Cheapest available on the market in Australia right now!? Supports 4K! I know the 4000 series is the hot new thing, but for those that want a smooth 1080p experience this will work well. When paired with the new Ryzen 7 should scream.

    You could get an rdna2 6400 for not much more and it's a way better card, awful as it is. How do these old things still keep getting sold?

      That's 2-3x the price. This is for the frugal gamer. We're a small committed community of 720p gamers.

        Well a gt 1030 can be found for the same price and performs leagues better than this, it’s also

            • checkingthisout on 11/10/2022 - 12:48

              @m0tyrider: I wouldn't dare! I'll spend $4.75 on a cheap USB mouse any day of the week though! But only if it comes with nice RGB and a mouse pad!

        • bunnybash on 11/10/2022 - 12:17

          Also the 1030 only had 2gb I think. So I she got some use cases the 1030 is a better option, it is memory constrained.

        If you can only afford a $110 ripoff card you should maybe dedicate your time to getting a qualification rather than gaming and save your money for food and rent.

      Yes, should be $1100 if it had GPU mining support in 2021.

    DDR3 (not GDDR) model so would even be much worse than most benchmarks suggest, if that's possible. Ancient junk for relatively a lot a money.

        Maybe 8-9 years ago it was a great bang for buck card, but not now at $110.

        You're either sockpuppeting or badly need DYOR. Recommending people buy this for old games today is both terrible technical and financial advice. This was ~$150 at launch… 9 years ago.

    • McOzbargainer on 13/10/2022 - 19:45

      Rather useless deal

  • CarbonTwelve on 11/10/2022 - 10:51

    $110 for a 9 year old graphics card? Just pick up something second hand. You can pick up a GTX 1050 for ~$120 off eBay, and that'll perform 2-3x faster than an R7 250.

      Comments from 9 years ago on google are positive.

      "This card is gigantic. I have a pretty decent tower from iBuyPower and putting this card in, went clear up to almost the mounting brackets for the hard drive."

  • Wafflel on 11/10/2022 - 10:53

    That's a wad of cash for a hopelessly outdated and underpowered card. It was not good even when it was new (in 2013!)

    You'd be much better off finding something on the used market or saving up a bit longer. This card isn't worth the money.

    • checkingthisout on 11/10/2022 - 10:57

      Can't get much for $110 brand new these days, apart from getting this beast brand new!

      • LuslecGrace on 11/10/2022 - 11:34

        If ur planning on spending just 110$ on a gpu, how much are u planning for the motherboard, cpu, case, ram? Cuz it seems to me u want to buy just new parts and spend as little as possible! I'm betting u would put this in a build that costs less than $300 (if thats even possible) and try to game the new MW lol. Extremely bad advice recommending a card that is considered ancient.

        Games are moving forward so they need more power and GDDR, not the opposite way…

        • checkingthisout on 11/10/2022 - 11:37

          Can make a nice 30FPS rig all brand new to play LoL on low or sims on ultra res.

          • LuslecGrace on 11/10/2022 - 11:44

            @checkingthisout: 30 fps is unplayable on LOW

              @LuslecGrace: not for the elite frugal gamer

                +1

                @checkingthisout: Buy better parts, pay using afterpay, zip or whichever bnpy service u want, then pay in smaller chunks and stretch it (if applicable) as much as u can if ur that frugal.

                A word of advice though! U can be frugal with everything else, just dont cut out money to buy cheap and bad parts for ur pc, at most ur looking at 1 year of stressful game playing. U could instead opt for a pc thats worth say no more than $800, get it and play for at least 4 years of decent unstressful gaming (if u dont mind medium settings in some games or maybe even low in others but u will most likely get 60 fps!)

                • checkingthisout on 11/10/2022 - 12:34

                  @LuslecGrace: Good advice for those in the $800 range, and sound advice for those of us in the $250-300 range.

                    @checkingthisout: If ur budget is $300, it is much better getting a ps4 or xbox one - used is even cheaper assuming they work perfectly fine.

                    • checkingthisout on 11/10/2022 - 12:47

                      @LuslecGrace: Also good advice, always options in the low end.

                        @checkingthisout: It's much better and u will have an easier time, i still have my xbox one from like 2017-2018 for only ~$230. Plays all games at 60FPS max settings

    Best to spend your money on something better. OP claims "smooth 1080p experience". Perhaps on the desktop, but not in any graphically intense games.
    For a little bit more, you can get an rx 470/570 used which is much better value than this for a smooth 1080p experience

    • checkingthisout on 11/10/2022 - 12:33

      This will play LoL a graphically intense game on low at at-least 30fps.

      It’s the opposite of E waste. 9 years old and still a frugal beast perfectly capable of 720-1080p gaming.
