😊 In simple terms
An older MSI graphics card for $20 to troubleshoot a compatible desktop or add dedicated video outputs. It offers 1 GB of video memory and one HDMI port, one full-size DisplayPort, and one DVI-I. This is not a modern gaming card.
Before purchasing: check for space for a full-height card, the required PCIe x16 slot, and the required 6-pin PCIe power connector. The listing recommends a 500 W power supply for the complete PC; its actual capacity and your configuration must be suitable.
Tested under Windows 11 in the workshop PC. A suitable driver must be installed on your computer. The three ports do not guarantee three simultaneous displays, and the resolution listed for DisplayPort does not promise 4K at 60 Hz or 4K gaming.
Card sold separately, with protective packaging and a 30-day limited warranty from the date of billing. PC, monitor, cables, adapters, and power supply not listed are included.
