Need a poorfag GPU.jpg
79 KB, 600x329
My older brother wants to change his very old gpu, he's a poorfag so he only has $60 to spend but he just want to be able to run the new CODs and other casual shit like that.

What should I tell him to buy? I'm completely behind and I never bought a GPU for less than $150

If you delete this thread and post it on /wsr/ I will help you, else fuck off

$60 isn't going to get him anything better than his current gpu, especially if he wants to run newer games. He needs at least $100 to get some actual entry-level cards.
>>

He has a 9600GT, there's no way he can't find better for $60. Buying a second-hand card is an option.

nigger there's somebody already in this thread willing to help you. Just make a thread in /wsr/ and delete this one if you can, christ.

There is no $60 solution. What you get for $60 will turn his semi-gaming PC into a YouTube browsing machine. And don't buy secondhand. That's an imbecile tactic that will end up with you feeling regret. Just fucking post on >>>/wsr/ so the other anon can help you. Otherwise, fuck off with your stubborn delusions.
>>
>>53313342
I am completely willing to help him if he does what I asked.
>>
>>53311816
actually 60$ cards are about equivalent to a 9600 gt, just float the kid 40$ bucks
>>
>>53311690
Nothing, wait for AM4 APUs
>>
>>53313353
This probably isn't a bad idea. I've seen them as low as $50. OC monsters too. I've got mine at 1250Mhz. Sitting on that until polaris and pascal.
>>
>>53311690
Tell him to save up 40 bucks and try Craigslist. Its very hit or miss, but i've picked up some nice cards like the 670 for around 100 dollarydoos.
>>
>>53313382
Not true, I could get a 560ti for 60$ and that's way better.

And unfortunately he's not a kid, he's 10 years older than me (nearly 40)

>>53313353
>>53313443
Thanks guys, I'm going to check that.

try for a used gtx 460 imo.
>>
>>53311951
I just discovered theres a "tripcode filter" on clover
Thank god. This is the last time i see your bullshit around here.
>>
>>53311690
Be a real bro, throw some of your own money to the pot and get him 750 Ti. Runs COD and he power bill goes down power bill.
>>
>>53311690
get him an apu. a10-7870k should be fine. don't expect amazing fps on ultra high settings though. it's good enough for mid-settings on almost every game.
>>
>>53316165
The only APU worth getting is the A8 7650/70K

although AM4 may change this

Buy him an r7 360/370?
Or a used gtx 660/r7 260x?
>>
>>53311690
Even if your dirt poor, you at least need a FM2+ mobo and an APU for gaming, which is around $120. I'd never use a system like that myself, but it'll work.
>>
>>53311690
Go get the AMD Radeon HD 5770 it's a good card for around $100 USD It can run games like CSGO and Gmod like a charm
>>
>>53316318
not op but would an a8 be enough to max out planetary annihilation?

Can't find much information on that.

>>53316382
My friend got a hd 5870 for $10 on gumtree. It had artifacts though so he just stuck it in the oven and then decreases gpu clock by 10mhz. Gives him ~50-60 fps battlefield 4 on high settings when I played at his place on silk rd and about 5 fps less in paracel storm.

Only 60 fps low settings in gta v though, but I think that's because that game is a fucking memory hog and it's only a 1gb card.

Try to contact the owner of lanhaus.net and see if they have anything.

I bought some gtx 750ti cards from them for $70 each, they probably have something.
>>
>>53313495
Wait so a 30 year old man and his 40 year old brother can hardly afford spending $60 on a gpu? Where the hell do you live? ?
