Used 1050, 950, 960 or 1050 ti.

If you need new, the best one for under 75W (aka no pcie connectors needed) and under 90 euros are gt 1030s (gddr5)

Sigh I KNOW a 1050 Ti is better, you all just don't know the extension of OPs past threads, every one told him to get the 1050 Ti and a better PSU and what not, he kept saying he'd buy a 1030 instead because every thing is expensive where he lives.

 

Then he found a 1050 that was within his budget.

Some 950 don't need PCIe power connectors (newer 75w versions). Fetch those if you can't find that used 1050

Ah, ok. (Though he should REALLY get a better PSU, a CX450M does *not* cost that much)

I think 1050 Ti is good bang for the buck when coupled with a weaker CPU and what not.
