Get a refurb 6200. I got mine for 50 bucks off newegg.com


Now it's 59 shipped.

This card will be many times better than the x300. When overclocked, I can't tell much of a difference between it and my old 9800 pro.

I'm not sure if this is a wise idea.

According to the first post, the poster didn't care about performance or anything like that, just the price. So, there's no reason to get a 6200 other than gaming. Also, he'd be taking a chance going with a refurbished because it may still be broken or newegg may make a mistake. (search around, it's happened before)

I think you'd be happier with the card I suggested.
