Back again 
So I made a post not long ago building a low cost rig so I can get back in. A generous member gave me a R9 290 but I’m starting to have issues with it in modern games due to no longer having updated drivers; I get black screens when exiting games.
So now I’m looking for a cheap GPU that still has current drivers that offers performance around the R9 290 or better.
And if anyone can make use of the R9 290 I’ll give it away for the cost of shipping. It’s a ASUS DirectCU II R9 290. Pending
