The $50 GPU Upgrade - Transforming an HTPC into a Gaming LAN Box

Hey, everyone!

Today we're upgrading the HTPC by adding an NVIDIA GTX 780 GPU. This will allow us to take this small box to LAN parties, or places where we can game on it. The card we're using is an EVGA GTX 780 SC 3GB card which was purchased on sale from EVGA's website. The cost was a ridiculous $49.99!

It will accompany the Intel Core i7-4770 system which up to this point we were using the intergated GPU to watch movies and shows.

System Specs:
Intel Core i7-4770
8GB DDR3 Corsair Vengeance RAM
240GB SSD from PNY (XLR8)
250GB HDD from Seagate
RAIDMAX Element ITX-101BPS Case
