    Hi.
    I am trying to buy GPU card to play beamng more softly.
    My computer is LG gram i5 Ram 16GB.
    I think zotach Amp Mini box is quite good, but
    it is about $270. I now it is not expensive but I want
    it to be less than $200.
    Any good recommendation?
    Thank you!

    $27? Or a GPU? You know what $20 will get you? Either a scam Gtx 980(that is actually a gts 450) or a card that is older than you. You also will not be able to plug it into a laptop(unless you get to a GPU if you have it, desolder it and solder the new one, but that is very difficult to get right.),you would need to build a desktop. Please just hold off on buying a GPU until you can afford one and build a desktop computer to go along with it.

    Honestly though, you can get some good deals on pc parts on the used market. I bought a gtx 670 for 30€ a few years ago to replace my broken amd 7970 and it would still be an okay-ish card today.

    Won't really help a laptop owner though :(

    I run an RX 580 4GB reference card, and I get 30-60(and above) on most maps with Brother_Dave's graphics mod(with PostFX preset)and relatively maxed settings(dynamic reflections at a 3 update rate and 6k tire marks are the only thing not maxed)and you can get 8GB versions for under 200 iirc
    Anything like that should do you good
    PriusRepellent's suggestion is good as well

    Alright. Here's the deal. You've got a laptop. You need an external box like the Zotac you mentioned. You also need a graphics card. Your $200 GPU just became about $470. There is no way around this. Since the adapter is already over budget, there are in fact no options for you unless you increase how much you can/are willing to spend.

    Oh, and most places don't even sell those so good luck even finding one. If you at all can, your best bet would be to get a decent desktop PC. The initial expense is higher, but then you won't have these kinds of problems.
