MixyNet :
Someone mentioned that the card is from five generations back and might not be worth much. I think you should consider a more powerful GPU to match that processor. Even $100 can help you get something better.
Yeah, I understand but I'm handing this PC to my son, so I'm checking if the clock speeds are okay.
The GTS 450 is a low-end model. If your son intends to play games, upgrading would be a good idea.

This card is a basic GPU from five generations back. I think you should consider a more advanced one to pair with it. Even $100 can provide a significantly better option.

That card is an entry-level GPU from five generations back. I think you should be searching for a more powerful one to match that processor. Even $100 will get you something significantly better.
