Hmm, the current GPU I have. at least it can run Userbenchmark Tests at 30 fps. it somehow beats GT 710 at the cost of Old Drivers, hotter and louder. its not good and not very bad. this rusty GPU least can run GTAV 40 FPS low settings 720p :( and this isnt capable of DX12 or even Vulkan. I'm gonna upgrade to RX 470 (AKA the Giant of Budget Cards) inshallah soon!

Good for office work and many video games but dont be hoping for high frames when using this i get roughly 20 to 40 fps on games such as COD BO3 and PUBG so on...

Just buy a GTX 460 if you're looking for a cheap graphics card used. I can't justify the used $50 dollar price tag given that with the same money you can get a 470 or for cheaper a 460.
