Probably a second hand HD 7770 or something, especially if gaming there is nothing good new for that price

A dog turd is not good, right? So two dog turds is just two bad things, not a good thing. 

 

But if you are burning the dog turds for energy then 2 is much better than 1 ;)

Ah, but if coal is available, is that still true? 

 

Low end cards are not worth the investment. 

 

Unless you don't have a lot of money at hand and no stable income. Then low end cards are worth it for sure.

No, no they are not. And income has nothing to do with it, only priorities. I'm a college student and have a 980ti, that is only because it was a priority. Not a car, or expensive habit. 

 

Low end graphics cards are a waste of money, unless you have no intention of using them for gaming and don't have a iGPU in your CPU.

If anyone asks you never saw me.
