Please recommend to me a GPU which will meet my needs.
I am not a hardcore gamer. I will be mainly playing only Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 and Half Life 2 (Counter Strike). I would like to be able to play both of these games on their full respective graphics settings.
My setup already comprises and Intel Dual Core 2.0GHZ and 4GB DDR2 667 RAM.
I would like a GPU which is as cost-effective and heat-efficient as possible, whilst still performing the minor gaming tasks I desire. I definitely wouldn't wish for the fastest card that money can buy.
I would also like a removal fan so that I can mount my own cooling solution.
Second-hand or retail purchase options are both equally appealing.
I look forward to hearing your ideas. Thank you.
