I currently run and own a AMD Radeon R7 200 Series for my graphics card, but I am looking for a upgrade. Does anyone have any ideas? I am not one to go for looks, because my graphics card runs in a server. Also bang for the buck. So if anyone has any ideas, I would prefer that it is kept around or under 300$. Thanks in advanced for the help.

Keep in mind, I run Virtual Machines so not every thing is compatible. Example, I can not run any Nividia cards

in a server? that's doomed to go wrong :P

on topic: if you're talking actual rackmount chassis, i'd suggest looking into blower-style coolers, rather than the multi-fan huge bricks with many fans we see all around because they are fancy.

The server itself is actually in a standard case. I could manage with a huge multi-fan card brick do-hickey

Yes. I use a VERY unique cooling system. It intakes through the front and blows out through the back. But that is not the unique part. The server room is what cools the computer. That is the unique part.

Luckily, by the looks of things he knows as much about test building as he does about logical contradictions.
