I'm trying to revive my old gaming PC, which has been sitting idle for a while. My XFX Radeon R9 380 has died due to fan failure, and it's overheating now. While I'm aware that my setup is pretty outdated, I really just want to get back to playing games like Portal 2 without breaking the bank on a new system or high-end graphics card. I'm out of the loop on GPU prices, so I'm looking for suggestions on budget-friendly options that can get me back to gaming. My original build can be checked out here: [https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Py7kFT](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Py7kFT). Any help would be much appreciated!

It would help to know your budget! But if you're looking under $100, you might be able to score a used RX 580, which is a decent upgrade from the R9 380.
Not sure about current prices, but I'd say under $250 would be ideal if you can swing it.
