Small Budget GPU

[Bolorice]

Hello,  my dad wants to swap out the Nvidia 9800 GS in his computer to a card that supports HDMI output.

 

The problem is that the case is fairly small (it's a best buy bought HP desktop) and it can only supply around 350w of power. The reason he wants to do this is so that he can hook it up to the TV and stream Vvdeos, no gaming for him.

So help me out, what's the cheapest card that can output HDMI Video and audio and not overload the power supply?

gt 610

Nvidia GT 630 should do the trick

GT 210/510/610 or RHD 6450 are the cheapest, but to be honest I'd doubt they perform any better then a 9800GS

if you're not gonna play any games then just get a GT 610/620/630

By the way, it's a PCI-E slot

Like the others a gt610 would work but i would step up to a 750(ti) if you can

5450 / GT210 / GT610

get the GT610 as it's good enough to output HD video on the TV through HDMI

Geforce GT 210, but GTX 750 TI SC would work and it alot more powerful.

the GTX titan black 6gb graphics card would work and is also ALOT more powerful...

WTF the guy said the father wont play games only stream videos why in the world would he spend 165$ for a gtx 750ti superclocked?! wich btw is a pretty bad buy for gaming...

750 TI SC is the most powerful card that'd work. It'd be overkill or "future proof" for the father if you look at his old card you'll realize he rarely upgrades and he said he has a PSU limitation so you're suggest of  the Titan Black wouldn't work and all Titan Blacks are 6GB so why'd you list that you also Realize VRAM doesn't really affect performance much..

haaaah! but if he wants futureproofing then he might want 6gb of vram to make sure he can stream his 4k porn videos for a while you know

So if he wants futureproofing he'd have to create a bottleneck, Run his computer outside of a case, and break the laws of physics! >.<

Never mind guys! False alarm! Turns out the 9800 GS already has an HDMI port,(dad didn't even bother to check) so we're returning the 610 we JUST got lol.
