MSI LIGHTNING LE Radeon R9 290X

Built on the Radeon R9 290X, this card packs 4GB of GDDR6 memory. At 302mm long it fits most mid-tower cases; display outputs: HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 2.1. Clocks run from 1080 up to 1080 boost, drawing 150W — even modest power supplies handle it. 4GB of VRAM is tight for modern AAA games — best suited to esports.

Its $17.00 price tag places it squarely in budget territory.
