Best for Multi-Display

When people buy GPUs, it’s usually for running video games, but if you just want a display output, the AMD Radeon R5 230 might just be what you’re looking for.With just 160 CUDA cores, 625 MHz engine clock, and 1GB video memory, this card will have difficulty running modern video games and even most of the old ones. However, it’s the perfect choice for non-gamers with a CPU that doesn’t have integrated graphics or those who want to set up a secondary display.

This low profile, low power consumption card will improve multimedia performance, extend the desktop, and accelerate apps.For flexibilty of use, it comes with a Low Profile bracket so it can be used in a Small Form Factor chassis or HTPC configuration.

This GPU comes with a dual-link DVI port, an HDMI port, and a VGA port — allowing you to set up three more displays without spending a lot of money. The maximum power draw of 18 watts makes it suitable for systems with a power supply capacity as low as 300 watts.

Something to consider: To emphasize it further, this GPU is not meant for gaming, so don’t expect it to run video games well. It’s best for those who need extra space to manage non-demanding software like word documents and web browsers.
