Hi I'm trying to put together a ryzen 1600 build for web browsing, programming, photoshop etc. I will NOT be gaming.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a cheap gpu under £50?
Thanks!

Like this? https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/rtnG3C/msi-video-card-gt7101gd3hlp. Provided it's got the display ports you need, plenty for general tasks like programming, web browsing, etc.

Thanks! Seems perfect.
 
Just be aware that this is NOT a gaming card, not at all. If you should one day change your mind and say "I think I wouldn't mind playing a bit of GTA V" you will be very unhappy to learn you will need to buy another videocard.

I mention this because I've seen people do this, more than once. "No, I won't be gaming" then they buy the cheap non gaming card, then they get mad at me for suggesting that card because it turns out they want to play games too after all. So I always try to stress that a non gaming card won't be usable for gaming, no joke.

I understand it's unsuitable for gaming, if ever become a gamer I'll upgrade. Thank you for your advice.
