Is this GPU good for my build?

Car712

So recently I have been deciding on what to do with this build, and have decided to buy a GPU for it. However I am wondering if this GPU is good, and will I be able to play modern games such as GTA 5?

 

GPU: https://www.ebay.com/itm/EVGA-GeForce-GT-710-1GB-DDR3-HDMI-VGA-DVI-Graphics-Card-01G-P3-2711-KR/183463616444?hash=item2ab7489fbc:g:bqoAAOSwOnJbsjyp:sc:USPSPriority!63124!US!-1

 

My build: https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/969776-my-first-real-build/?tab=comments#comment-11754296

(Look at last post, and only change is that the hard drive is now a 500GB WD Caviar Green)

I think it'll be alright with that Intel Xeon E3110 you've got there, it'll be a boost, but don't expect to play GTA 5 with that.

 

I used to have a GT 710 paired with an i5-650 and it ran CSGO at 60fps lowest settings, it's not the best card but it's a little boost from integrated.

Just wondering, is there another GPU in that price range (max $38 with shipping) that would be better, or should I just get this one?

That's very little for a GPU, possibly a GT 640 or even a GT 740 could be better if you can find one for that price. I don't know much about AMD cards but there's probably also cards in that range that would do better than a GT 710.

Used GT 1030 wouldn't be a bad option either...

 

There's really not much one can get with a sub-50 GPU budget.

IK it seems really sketchy so think of it what you want, but I got a used GTX 650 for 30 bucks at https://www.ebay.com/itm/GALAXY-NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-650-GTX650-1GB-1-GB-D5-128Bit-Video-Game-Card/152940921634?hash=item239bfd4322 .

Specs: CPU: AMD Ryzen R7 3700X @4.4Ghz, GPU: Gigabyte RX 5700 XT, RAM: 32 GB (2x 8GB Trident Z Royal + 2x 8GB TForce Vulkan Z) @3000Mhz, Motherboard: ASRock B550m Steel Legend, Storage: 1x WD Black 1Tb NVMe (boot) + 1x Samsung 860 QVO 1Tb SSD (storage), Case: Thermaltake Core V21, Cooler: Noctua NH-D15

Aside from the HDMI/DP, that looks a lot like a scam card to me....

And I thought the exact same thing, so if OP doesn't want it, I don't blame them. All I know is I got it and it was a GTX 650 as advertised.

A Hd 7570 would be much better for a similar price https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2334524.m570.l1313.TR5.TRC1.A0.H0.Xhd+7570.TRS1&_nkw=hd+7570&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&_osacat=0&_odkw=hd+7590&LH_TitleDesc=0

Or a 6790 https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2334524.m570.l1313.TR1.TRC0.A0.H0.Xhd+6790.TRS0&_nkw=hd+6790&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&_osacat=0&_odkw=hd+7690&LH_TitleDesc=0 if you can find one in your budget would be even better

A HD 6750 and HD 6770 would also be much better than a gt 710

I actually went ahead and bought the one I posted, a little before I saw your message, but im guessing the difference isint that much,

 

And thanks everyone for your input!
