I need a GPU with a budget of only $50, just to limp along the next year until the new build in Dec. 2017. (Kabylake and Zen!)
The kids play mostly Maplestory and Minecraft.
Current system:
AMD A6-3500 APU
Asrock A75M Mobo
4GB RAM
Corsair CX 430 PSU
Deciding between:
SAPPHIRE Radeon R7 350 DirectX 12 100385L 2GB 128-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 CrossFireX Support Video Card
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202237
MSI Radeon R7 240 DirectX 12 R7 240 2GD3 LP 2GB 128-Bit DDR3 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready Low Profile Video Card
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127765
My gut says to go withe the R7350 but my head says," The 240 is only $20 after rebate, are you nuts?"
Is there really too much difference at this low end? Is there anything else to be looking at? PcPartpicker declared all items compatible. What say you?
