I have an integrated nVidia 7050 and E1400. Obviously need some upgrading. Going to be playing Tf2 @ 1280x1024, so cards don't have to be so great.

Nothing above $50 for either one, please!

i have an evga 8600gts for $35 shipped.

I don't have a box or anything, just the card. It's tested and working fine. probably has very little use on it because the system it was in was supposedly (unused) and i've only used it for a few hours before putting in my 4870.

itadakimasu, you also have a X1950XT for $35 shipped, do you not? ^.~

Reply to shadow187

Yeah I still have the x1950xt also.

It honestly worked flawlessly for well over a year, and then I was using it w\ my wifes computer and I think it was having a hard time w\ her 24'' lcd because it was having some heat issues and what not....

Just 2 days ago, I was using it in this HP i have @ my office and I'd reloaded the OS, so i had to find a new driver for it. ATI has moved 1950 drivers to "legacy" and the next day I was getting some kind of "side by side" error and the driver would stop and then start over and over before stopping for good and I'd have to restart.

I think the card is fine... but I think you'd need to dig up an old driver version for it, and not use the "legacy" bs that ati has on their site.

Well as far as I know,the X1950XT is better than the 8600GTS, and older drivers shouldn't be too hard to find.

I have a XFX 9800 GT, complete in box, I can sell you for $50 plus shipping.

I'm sorry, someone might be offering to sell meh a 2GB HD4890 for $80. Considering that's overkill for my source gaming, I'll prolly end up selling that for $180 and buy an E6XXX. I'll look at the 9800GT though, thanks!

Well, I'm probably going to be getting a 4670, 4870, and 4890 for $180.

So now I need a new processor, and also a PSU. The PSU just needs to be around 450W, with 2 SATA connectors.

2gb 4890 for $80 is a great deal! My 2gb 4870 was $190 a month or 2 ago.
