Galaxy GeForce 9500GT for $10

[lucifaitre]

Hi everyone,

I'm super new and in the process of learning about computer building,
but this deal came up and I was wondering if I should buy 2 to 4 of these cards
to put in an SLI/CF configuration, if it's possible.

And can anyone recommend a budget build with this?

Thanks.

Not at all.9500GT is a low-end card,so even 2 of them won't give you a good gaming performance.
You better buy one powerful card instead.

Would be a good card to keep on hand for troubleshooting and as a spare, but I agree with Maziar, this is not intended for gaming/heavy GPU use by today's standards.

Good luck!

Yes, buying one as a backup card isn't a bad idea.

Yeah, whenever you see a new video card selling for less than the price of a game, it's usually a card that can't be used to play games.

Two 9500 GT SLI'ed does not even equal a single 9600 GT.

It's about building a new PC (well, sort of.)

Thanks.
