Nice thread. Smile

A really good GPU for the price would be a GeForce GT 240 (GDDR5).
It would compare to the Radeon HD 6570,
and not come too short of the HD 6770, either.

I know Newegg has had various models available at refurbished prices for a while now.
Here' one I see now:

I've also seen one right on EVGA's site,
and it was only $40 on there...

Just scroll to the bottom.
There's also a 1GB version for $50.

Good suggestions, thanks! I'll add them to the list.
CPU: AMD Phenom X4 960T Black Edition @ 4.00 Ghz
RAM: 4GB (2X2GB) DDR3
GPU: Radeon HD 6870 (2GB)
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64 / Archlinux

I also have a lot of fun LEDs in my case, which help me look like a pro l33t gamer, and also function as nightlights because I'm mortally afraid of the dark.

Eitherway the 7770 I saw in a dutch shop (No Sale) For about 109 Euro's Smile and it'll probably be faster then the GT240 Rezard said Smile Eitherway it is a true fact that the Phenom II CPUs are getting quite rare, mainly due to Bulldozer Smile
