Does anyone have an old GPU they don't want anymore?

Just kind of in desperate need of a card.
Learned first hand from buying NnT off GoG just how shite my system really is..

First make sure all your game settings are down. I know that sounds silly but I have heard so many people whine about a game being slow and they have med graphics on with x4 anti aliasing.

Also try windowed at lower resolutions!

I've tried that, and this was taken on 640x480.
My average frame rate is a good..4ish.

I know, you have all the right to laugh and question how my poor PC hasn't gone tits up by now.

What are your specs? By the sounds of things, your PC is really old. And getting a new GPU won't be the only thing you need.

4 gigs of ram, an AMD IIx2 235e (2.7GHz -_-), and a GeForce 6150se integrated.
Surprisingly, i get decent framerates with League of Legends.
I can't explain it.

I can. LoL has low system requirements.

On the old Summoner's rift I averaged about 15, but with the new Beta SR it went up to a good..25-30ish.
League hasn't always been this kind.

Yeah you need a new rig if you wanna play New 'N' Tasty unfortunately.

Yeah that's why I was just wondering if any of ya'll had any spare parts lying around.
At this point I'm hurting for new parts, but the monthly budget is almost nonexistent for any kind of extra spending at the moment.
