graphics card must be compatible with dual screen configuration.

Is nvidia gt 1030 the best option?

One thread per topic, please.

What is the resolution and refresh rate of the monitor that you're going to be gaming on?

Does the monitor have either FreeSync or GSync? Or neither?

The only GPU you may be able to buy new for around $100 would be a GT1030 or equivalent, which is more or less the most that would be worth pairing with a an i3-3220.

You cannot find the information simply because that sort of information is unnecessary: practically all modern GPUs can be reasonably expected to work on nearly all motherboards from the past 12+ years.
