Anyone happen to have this?
in Miscellaneous ·
Hey everyone, wondering if anyone’s got a board like this lying around? Doesn't have to be an exact match, just needs an abacus on it and enough space to write on... condition doesn't really matter much...
Basically looking for one (we can figure out details via DM), so hit me up if you have anything...
My bad if this should've gone in the classifieds section..

only 1, noticed that..

If you're looking at budget options, maybe check out an HD575... 1GB should be under eighty bucks.
EDIT: talk about bad timing...
that second one is way too pricey... plus I gotta deal with like $5 shipping.

boldcanyon14 said:GTX 450 for sure, specifically the 1GB model.. cheapest one I could track down. If you can't swing $17 that, maybe look at the 512MB version, but if you're rocking a full HD monitor, honestly just go for the 1GB...
I'll make it work $17 somehow, but I was looking at the reviews and saw it pulls maybe 130W max... does it take one 6-pin connector or two? Couldn't tell from the photos.. My PSU only has one, so need to know if I'm gonna need an adapter or what..

Hey guys, recently put together this build with some help from you folks on here:
AthlonII x3 445 3,2 GHz
Asrock 880 GXH/usb3
Fortron FSP400 400W
Kingmax ddr3 1333MHz 2Gb x2
Been rocking the integrated graphics for a bit, but finally scraped together enough cash (roughly $267) for a dedicated card.
Currently stuck with a tiny 17-inch CRT, but hoping to grab a 20-22 inch widescreen soon.
Just need something that can handle some newer games without choking, though I'm not exactly a hardcore gamer. Needs to match the rest of the rig too.
Open to anything from Best Buy to Micro Center...
Thanks.

Hey, finished picking up most of my rig yesterday. I decided to dump most of the cash into the GPU, so now I'm stuck staring at options and can't make a call... Here’s what else I've got:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 box, 2.8GHz
Motherboard: Gigabyte MA770-UD3
PSU: FORTRON BlueStorm 500W
Drive: Western Digital WD3200AVRZ, 320 GB 16MB, 7200rpm
RAM: DDR2 2GB PC6400 (800MHz), Kingmax
Monitor: Samsung LCD Monitor, 23''
Mainly using this for gaming, nothing crazy though—just movies and stuff. Looking for a card that won't be obsolete in two or three years... something that handles current titles without needing insane FPS or resolutions... I've got exactly $317 to work with, so definitely not even $3.25 because money is tight right now. Checking out shops all over the US... currently leaning toward an AMD HD4850, they seem to be everywhere from $267 to $367. Realized I didn't factor in the rest of the build, specifically the monitor, which probably dictates the best choice here. Any advice? Doesn't have to be AMD, just have had decent luck with them in the past... thanks.
