I’ve been fighting with some issues on my unraid server recently and I’m at a point where I need a graphics card to see the actual video out as the machine boots. The psu in the chassis has no additional connectors that I could use for additional power to a graphics card.

Can someone point me in the direction of a super cheap graphics card that will be used for console only and not 3d graphics or gaming.

    The nVidia GT series are cheap, the 710 series are the cheapest new cards that I have found.

      That would be my suggestion. They only take a single slot and some are even passively cooled.
