Me and my friend are building a low end PC for school but I not sure on what graphics card to get. I was thinking of getting a HD 6450 but I just saw a GT 430 for £30, does anyone know of a good GPU for around £30?

HD 6570 is a great card for low price.

I did look at the HD 6570 but it's a bit out of my budget.

Can you save just a little bit more, in that budget you could hardly run new games on low-mid

The GT 430 is a lot better than the 6450. Like 54%.

http://www.game-debate.com/gpu/index.php?gid=471&gid2=4...

The GT 430 looks about the best card at around £30/$50

Even if you got £18.63, you could get a HD 7770, which could play like any game at medium setting. But that depends if your CPU is powerful enough. Well, Fist you pay £62 then a £12 mail in rebate.

But if your not really into gaming then just go with the 430. And use this website, it shows all the cheapest prices of computer parts. www.pcpartpicker.com

Could you give me your PC specs?

If you are not OVERLY concerned with Direct x 11 , keep an eye on the C.E.X. website (webuy.com) because there price for ati 3850's with half gig onboard ram
is £22. This card will play almost any game at lower resolutions at a really enjoyable level. I use one myself and it stomps with games like star trek online. I think it will be enough for your project.
It does need a 450 watt power supply tho.

If this is for gaming, the simple answer is to just spend more. You are wasting your time with anything slower than a 6670.

according to tom's gpu hierachy chart, the 3850 512 and 6670 are in the same performance tier, so for £22 yr laughing. I Know,
I bort one.
They ARE 2nd hand, but are tested well before being accepted for resale.
There is a cooling off period of 2 days where upon you can get a voucher
for your spend, after that there warrenty is worthless-
Two days is enough; We can never gues when these things fail.
Had mine 18 months and well happy.
