Help For a Graphics Card

[DarthQuell]

Y'all, I'm trying to out together a desktop to better play PZ and a few other games.

I found a cheap graphics card that's 4GB, which is what the game requires. However, people say that it won't work for gaming in general. I want y'all's opinion/help (low on cash and can't afford something high tech or new).

Is the Nvidia Quadro FX 5800 a good card to play Planet Zoo?

That is a card made for calculating/graphics. Not for gaming. I would not buy it. What is your budget?

(It is also 15 years old)

Honestly, maybe $75, at the most

I would look for a second hand AMD RX cards. Not sure what the market is doing but look for a rx570/580/590

Ok, cool, thank you very much.
Besides eBay, any reputable places I could search (I bought one back in February, and the guy sold it to me defective)

There are several GeForce GTX 1660 Ti GPUs for bid on eBay. This is an awesome card for upgrading older PCs. I used one with
a Windows 7 PC on a 3440x1440 35in 21:9 monitor playing Elite Dangerous Odyssey at high/ultra settings. It also does fine on No
Man's Sky, X4:Foundations and X-Plane 11. Maybe you can win one or purchase a used one with this USA listing.

Just on the topic of this I was wondering what graphics cards others have and qell the game runs with certain ones?

Update: bought myself an AMD RX 580 8GB on Amazon for a huge discount (almost 50% off).

Works beautiful and the animals are way better than my wimpy 2GB integrated graphics on my laptop. I don't regret it one bit.
Now to copy my laptop hard drive onto my desktop hard drive
