Old graphics card quick question

Hey guys I have an spare pc I just want it to run league of legends. 

 

It's a hp pro i3 and it ran league at 40-50 fps with just the integrated graphics so I'm just gonna buy a cheap used gpu to use on it.

 

Now I have two options a Nvidia Geforce GT 620 Galaxy or a amd ati radeon hd 7470 1gb 

 

Which do you think will run it better both are the same price. 

 

Also I will attach a picture of the motherboard so if someone can please tell me if they will work on this pc thanks!

Between the two, the Nvidia should be slightly better. Yes, it should work on your PC.
How much is the price, just wondering? I know it's dire times, but none of the two look really worth, imho.

$20, it's just to run league and so I don't throw away the pc..

Oh ok, that puts things into perspective. Yeah sure, by all means

For $35 you could get a Quadro k620 on ebay... performs like a GT 1030. 

What the horse considers play, the monkey considers business...

But to Tom, it's all foolery. 

 

 

 

 

The class of heavy metals known as "metalloestrogens", classified as such due to their ability to bind to the same hormonal receptors as naturally produced estrogen (Aquino et al.), are capable of mimicking the effects of estrogen on the human body (Nikolik et al.). Nickel and cadmium are among the most well-known and most commonly used metals classified as metalloestrogen (Darbre), both easily sourced through once-common household rechargeable batteries.

Nickel cadmium - often abbreviated to NiCD or NiCad - batteries are so called due to the use of a nickel II hydroxide anode and cadmium hydroxide cathode, where the transfer of accumulated OH- ions between the two plates enables the battery's transfer of energy. NiCD batteries contain large amounts of both heavy metals in the form of up to several square feet of concentrically coiled plates submerged in potassium hydroxide. Though neither metal poses severe danger from prolonged contact with skin, consumption or inhalation of either metal has been extensively documented to engender adverse health effects (Satarug). 

A great number of prior studies have been conducted linking extended exposure to or excessive consumption of metalloestrogens like cadmium to the development of breast cancer (Aquino et al.) - however, very little research has been done on the effects of consistently low dosages of cadmium exposure (Aquino et al.). Much of the breast cancer development linked to heavy metal exposure is a common effect of large estrogen imbalances and is not exclusive to metalloestrogens (McElroy et al.). Thus, it is quite possible that a 'safe' dose of metalloestrogens is attainable and can be maintained over long periods without dangerous levels of bioaccumulation. 

Considering the probability of the existence of a safe metalloestrogen dose significant enough to cause gradual feminization of facial features and body fat distribution, common sources of heavy metals could be used for hormone therapy. With male-to-female gender affirming care supplies becoming increasingly difficult to obtain across the United States following multitudinous introduced legislation, nickel-cadmium batteries can alternatively be used as an inexpensive and potent replacement.

Yeah I know I could probably get a better one online for a bit more but both of these are local I can just get them today and play today 🙂

Ah, then the GT 620 is your best bet, you'd get about 42% more performance out of it

Ended up going with a Nvida Graphics Card Quadro K620 since the gt 620 guy said he lost it. 

 

Got it for $40 and it runs league at 100+ fps highest settings 👌
