Really helpful! I’m not a massive PC gamer and my existing card is a Radeon HD 5850 which has been fine until recently. Upgrading the PC but don’t want to pay silly prices for old used cards and then remembered I have a K2200 knocking about that I didn’t really consider!
thanks for the vid man, me and my partner have been looking for plausible upgrades with my situation, and this is perfect for me upgrading to this from the GT 710
I recently got one of these for my budget system I threw together to get back into gaming after I quit for some years. I am not a super heavy gamer, but I've found this quadro runs every game in my current library pretty decently as long as you manage your expectations and adjust settings accordingly. I was also able to easily modify the bios and give this thing a decent overclock which saw performance increase 10 to 20 percent in most games. The lack of full DX12 support has yet to be an issue with me and all my games start and run just fine. I'm sure it will start to become more of an issue throughout the next coming years though. But for now, this thing is doing just fine.
@@lukes2734 I used a Kepler bios editing program and then used NVflash to flash it. I took the clock settings from a random OC model of the 750 Ti which has the card running at a base clock of 1202 MHz and a boost clock of 1281 MHz. The memory is set to 1375 MHz. These are the highest clock speeds I could get the card to run at and still be stable. I left all the power and voltage settings stock, but you may be able to achieve a higher overclock with some tweaking of those. All in all, it runs great for what it is and works just fine for the light to moderate gaming that I do.
Hello, Searching online for the performance of this graphics card, I found your video and all my doubts are gone. My video card is a potato and this is a perfect solution for what I am looking for (actually anything is better than my quadro 600). Greetings from Mexico. (Excuse me if any words are wrong)
Im looking to buy a second hand PC and I must have a psychic connection with you becaus when ever I find one with a GPU I'm not familiar with you seem to have a review of it up the next day
Ha! Well, my next GPU video is about another curious, niche little device called a “GTX 1060 3GB”. You may not have heard of it, it’s pretty underground 😎
I normally hate seeing questions in the comments of videos but I can't help myself as I can't find an answer elsewhere and you might just be able to help. I run 4 monitors day to day for work (2 at 4K and 2 at FHD) on my NVS510 but now I want to dabble in some CAD and also some games. Budget is around the 230 ($/£/$) mark. I'm presently looking at the P2000. Would you recommend anything more appropriate? TIA.
Well, I don't have much experience in benchmarking cards for CAD, but from a gaming perspective the P2000 looks like a good buy on paper. The GTX 1060 would be a better buy for gaming exclusively, but i guess if you want it for something like Solidworks you'd need the hardware certification? If you can't find the P2000 for a price you like, a good runner-up would be the M4000- it has 8GB of VRAM but it looks like its overall performance is lower, and needs a PSU with a 6 pin PCIE. Bear in mind, I haven't tried either card, so this is all based on specs.
@@IcebergTech Thanks. Appreciate your time in replying. My machine (i9-9900k, 98GB and NvME) arrives next week with a P2000 card so I'll know soon enough. :)
Quadro 2200 has the right to remain silent. I got a gt 610 fanless passively cooled heat sink screwed on it. It is working well staying around 50C. I'm liking it compared to a passively cooled 610 or 1030.
Lol, it was a conspiracy theory that they had removed Afterburner overlay compatibility to hide how bad their performance was. Turns out, since I first edited the video they actually enabled it again and it was probably some overzealous anti-cheat thing. I’d have just embarrassed myself if I’d left it in!
Idk if you’ll see this. But I’m trying to find a good GPU before I go all out for a 3060ti OC. Cheapest and easiest one for me to grab atm. But. I have a Quadro 5000 as of right now. Gonna try the k2200 in a few days once I get time to take apart this other rig. I have a Dell T5500. Xeon 5930 I believe? 12 gbs of ram. Small laptop ssd and a 1tb HDD Just wondering if this would be better than the 5k or should I stick to that card instead of swapping.
I don't have any direct personal experience of the Quadro 5000, but on paper the K2200 looks like a big step up. If you can get one for a good price (up to £60, or about $80) and don't want to spend any more than that, I'd say go for it. If you have more room in your budget, GTX 1060 3GB & 6GB and RX 470/480 4GB remain the best bang for buck in used PC gaming IMO. As for your PC, I think it's based on the Intel X58 chipset with socket 1366. RandomGaminginHD just did a video on one of the top CPUs for that platform, the 6-core W3680, and he was a bit kinder to it than I would be. He was running a 2080 Super (about equal to the 3060Ti) and had the CPU overclocked to 4GHz, and he still only saw 50-80% GPU utilization in most games. If you have your heart set on a 3060ti or equivalent, you should probably factor in the price of a whole system upgrade to match.
That card did better then I thought it would. Also you should have tested Cyberpunk 2077, I doubt it would be able to run it but who knows maybe at 720p low it might.
I haven't tested a GTS 450, but suspect the answer is a resounding "yes". Techpowerup suggests the Quadro has over 2x the performance of the GTS 450, has current driver support, and works with DX12 and Vulkan.
Good video, I have a Quadro K2200 4GB but very low, I don't know why, because I Play a video 4k 60FPS and the video crahs; What can I Do? I have AMD FX 6300 Black Edition and 8GB RAM 240 GB SSD, Maybe could be the Thermal paste
If you have MSI Afterburner you can monitor your GPU temperatures, if they spike when you try to run 4K videos then repasting might help. Otherwise, try using DDU to uninstall the drivers and reinstall the latest ones, make sure you don’t need any new video codecs etc.

Great vid. I am a student with a very tight budget and I was able to buy a Dell mini tower PC with an i5-4570 CPU, Western Digital 223GB SSD, 16GB of DDR3 RAM and a Quadro K620 2GB GPU.

It's a good upgrade from a K620, but there are other good options to consider if you can get them for a similar price.
