my girlfriends friend at work needs a video card for her sons pc. It's a S775 pc, 450 watt sunbeam psu with 20A on the 12v rail. She says he mainly plays minecraft.

The pc had a 8600 gts in it that died, I'm looking for a upgrade that will run off that psu. Obviously I'm looking at a used card, the cheaper the better honestly. I'm just trying to help the kid out by finding a card and installing it for him.

Let me know what you have, the price shipped to 44312 a Newegg link would be appreciated too

I have a 8800GT that I could sell locally for $20. Not sure, however, if that PSU would be enough for it.

That PSU should be okay for the GT version. I would say no if it was the GTX version.

Should be okay for the GT or GTS I would think. The Sunbeams aren't good PSU's but it should do for now.

do you even need a dedicated card for minecraft? i feel integrated should be fine as long as the CPU can handle it

It's a old socket 775 setup and the motherboard doesn't even have on board video. Hell I don't have a clue what cpu is in the thing and the people who own it don't even know. If i had thermal paste I'd remove the heat sink just so i would know.

It's probably a pentium D or a slow core 2 duo i have no idea
