May 16, 201313 yr Here's a good deal on a PCI video card I've found: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000G6U2W4/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Cheers, NM
May 17, 201313 yr Just be aware that looks like a VGA plug, fine if you have the adapter or a monitor that takes those. Cards with SVGA/DVI outputs are unfortunately a little bit pricier...
May 17, 201313 yr Should be obvious, but just to be sure ... this is a PCI card; NOT a PCIe card or (for older systems) an AGP card. So be sure your system has a PCI slot -- many newer systems do not. As already noted, it also just has VGA output ... that's still fine for most purposes, but just be sure you're not expecting DVI or HDMI. Also, as is equally obvious, this is a VERY basic, low-performance card => fine for UnRAID console use; but don't expect any performance out of it if you're using it for general PC use. One other note: If you need a low-cost PCIe card instead, just sign up for Newegg's "Shell Shocker Deals" ... at least once every couple weeks there's a PCIe card in this same price range. ... the card IS a good deal for the price => you just want to be sure that a PCI card is indeed what you need. I've had more than one person buy a video card, then call me up and ask why it wouldn't fit their PC
