fosgatefan821 Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 At my job my print guy uses Photoshop, in design and a few other programs. He has a new 24" LED monitor but just a VGA out going to it. I want to look at a descent cheap video card with a HDMI output since he monitor supports it. This is the monitor he has: http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=c01153857 HP Pavilion a6230n It has a PCI Express 16X that can be used. Is there a descent graphics card we can get just to make the graphics better? trying to stay in the $50-$100 value, I know that is not much. Even if I can get a good used one will work.

Krakin Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 You shouldn't need much for just Photoshop, I'll give a look on NewEgg for you real quick. Krakin's Home Dipole Project http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/186153-krakins-dipole-project-new-reciever-in-rockford-science/#entry2772370 Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist? I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . . What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself but what has drawn your attention in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears, thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.

Krakin Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 This may be overkill for Photoshop as photoshop doesn't have many GPU based functions. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121721 If you want something cheaper you might look at this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121439 Those are nice cards, just old now (won't matter for life span if buying from NewEgg). I just don't want to recommend something too cheap and it being up being a shitty product.

RainStryke Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 That's a pretty old desktop. That's around the time when PCI-E 1.1 was around and a there were a lot of incompatibilities with newer video cards. The motherboard BIOS might have some issues recognizing a the newer video cards. To play it safe, i'd get this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130585 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fosgatefan821 Posted June 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 Awesome, thanks a lot. He needs it to just have great picture quality if possible for the lowest price if possible, I know I cant get a great one due to it being so old. If he has the slightest difference in color when he doing banners, business cards and what not it can hurt profit. Since the vga is horrible and he had mistakes I figured I would try this route.
