i suppose the comedy option would be to buy an absolute top end banger gpu and install it into this otherwise potato machine and then it can be transplanted into the new desktop whenever i get around to building that
... but i don't want to spend that kind of money rn so it'd prob end up being the absolute cheapest one with DP
and please forgive me for using the abbreviation DP i don't have room to type out displayport every time. I KNOW what you perverts are thinking though. Deluxe Paint
I still have this card sitting here and there's not much I can do with it. The seller says they tested it, I don't have any way to prove it's not just incompatible with the 12 yr old motherboard i'm trying to use it in
But also my recent developments in GB dumping stuff have accelerated my timeline for retiring the old pc since i'm no longer reliant on its onboard parallel port so I'm not particularly bothered about giving it displayport anymore
So in the end I just wasted 50 quid
@lion i feel like people on fedi are the type to immediately jump to the most computer adjacent meaning for an initialism
@lion if you're looking for something cheap and decent with displayport get an amd rx. the 580 is super old and still plays lots of games if you need that. if not anything lower end from that family should do too
@lion just looked on eBay there's one going for 55 quid lol
@mavica_again oh nice thanks for the suggestion! that def seems like a good option for the price
@lion ... A GPU?
@Foxhack yes
@lion can i relieve you of it
@mavica_again yes absolutely
@lion what do you want for it
do you still have my address
I bought one and the PC doesn't fucking boot with it installed 🙃🙃🙃🙃💥
