So I have a r7 250x and it's decent put i kinda need an upgrade, nothing to expensive or crazy just a 15-30 % increase in performance... I found this guy that's trying to sell a gtx 570 with 1.5 gb ram right now its going for 54 Euro or 400 Danish is it worth?

What's your current build?

I wouldn't upgrade to a card with anything less than 2GBs of VRAM. 750Ti is the minimum for 1080p gaming while maintaining a decent frame rate and not having to crank settings down to the absolute minimum IMO.

Can you spend $50 more to get an RX 460/GTX 1050? Because that would be a much better upgrade!

search for used R7 370, they usually go for that price. Or maybe you get lucky and can get some better (but older) gpus for cheap like the HD 7970 (because people think it's so old, that it can't be any good, even though it still packs a punch).

It's like 150-200 in Denmark... And for a secondary system which i use a few times a week i don't consider it worth the upgrades then....

Could you check how the HD 6870 is there? Or the 650ti? Those tend to be fairly cheap. Also check on the 760ti and the regular 760. In the us the prices are: 30, 55, 90, 70

Specs v-v

They either aren't for sale or ridiculously overpriced

LOL if you said 15$ or 30$ I'd just ask for the money and send ya an extra gpu, because I have around 20 laying around waiting for work. How much is a dreaded plane ticket? Cuz ur country sucks.
