Hi, i'm want to buy a GPU to put on my Desktop.

The config is:
- CPU: Pentium E5800 @3.2GHz
- RAM: 2 GB DDR3 @800MHz
- HDD: 500GB SATA III 7200RPM
- Motherboard: ECS G41T-M7
- PSU: Generic PSU 200W
- Monitor: Samsung 17" 1366*768p

I have searching for GPU between $15.00~$17.00 and i see this options:

- AMD Firepro V3900 | TDP: 50W
- AMD Radeon HD 8570 | TDP: 50W
- AMD Radeon R5 240 | TDP: 50W
- AMD Radeon HD 7570 | TDP: 60W
- NVidia Quadro K420 | TDP: 41W

But i'm doubting if this PSU support this upgrade of GPU.


The finality of this PC is run Affinity Suite by Serif, Sketchup by Trimble, VSDC Video Editor by FlashIntegro and some games like:
- Farming Simulator 2017 / 2019;
- Euro Truck Simulator 2;
- CS:GO;
- Minecraft.

Run games is 2th finality of this desktop.
My expectation is run the "heavy" games like FS19 and Euro Truck Simultator 2 at 30 FPS in medium settings in 720p.

So, what the best GPU for my setup?
This PSU support a GPU like Firepro V3900?
 
yeah.... you really should replace that PSU. Its probably not even anywhere close to 200w.

The R5 240 would be the best card out of that selection IMO
 
Okay so
i may be wrong but
i think the R5240 is the fastest HOWEVER Be careful as the one in the TPU database has DDR memeory
the 8570 seems to be almost same speed but with GDDR3 which would make it much better
Also that PSU should be fine for a system of this spec but should def be on your list to replace

Unfortunately the R5 240 has less SPUs compared to the other Radeons.







All cards have a 2G option,afaik the 7570 has a 4G option.

This PSU offers 450W nominal and "real" 200W.
I'm thinking in Seasonic SS-300ES Bronze for replace this Fortrek 200W.

Ok, thanks for your answer

The Firepro V3900 don't have a 2GB VRAM Version.

And what is better, Turks or Oland architecture?

I think Oland
I would try and get the HD8570

Ok, this card goes to my upgrade check-list.

Thanks Hachi Roku, Eidairaman and FreedomEclipse❤️

Look at the Core Count, those are the SPUs 480 vs 384, 480 is way more than 384, and also there are 2GB bios in the database, it is why I know what cards have what.

Get a Turks due to hardware availability.
