It's the GT 710 2gb. It works perfectly for what i need it for, and plays the games i need it to. Also thanks to Incline @Incline for helping me buy it.
Last card i had was an AMD Radeon HD 6350, which was a 512mb card. So this one (in theory) is around 3 times more powerful?
Either way it's good for the price i paid. If i had waited a little longer or looked around more i probably could've gotten a better deal or card, but i was in a hurry to get my PC up and running again.

Mainly older ones. You know, like pre 2013.
Although the card can handle some newer tites. Such as Halo Online, Rocket League, Overwatch, DUSK and other lighter new games.

Probably not, ideally I actually want to find a job with okay pay but flexible hours so I'm not doing monday to saturday 8 to 6 suicide tier hours and have time for copes.

I've been playing all three games again, witcher 1 was a bit of a slog and now on the witcher 2. Witcher 3 is pobably one of my fav rpgs just for the atmosphere alone.

I was thinking of going for a RTX 2060, since they're fairly cheap, can't afford the 2070's and definitely not 2080's, theyre crazy prices.

rtx 2060 seems like a good value

the new naming scheme is weird to me

a 60 series card for the same price as last gen 70 series card

The prices all got jacked up around the bitcoin craze, although they really should have come down by now considering that's all died down.

My gtx 780 is on the verge of dying. Can't play anything too demanding or my gpu shuts down and I have to rest my pc. I'll need to upgrade soon as well

Please tell me someone gave that to you for free. Btw performance is mainly due to the chip architecture, not really the RAM, or even necessarily the clock speed depending on the duration between chip architecture. Graphics memory is mainly used for achieving better quality textures and resolution, it doesn't really affect performance.

However, it does seem the GT 710 is a bit over 3x faster than the HD 6350:

Honestly, I'd have a card like that for a retro build of some sort. Not very practical if you want to play new games.
