      @Gaming with Purv3xh trust me it's a manually changed name because he has to go in his settings to change it. Of course it'll show a different GPU in afterburner, This is rivatuner. Look it up if you don't believe me.

    This was my very first GPU. Back in 2017*, I was able to purchase the exact card in this video at around $70. I threw it in a used Dell Optiplex, and it served me well for a few years. I was able to play most eSports games at a stable FPS, as well as titles like GTA V, Life Is Strange, and Borderlands 2. It gets the job done if all you play is indie games and eSports games like LoL, Valorant, and CS:GO.

    I own this card ($68 in 2017). The GT 1030 was designed for home theater PCs, not gaming, which is why it can drive a 4K panel.
    It ended up going into budget gaming PCs during the last mining apocalypse. Until the release of the low profile 1650, it was the best available for any small form factor build.
    It is great in my HP z210 (4c/8t @3.3Ghz, 16Gb ram). It is still a fine card for anything outside of AAA 1st person shooters from the last couple of years. I understand that Zach is unaware of any gaming outside of that genre; but it is good for what it is actually designed to do.
    The games that I actually played and enjoyed with this card include:
    Diablo III
    Doom (2016)
    Grim Dawn
    Hellbound
    Sunless Sea
    Torchlight 1, 2, 3

I am going to build 2 computers with decent spare parts and sell them for a reasonable cost to someone getting into entry level gaming computers.

    When I built my first put together PC, I was entering the hell of the last Crypto Bubble. At the time I was a little desperate as my Laptop I was using died, and my only other PC was an old XP Prebuilt from Gateway. I did do my research and did look for GTX 1050 and its variants, but everytime I hit the product pages, they were all gone, and the better 560/570 were getting swept up as well.
    This thing was my only hope to getting into, and I have all my respect to it for allowing me to do more than it had any right to as well as introducing me into the custom pc market one baby step at a time.

I got a i3 10100f 8gb ddr4 @ 3000 mhz (motherboard only supports 2666 mhz) and my gt 1030 (gddr5 version) while it is bad it isn't the worst thing I could have right now.

    A great alternative in my opinion to the GT 1030 is the Nvidia T400, its roughly the same size, newer, same 30w maximum, according to the comparison I looked at it performs about 30% better than the GT 1030, but this is all on paper I haven't tested it.

    Normally I would agree with you Zach, but here I can't. If you have the chance to get this card, DO IT. I had another version of this card at one point, then I got a GTX 1650, and honestly for games like GTA V I would much rather play on the GT 1030 because on that game I got a better performance out of the 1030 than I am the 1650. With the 1650 I am getting an average of 30-35 FPS 1080 normal where as the 1030 I was getting 60-70 FPS average believe it or not.

    Zach , why is that we saw GTX 960 on the MSI afterburner stats of the video?

  • @Bandoughha
    @Bandoughha 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    GTX 980, 980TI, and 970 should be pretty good still. Should perform around 1070 and 1060 levels right?

    • @legitmedia9671
      @legitmedia9671 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      980 ti is 1070 performance and if you over clock you will get close to 1080 aswell as 2060 perfomance maxwell architecture loves to be over clocked. 970 and 980 fall between around 1060 ti performance.

    If you want a 1060/580 level of performance for £100 get a R9 290/290X, just make sure you have a good 600W PSU at the minimum

    If you put one of those (which btw is a 4x PCI-e Gen3) into a MBoard which is merely Gen2, you end up bandwidth saturating too early and lose a 'theoretical' 15% GPU performance approximately _(depending on the games and benchmark software of course)._ The card edge-connector (redesigned) would need about a 7x/6x slot and a bit (theoretically) in a Gen2 to get the full bandwidth it needs (even in a 16x slot because the card is 4x). Think it over. See?
    If you use an AM3+ MBoard with a Gen3 slot (e.g. GA990x chipset) and benchmark it with an overclocked (including BCLK) fx4100/4300 or fx6300, compare it then to the same CPU (same 16GB DDR3 1600MHz) and nvidia1030 with a Gen2 MBoard. BTW yes it is worth trying in on both linux and MSwindows. Use Win8.1 if needed and Win10 _(but equally for both rigs for fair MBoard driver comparisons)._
