Great Card for old PC

on April 6, 2016

Posted by: Wsmith317

Verified Purchase:Yes

I bought this card for a four-year-old PC with an AMD A6 with Radeon Integrated Graphics and 8GB of RAM primarily with the purpose of game playing. Contrary to other reviews, it has really helped. Given the age of my PC, there was little point in spending $300 on a card since the rest of the hardware would just slow it down. This thing was just right. Before the card, I was able to run Dying Light at about 8 FPS. After the card it continuously runs at 25-30 FPS. I've noticed similar improvements in other games as well. If this isn't good enough for you, you probably aren't shopping for cards in this price range anyway. It also allowed me to improve the resolution on my PC to 1080p and the HDMI output is great.

Installation was super simple. I had never installed a card before (or any other component for that matter), but it literally took less than 10 minutes. I booted up Windows 10 and it auto-detected the new card and I was done.

I cannot recommend it highly enough. Also, I would recommend getting this 730 1GB over the 610 2GB. They are the same price, but for gaming, the 730 with less RAM is a better performer (in my opinion).

My Best Buy number: 2001211850

I would recommend this to a friend!
