inexpensive good gpu

ibehymer
Go to solution Solved by Trivecta,

If you want new stuff, a new 750 ti goes for about 100$ now, and that card will kill games like MC. But if you want to go for something a little less, some of those older generation AMD cards are always cheap on EBay. Good luck! I recommend putting what price you are looking for :P

so i have an old ddr2 gaming pc that doesnt run so great anymore. what is a good gpu i can get for it that will make it run pretty good for minecraft and platform games? i dont want to spend a ton of money on this pc though

a 2nd hand card is a good bed - check your price range on ebay and local sites.

 You could buy a used GTX 650 from ebay right now for around $50-70. I don't have any personal experience with any GPUs other than the gt330m in my sony vaio, but even that is playable for minecraft. Just please don't buy anything that says Vamery- they are fake.

What' amour budget. Also good and cheap should not be in the same sentence when we are talking about GPUs IMO.

Well tbh a GTX 750 will more than work with the games that you want to play.
