Posted March 24, 2017 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. Owner Of The USRG Trust Me, I'm an engineer and IT Technician It shouldn't blow up, I think. COMBUSTIBLE LEMONS!!!

But that is not the unique part. The server room is what cools the computer. That is the unique part. Owner Of The USRG Trust Me, I'm an engineer and IT Technician It shouldn't blow up, I think.
