Looking for a cheap GPU

[Cere4L]

Hey guys, I'm looking for a small, low power video card to put in my NAS. I'm looking for something that doesn't draw a lot of power since this is going to be on 24/7. 

 

Right now I'm looking at the EVGA GeForce 210 as it is the cheapest card on NCIX right now. Is there any reason this won't work with the rest of my system?

 

NAS

 

CPU: Intel Pentium G3220

Motherboard: SuperMicro X10SLH-F

PSU: Corsair 430M

 

Thanks.

 

Edit: Size is a concern, I have a spare 5870 I tried but the card is too long and blocks 3 of the SATA ports.

sure get the cheapest one if you can't use onboard.

Doesn't the SuperMicro X10SLH-F have a VGA output?

Tried two different boards, CPU's, and PSU's and it wont post without a GPU.

That's a bummer

Well, just get the cheapest compatible graphic card you can find.The 210 you linked looks like a decent choice, multiple outputs with no fan.

Unfortunately it took me a week to figure out what was actually wrong, I blamed the CPU, PSU, MB, and RAM before I tried a video card in it.  :rolleyes:

 

I'll pickup the 210 tomorrow, thanks for your help.

GTX 750 Ti.. gigabyte.. so tiny.

750 Ti was my original choice, but the 210 is so much cheaper and I won't be using it for much more than to power on my build.

For a NAS just go with the cheapest thing you can find.
