    As ernsteiswuerfel wrote, this depends on the meaning of 'best'. You wrote "most modern", which I thought to refer more to feature set (newer standards etc.) than to speed.

    You may try. Some cards work and some don't, and nobody seems to know why.

    > Isnt this HD5450 lower end card?

    Yes, it's a low-end card from a more modern (4 generations) series of cards than Radeon X1000 series.
