I have $200 for a GPU and a PSU

Guest
Go to solution Solved by Peter Vaughan Truslow,

Used 280 (not used for BTC mining) and an XFX or SeaSonic PSU (or a cheap EVGA).

any 280 owner selling that claims it wasn't used for mining probably used it for mining.

Shadowplay is nothing great man its not anything you would think it is it didn't work great with my reference 770 or my friends 980 TI (2 way SLI but I doubt thats the issue) and we tried everything nothing helps it.  OBS on the other hand works great on my 770, my friends 980 TIs, and my brothers R9 390X (STRIX).  But if you really wanna go team green then you can pick up a 770 which is a good last gen GPU but runs great (I have the 4gb model but am upgrading) for around $175 US actually first search on ebay gave me http://www.ebay.com/itm/MSI-GTX-770-Twin-FROZR-OC-Edition-2GB-256-Bit-GDDR5-PCI-3-0-/181963750592?hash=item2a5de27cc0:g:QzsAAOSwUdlWcYhz which is a 2GB Vram MSI Twin Frozr model with only 5 bids and 5 hours left and its only at $120.  Check you local craigslist too as where I live even though it is one of the least tech oriented cities in the US there is multiple sellings of 770s as for a PSU if you can get anything $25-$50 then your probably going to have to buy something like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/750W-Gaming-120MM-Fan-Silent-ATX-Power-Supply-PSU-12V-/271229901254?hash=item3f268fd9c6:g:RxYAAMXQ855Rq86u .  I dont know for sure if modular is out of the equation for you but $200 and only wanting team green is a really narrow choice.  Another option is http://galaxstore.net/GALAX-NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-960-EXOC-2GB_p_28.html which is a good 960 but really limiting your PSU actually I dont even know of many $20 PSUs.  If I may ask why do you want Shadowplay so bad?

 

 

Shadowplay is nothing to write home about. Tried it on my 860M (750 Ti rebrand). Prefer OBS

 

 

shadow play is buggy for me so I use OBS instead. If it is that tight then the only gpu and PSU I can think of is 750 ti and coolermaster v650 or v550 psu

I want, shadow play. Don't give me the, shadow play sucks, I want it, and I want a PSU and a GPU for around $200, jeez
