What's the cheapest used GPU I can get for my setup. I would like to sell my GPU by wednesday because I got a great offer for it. But, my mobo doesn't have a DVI port for my iGPU. So I need a cheap old GPU so I can use my PC.

My PC:

CPU: Intel i5-2400

MB: Gigabyte Z68X-UD3P

RAM: Samsung 2x2GB 1333MHz CL9

HDD: Hitachi 7200RPM 500GB

Or is there a different solution?

PC: CPU: Intel i7-4790 MB: Gigabyte B85N RAM: Adata 4GB + Kingston 8GB SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 500GB GPU: XFX GTR RX 480 8GB Case: Advantech IPC-510 PSU: Corsair RM1000i KB: Idobao x YMDK ID75 with Outemu Silent Grey Mouse: Logitech G305 Mousepad: LTT Deskpad Headphones: AKG K240 Sextett
Phone: Sony Xperia 5 II

It's a 500W Corsair CX-M.

 

My GPU is a GTX560. Not really the best thing for gaming anymore. And even then I wanted a Ti version so it wasn't enough ever. Also, AMD HD7xxx GPUs are gettting so cheap second hand, 170€ for a HD7950. But I need to sell some more stuff to get it so I need a GPU so my PC is useable till then.

My friend borrowed me a nVidia 8400GS 256MB. Is it usable with a fullHD monitor connected through DVI?
