Hi guys total computer noob here.

Currently I have an old desktop at home with intel E8400 chip on a LGA 775 socket. not sure how to check motherboard model (sry).

So now I need a basic graphic card that is able to power 2 1920x1080 monitors(multi display). Usage: youtube/charts/dota2. Im wondering if I buy an amd radeon R5 230 or nvidia GT610 would it be compatible with my old motherboard?

Thanks in advance!

May I know your PSU model and budget for the GPU?

thanks for your prompt reply!

coolermaster 390w. as low as possible. blush.gif

then main aim is to power 2 diff monitors and read financial charts. dont have to run dota2 at max settings.

so are the entry level GPUs I mentioned enough and compatible with my old motherboard? hmm.gif
