The Geforce 8400GS 1GB? Low Profile Brackets?

[Koren_Gagin]

Hi new here and well I need some help. Got a potato and well I have been looking  at a few GPUs to help bring the hamster in my computer from over working to just play some simple basic games to a calm relaxing mild walk or jog.

 

I picked the Geforce 8400GS since it fits my PSU nicely and PCIE port since I have a 2.0 the issue i have is its impossible to find the bugger in a store where i live and will every site that sells the darn thing has no mention if it comes with or without half sized brackets. and all customer reviews seemed to be mixed at best.

 

OPs Note: yes why buy a cheao $30 GPU and I should go build me a proper rig. well I am but spending 30 dollars just to keep my current computer going since work wont let me work an insane amount of hours to be able to afford buying the parts all at once. Even those pesky bills wont stop being mailed to me.

 

 

OK! sorry for the rant just had people on other furoms never stop talking about why even upgrade and just hold out for full upgrading. If anyone can help answer does the 8400GS come with or without half sized brackets. The help would be greatly appreciated.

That's an ancient graphic cards, ur unlikely to find stuff for it.

 

And to be blunt, most tech guys here will just say what u've already heard on other forums, wait and make a bigger upgrade, or buy something newer. That GPU was ow end when it came out, and its now like 7 generations old ...very slow in comparison to current gen cards.
