Looking to buy a gpu for my 2012 Dell Inspiron 570 (currently using on-board graphics). I only want to be able to play minecraft with a good fps, maybe a couple other non-demanding games, and watch hd youtube videos (I already can to some extent). I don't want to have to buy a new power supply that has all of the connections this Inspiron needs, so I am stuck with the 300w PSU it has in it. I talked to dell support, and they told me it would be perfectly fine to add a gpu with a tdp of 50w or less. Now, I don't know whether to buy a new gpu, or a used one.
New Options (Amazon):
EVGA GT 710 1GB DDR3 64bit Single Slot, Low Profile- $34.99
MSI ATI Radeon HD6450 1GB DDR3 Low Profile PCI-E Video Card - $35.63
EVGA GeForce GT 610 1024MB GDDR3 Graphics Card - $35.99
PNY GeForce GT 730 1GB GDDR5 Graphics Card - $54.99
Used Options (Probably Ebay):
Not really sure what I should be looking for? As long I am able to find one (I am okay with bidding) for under $50, and it DOES NOT require power from the power supply. It must be powered only from the pci-e slot, and tdp under 50w.
I appreciate ALL help and comments! THANKS!! -Ethan
