unfortunately, these GPU companies have made us reconsider such old GPUs, when we should be getting powerful GPUs at low prices cause I guess this is how the world works, the more the tech advances the more affordable it gets, but these companies god damn it
I'm with ya. Pricing is so backwards, even now that the pricing is returning to 'normal'. At least I didn't have to pay $150 for this 960 from a scalper!
Dweeb, you should feel honored. I normally watch a Markiplier video with breakfast on my big PC screen, but today, I'm watching this video with breakfast and on the big PC screen. Hope you become as big as him someday. Or at least as big as I don't know, Austin Evans or Linus tech tips. I hope you get big enough that you have to hire some employees to help.
I have a MSI gtx 960(4gb) then upgraded to a MSI 3060 last year it's still a good card so put it in my son's pc considering some GPUs now released are still 4gb vram it's fine for the indie games
I bought a FTW EVGA version of the card for $60 off Facebook marketplace and sold it on ebay for $150 in 2021 It was only the 2GB model, and it could barely run some newer call of duties.
Videorequest: compare the 960 in 1080 p low and 720 p ultra in games. With res being thr biggest problem for lower vram cards it would be intresting to see how it looks
Funny you should ask--I'm typing away on my seven-year-old Linux desktop machine, with an AMD FX-8370 and a 2GB GTX 960. I'm not a gamer, so I've been fine with the 2 GB--made no difference to me. I'm about to move up, still staying behind the curve; Ryzen 5700X and Radeon 6600 in an AsRock Deskmeet x300.
Hey Dweeb, I just recieved my socket A board I ordered from ebay. It pulls its amps from the 12v rail instead of the 3v and 5v ones like many did back then. Brand new, still in the bands, for only $60 Gonna build a '98 retro rig, for this original Doom big box I just picked up in a resale shop for $30, this versionoftem goes for $1k+ on ebay. I'm talking the original 5-disk 3.5" floppy version that's made for dos. Yes, it works, a friend has a dos based retro rig and we installed it to check. You have my permission to feel jealous.
NIIIIIICCCCEEE SCORE! The jealousy is strong with this one (points to self). Young TechDweeb DREAMED of having a PC that could run doom. I did anyways, although I had to shrink the screen to about 2x3" just to get a playable fps.
@@TechDweeb ya, I found an all-copper heat sink for it. Surprisingly, I'm having an easy time finding heatsinks but not fans in the right size so much. But I plan to get an athlon xp 3200+ and cool it with this heatsink and a cheap pink 120mm led fan via adapter to contrast the purple pcb of the mobo. Trying to find a ti4600 is proving to be a motherless goat. Now that I think of it, was the fastest nvidia card for 98se the tir600 or ti4800?
This is the same card i had on my old gaming pc. PC sadly died a while ago though. Something went pop and genuinely took every component out with it lol.
Nice card for a valueeee! 😍 Btw dweeb. Can i upgrade my i3 8100 to rtx 3050?? Im using gtx 1050 2gb card. What card should be the perfect pair for my i3 8100? Thanks dweeeeb! ❤️
The i3 8100 would bottleneck a 3050. I better pairing would be something like a 1650. But if you go for the 3050 you could upgrade your CPU down the road to something like an 8700.
Depends on the game. Some games the 1050 ti does better, most games they are about equal, and some games the 960 wins out. I'm going to estimate the 1050ti is 5% faster at most on average.
@@michaelopokudanso5177 hey Michael, unfortunately not. I assume you live in the us, you can get a used GPU from eBay that will perform on par with gtx 960 for very little money
Neat! I've been interested in that one ever since I saw RandomGaimingInHD's video on it. It seems like performance somewhere between the T400 and the T600, would you agree?
Fully agree Forza 5 indestructible cars ruin any idea of realism and doesnt make the game any more fun. I prefer Motorsport forza 3 on my old xbox 360 with steering wheel.

Is gtx 960 4gb same as gtx 1050ti? But ngl I like your rx6400,t600 videos.
Yeah. I was originally wrong. It is close to the 1050ti. The 1050ti is slightly more powerful.
Depends on the game. Some games the 1050 ti does better, most games they are about equal, and some games the 960 wins out. I'm going to estimate the 1050ti is 5% faster at most on average.
@@TechDweeb I think its due to the newer arcitecure than gtx 960 memory bus etc it can be equivalenet to rx 6400 sightly.
