Product: Example: Pavilion p6720f
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Like others here I am having problems with the video hardware on my old Pavilion p6720f desktop.  Unlike the others I have seen here I don't have to have, not could I afford top of the line gear.  I just want to be able to use my computer.  Any simple, economical suggestions?

Hi:

 

Suitable replacement video cards for less than $50 would be either the:

 

Nvidia GT 610

 

AMD Radeon HD 6450.

 

If you really want to go cheap, I like the used but tested Dell Radeon HD 2400 Pro cards you can get on eBay for $10.

 

You will need a DVI cable and connection for one of those.
