      I keep an old GT 730 2GB (Zotac fanless) around as a backup card. Because it's low profile and has only a 23W power draw I call it "ol' reliable". I use a GT 1030 2GB (30W) in my sff "Linux box", and a GTX 1050 Ti 4GB full sized (75W) in my Windows 10 tower. The late nights with my GT 730 playing L4D2 and CS Source, oh the memories...

    I really enjoy my amd 7570 GDDR5! I found it for only $20 CAD and it's great for older games using windows 7 as well. My Steam and GOG games run really well. The Ghostbusters game from 2009 runs so smoothly. On emulators, it's really fast with my i5 2400. Windows XP was an excellent OS as well. I ran it on an older laptop for 4-5 years that came with Vista. XP was made for older games.

    Another gpu worth considering is the firepro v3800, it's basically a hd 5570 and can be had for super cheap on ebay, it should perform somewhere around or better than the quadro 600 and other GF108 gpus and absolutely blows any Caicos (hd 64xx/74xx/84xx) gpu out of the water.

    Hi All, dam i missed this video release last night and just flicking through it while having a coffee at work.
    Nice work on the variety of cards. I have read all the comments to now, and i just need to add that the HP8200 and I5-2400 is a bit modern for a retro computer, but the beauty of these machines is that they are plentiful and cheap, also they wont really have the capacitor plague problem.
    I purchased one of these machines after watching Phils video almost 12 months ago, it was originally set up with fresh windows 10 and i used dos box for the older games.
    Since then i have reformatted the hard drive , installed Dos 6.22 on the first partition, Win XP on the second and Win 10 on the third. Obviously old dos games will run but the speed sensitive will not even doom 1 and 2 crashes as the clock speed is to fast but that is what Zdaemon is for as well as the fan made recompiled windows versions of Duke Nukem and Command and Conquer engines.
    Back to the point, having a modern machine that can play the older win95-XP games is a excellent proposition, my machine has the GT1030 SFF card, but for XP i just use the standard VGA drivers it is a bit of a compromise as i might as well be using the onboard video chip, but the GT1030 is great for when using Win10
    When i get home i will watch it all and also listen to it.
    Regards
    George

  • @DennisRamberg
    @DennisRamberg 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Hi Phil, great video like always! I really enjoy the thorough analysis you do in these kinds of tests. One thing I would like to point out, which can perhaps be a topic worth exploring in the future, is that Nvidia cards usually have far less cpu utilization over OpenGL and DirectX8-11 than AMD. Although I really like AMD, their architecture definitely shines the best with newer APIs like Vulkan or DX12. But building retro gaming PCs however, Nvidia has always had the edge when it comes to removing CPU and memory bandwidth bottle-necking, since their DirectX and OpenGL implementation has always been far more efficient on software side of things.
    The reason for this is basically that GPU instructions are constantly checked with the CPU main thread on these older APIs. (OpenGL being even worse than DX11) This wasn't really a problem with high clocked single- or dual-core CPUs when most people were running 480p-768p, but as graphics hardware grew stronger, our screen resolutions larger, the main thread got much easier filled up with GPU-instruction checks. Especially since these low profile systems tend to have lower clocked CPUs. Because of this nvidia is usually a safer bet when creating retro systems if you want to get the most out of your CPU. Unfortunately I have no experience in this matter when it comes to Windows XP. But perhaps it's worth checking out.

    I wish you would have thrown the AMD Oland cards into this mix. The HD8570, R5 240 and R7 240 would have compared favorably with the GT630/710 and the R7 250 has similar performance to the 7750 but is pretty much guaranteed to be low-profile. I’ve also found the 250 super easy to overclock all the way, safely, with a dual-slot cooler (also easy to find on ebay).

    I would like to add... Best and most allround compatible for a SFF PC, I think is the GT 730.
    Make a note that Some of these older HP's LGA775 SFF boards, dosn't have 75W available on the PCI'E slot. So we want something that only draws about 30W. The GT 730 GDDR5.
    But if you are sure that the board can deliver 75W, a GTX 750(ti) LP is really good. Say welcome to a Crysis 60pfs PC !

    I would just like to mention that the intel integrated graphics on Ivy Bridge (HD 4000) will equal the 60 FPS cards like the GT 710 and GT 630. Haswell (HD 4600) will equal the performance of the Radeon HD 7570 or there abouts, being faster than the 60 FPS group but slower than the GT 730. Sandy Bridge (HD 2000) integrated graphics will be slower than your 30 FPS group, but not by much...and should offer playable performance on most titles, even if you have to turn the resolution and detail levels down on some of the more demanding AAA tittles. Before Sandy Bridge = forget it.
    Also the AMD APUs should offer similar performance range from 30 FPS all the way up to HD 7750 levels of performance depending on the specific model, for example, the A10-7850K Kaveri APU about equals the HD 7570. The new AMD Ryzen 3 2200G 4c/4t APU with RX-Vega 8(compute unites) $99 runs about equal to the HD 7750...maybe slightly faster.

    Hi Phil, I love your really informative, premium-presented content very much & you've helped me out in several cases to choice parts for my Retro-System-building. I'm hoping now, that I can give you an advice for the GTX 750 in low profile format for the HP SFF and it's weak PSU from my own experience:
    Don't search for it, because it's not only rare, the available models mainly doesn't fit the HP-specific power-support of the PCI express-slot (only 35W in opposite to the mainly specified 65W).
    My own, with high expectations bought KFA2 GTX 750 TI OC in low profile format (but 2,5 slots widht, no extra power-cable needed) ran like a racehorse, but in the first benchmarking it frozes my whole PC after only 1,5 minutes or so. No BSOD or error-message, just frozen - only to "shutdown" via unplug the power cable in "the hard way"was possible.
    I did a little bit investigation and I found out, the "spikes" in power-consumption are too high for the HP-PSU (you know, we have to live with this in such SFF-builds), so that I've to bought another card. Luckily I found a pretty good alternative, the GTX 745 from an OEM-build (in germany called Medion), which will do the job in very good manner. A little bit lower performance, but no freezes of the system and only 1 Slot width. It's offering DVI-I and HDMI only, but who cares about VGA?
    The best wishes from Germany to the wonderful Australia - keep up the great work, Phil!

    I use a GT430 in my low profile XP machine. It's faster than the GT610 but probably not as fast as the 630. It's amply fast for everything I need it to do. It's most demanding application is to serve as an extra machine for the kids to play multiplayer Minecraft. With the GT430 it runs that game basically just as smooth as my "heavy" gaming PC.
    It was a significant improvement from an HD4350 that I already had (and wasn't satisfied with). It also handles H.264 acceleration in the MPC-BE player.
    I found some old reviews which showed the GT430 used very little power at an idle desktop, and that was a key concern of mine. The whole point of my low profile XP PC is that I use it as an everyday low power system. If I'm going to play a demanding game, then I fire up the heavy tower XP machine. My "heavy" is a power hog, and it's S3 standby mode doesn't even work (it wakes up dead), so I prefer not to run that machine all day long, at least not in the summer months.
    The funny thing about GT430 cards is that the models that the review sites reviewed have faster memory than the cards that actually exist. So do research on the clock and RAM configuration of whatever specific card you look at buying.
    In my case I found that the fastest readily/cheaply available model was one from Asus. But open buying the Asus, the seller sent me a Zotac. I was irritated because I knew it had slower memory. However, it turned out to be a fantastic overclocker, reaching the Asus' speeds without any issue, so I kept it and have been happy with it.
    There is a major caveat with some nVidia cards when using multiple monitors. At least with the GT2xx and GT4xx cards that I've used, nVidia's drivers will lock the card into it's high power state when there are multiple monitors. There is 3rd party software called "nVidia Inspector" which can be used to override this behavior. You can then give it a list of executables that should trigger the high power state. The software can also switch power states based on the amount of GPU load that it detects, but I found that results in some irritating visual effects when it keeps switching too much, so I prefer to use the method of listing .EXE files.
    I don't think ATI has this problem.

    I found the HD7570 to be a really good card for the money. Only about $20 and a hell of a low profile card. I've not done any real gaming on it, but I use it on an old AMD Athlon machine and it can play 1080p youtube videos with h264ify now with it.
    EDIT: It seems to bench near my old HD4670 in tests, and my old HD4670 wasn't a bad card at all despite no DX11 support.

    Thank you Phil! This is awesome!
    What is of particular interest to me is the comparison of the Radeon HD 7750 and the HD 7570 (both with 1GB of GDDR5). This is a very close direct comparison of the AMD Graphics Core Next architecture vs AMD Terrascale architecture.
    I also just picked up two matching EVGA 8800 GT Superclocked 512MB single slot cards to run in SLI. Which is era appropriate and will perform about like the 60 FPS group, maybe a little better.
    I use the 750 Ti 2GB for modern gaming. It's still relevant for modern gaming.

    You can run all those games on win 7, so id say you're better off there. Phil, keep in mind these new cards will have issues with pallet switching and other driver quirks(isometric games, diablo c&c 8bit etc) Dno about the amd cards, but nvidia for example have odd issues with opengl input lag in older opengl games. Its really hard what will work right and what will not. Relying on how things are supposed to be trying to use new hardware and drivers seems to be the only way to tell. A benchmark wont reveal it unfortunately. The frame+refresh rate, input lag, texture issues and so on is a minefield getting to work right in many games. Alot is doable with right tweaks and rivatuners fps limiter and no vsync. That limiter is a life saver getting many games to run right! Close to monitor refresh 60 or 75 seems to save many older engine quirks. Nfs underground 2 for example have post processing issues over 80fps or something. Amd cards will have texture issues

      Here's the funny position I'm in...
      I have an old Pentium III (866 MHz) machine that's really fantastic for Windows 98SE and early XP games with both a GeForce 4 Ti 4600 and FX 5950 Ultra at the ready (and soon a good ATI card too), but it starts to struggle a little bit with Far Cry at high settings, and games more demanding than that like Painkiller or F.E.A.R.
      I really didn't want to build a third computer for those kinds of games, but also really wanted to ensure that I could use a Sound Blaster X-Fi natively and that I wouldn't run into weird things like Far Cry's reflections not working on Windows Vista and up should issues like that ever arise...
      As it just so happens, compatibility tends to not be as big of a problem with those kinds of games starting the DX9 era, and so I use my modern PC with a GT 740 and WIndows XP installed on the side to run stuff that's too much for my old beige beauty, but old enough that there could be benefits to running under XP.

As you say, dx9 era works nicely on that, and 8.1 opengl 1.5 is mostly compatible with 98 then. That 4th gen is last with full xp compatibility maybe, so unless you need irq address for sound you should be fine on that. I believe sound is in some non-standard obscure place on my i3 4150 system, so i have a q9300 system for xp

      I even replaced the PSU to something I felt was a little more "safe" just in case.
      Also, I agree pretty much all of those games absolutely do work great on Windows Vista or 7. If not for really rare oddities in rare games here and there, and only exactly two quirks of ALchemy I've experienced over time (breaks on an optional echo feature in Thief: Deadly Shadows, and echoes are a little heavier than under Windows XP native), I probably wouldn't have bothered. At this point, using XP on those 2004-2006 games is "just in case" I'm not seeing/hearing things the way they were intended.

    The listed price was $15 and I offered $10 and they took it. They were selling a ton of them so they must have had a pile of old OEM stacks they were getting rid of on the cheap.
    I was VERY surprised by it's performance even on Win7 in somewhat modern games. I threw it in a cheap little Fortnite machine for my nephew and he still uses it. It runs a clean 60fps at 720p and good details. It looks as good as the console version, tbh.

      The G4400 isn't even getting maxed out on both cores and the gpu shows constant 90%+ utilization.
