Hey everyone!
I got 64bit I5 6th gen Windows 10 PRO w/ 8gb ram and no GPU and graphics card. I got some questions here:
1. Will it work if install graphics card in my pc without GPU? GPU is expensive and I don't have enough money yet to buy one, I just want to make some improvements for my PC so I'm looking to install graphics card first
2. Which GPU compatible for my pc? A GPU that not that expensive but can give me some fair fps for playing games like valorant, pubg and GTA V
My Processor is: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6500 CPU @ 3.20GHz 3.19 GHz

Hi:
I don't understand what you mean by the PC having no GPU.
Are you saying that the onboard Intel graphics adapter on the motherboard is not working?
If that is the case adding a graphics card may or may not work.
It depends if it is just the onboard GPU or the motherboard itself.
How much do you want to spend?
You can buy a used but tested and working Nvidia GT 730 low profile card on eBay for a reasonable price.
You need to make sure it comes with the low-profile mounting bracket.
You can buy Dell branded or other branded cards. Doesn't have to be HP.

hi
sorry but check, if you want good conditions, depending on the settings / desired graphics quality, a low-end graphics card may not be suitable
