I'm looking to buy a GPU for a budget build I'm doing for the family room. Nothing crazy, just something to watch movies, play games, ect. I prefer nvidia but am not awfully picky. It will be hooked up to a 42in 1080p 120Hz tv and i would prefer a full sizes hdmi out. SLI is a option. I'd like to keep it below $100 but will go higher for the right deal. The worst i can say is no.

I have a pair of EVGA GTX 550ti id let go for $75 (for both)... SLI bridge included.. great cards. runs things like WoW on ultra with one of them.. 2 would be even better

I might be interested in the 550s. a 270x is way out of my price range for a budget family PC. il give this a week or so, see what else comes up.

EDIT: Also i prefer to buy from someone with a bit of rep here but i will consider all offers

Was browsing through the graphics cards on amazon and found this 570 for $106. Performs like a 270 or 7870.

Was going to buy it myself, but am now looking for a pair of more serious headphones ( Audio Technica's ATH M50s)

i bid on a 580 yesterday but had to go to work. so i set it to auto bid. I set the limit at 100 and it sold for 102. i was not happy to say the least.

There is a 580 on amazon for 175 but I can get a 280x for that price

Im still in on the market BTW, I'm growing impatient and every lead i get seams to run dry :/

check out ebay for hd7850s they go for under 100 bucks or 7750s or hd7870s and r9 270 go for about 100 :p 


I wish gtx 750s and 750ti's would start popping off cheap, I've been wanting to try to pair it with my old core 2 quad rig maybe. I want to max the ram out on it but ddr2 is expensive, it has one 2gb stick 1066mhz g skill and two sticks generic samsung (I think) 1gb sticks 667mhz. Max the mobo supports is 8gb

I actually just got a msi750ti for a steal on ebay today but its not what i want. I just impulsed bought it :/  I'll give you first dibs if you want it. i really just want a 580 or to sli some 560 or 550s i wish dude up top would get back to me. People on ebay want way to much for them. its simply not worth what they are asking. A lot of stuff on ebay is crazy with prices. i saw a 760 for $700 :o  people asking $600 for a 680. do people pay that or something?

yeah it's stupid what some people are charging for CPUs as well, they want more for an i7 2600k or 3770k than they cost new, and even more than the 4770k costs haha. Or I was even looking at a budget hd6670 to pair with the core2quad and for what people try to charge for some of them, I could get the stronger hd7770 anyway >_>


how much was the 750ti and how much would you sell it for? (and does the hdmi port work.....lololol I kid :p  )

I'll take offers on the 750ti. i was going to ask 140 for it being that it's the twin frozer. but Im flexible i got it for a good deal but shipping killed me. $15 :/
