A GPU for the price of Dinner

[@BudgetBin]

No one noticed it, but I forgot to update Siege's frame data when I was editing! I knew I was forgetting something when I was uploading this video! Here is the updated frame data: Max: 94 Avg: 75 Min: 54 1%: N/A .1%: N/A I guess because the average was nearly the same as Battlefield V's my brain just thought I already entered it in from my data sheet. Regardless, what I said still holds up! Also thank you for reading this comment! lol

[@RuruFIN]

That's basically a cut-down HD 7790 with 2GB VRAM. I'd say that even that's too expensive for a lower tier card, as with luck you could get something way better from that era.

[@kokodin5895]

yes it is and 2gb hd7790 or r7 260x can be found for less and you can always flash 7790 to 260x if you want true audio working

[@Ava_Hart]

perfectly in-depth, easily digestible, and great edits to boot. (: I learned more than I thought I could today. Looking forward to the next!

[@LowcastleTech]

I got confused by the title and thought I could eat the GPU for dinner. It was very painful... Someone has to take responsibility for this Budget Bin!

[@BudgetBin]

You are right, someone should take responsibility! I'll go right ahead and start typing up my yelp review!

I like this new format, its different from your usual stuff but equally good!

[@GeriZavalani-ct5in]

I still use this, it's my daily driver. Got it for 35$ back when the whole lockdown started, and still get to play Doom Eternal on it

[@MarcosCodas]

This price tier is under appreciated. My cousin got an nvidia 760 for $25 Canadian and honestly, it’s far better than it had any right to be.

[@BudgetBin]

The GTX 760 is a great budget card, despite it losing support in recent years. If I had the time and know-how, I would make a website that automatically tiered the prices, and kept them up to date to show what cards you could find at certain price points. There are so many great budget cards out there!

[@johnl5753]

I had one of those cards for a couple months. I had a 19" 900p monitor paired with this card. Overwatch, Fortnite, CS GO, VALORANT had great FPS. It's an esports budget card.

[@johnl5753]

Also, the older triple AAA single player games will be fine.

[@WeatherMan2005]

Great video i like all the unique segments and intos to your videos

[@BudgetBin]

Thanks, I'm glad you liked them! :)

[@abunk8691]

The unique sketch style intros you have on every video is something I liked when I found your channel and even a sibling of mine who isn't into PCs found the style "cute and fun". Only suggestions I have is to change up the text color for the benchmark numbers as blue on the orange-purple gradient isn't that easily readable (a lighter blue or white would be more readable since there's more contrast), and to add the name of the game along with the text to make it easier to find when going back through a video to find a particular benchmark. I'm looking around the cheaper end of the used GPU market myself and considering something that can do hardware decoding of video for HTPC like use, but sadly the market in my area is weirdly expensive and there's more options of used GPUs coming directly from China with the likelihood they've been mined on and are dirty so it's not that easy to find a deal on a GPU.

[@abunk8691]

I was looking into the R7 360, R7 260X, RX 550, RX 560. But those 4 are all around $35~40 in my area. The GT 1030 would have been a nice fit for my use case with the balance of power efficiency, and having the hardware decoding I need, but became disqualified instantly due to the price. For the price of a GT 1030 (new or used) I could just get a GTX 1050 which is stupid that they're around $80~95 and just a bit more would be a used RX 5500XT which would blow those out of the water.

[@OctoomyYTOfficial]

Your underrated, you make some good videos!

[@BudgetBin]

Thanks!

[@MadIIMike]

It's almost the same as the FirePro W5100 you previously had on the channel, except the clock speeds and amount of Vram (and maybe driver support, but both should run with 22.6.1). :P

[@killer_god-to7qo]

The 8 bit music in background is relaxing 👍🏽

[@JamesSmith-sw3nk]

Good video. If your budget is this card then look at the "Top 10 games of the year" from 2008-2016. It should play them fine, maybe even great. No one who has this low of a budget will be playing recent AAA games because of their cost. Older games are often only a few dollars each on key shops or Steam sales, etc.

[@FarBeyondDriven1978]

You deserve waaaaay more subs!!!

[@BudgetBin]

Thanks :)

[@01RIE01]

I agree with your conclusion. I have an old PC (Phenom X6 1090T/GTX 1050) and it's just fun to see what it can run and how far I need to lower the settings to get things playable! Subbed, hope for more great content, cheers!

[@BudgetBin]

I really like that Era of AMD CPUs despite what people think of them. I hope to maybe show off some stuff like that in future videos!

[@Vortex_69]

Can i know your pc specks?

[@asdasqwd]

you still make great videos i love this channel

[@BudgetBin]

Thanks, I really appreciate the support! :)

[@MrEdioss]

Nimez drivers + overclock would make it better.

[@gabecapps]

This graphics card really surprised me! Makes me want to use this in a sub-$100 xbox one/ps4 console killer!

[@BudgetBin]

I know of a couple ones, I've always wanted to do a video on them, but I feel like many people have talked about it before. I'm glad you liked this GPU though!

[@gabecapps]

@@BudgetBin the good thing about computers, is that it is about preference. your opinion on gpu’s that would be really good could differ from person to person!

I got into pc gaming by picking up a used hp desktop in january 2015 and made my steam account the next month. This hp had a amd quad core from around 2011 and the graphics was built into the motherboard. It didn't run games super great so i stayed mostly in the older easy to run games that you can get cheap like the half life games. For christmas i asked for a r7 370 witch i spent a good amount of time trying to find something good that wasn't super expensive. It was $119 before tax and had a $10 rebate. It was a massive difference from what old radeon graphics it had and i was perfectly happy with how well games played. Though even a few years later if you tried to play new games the 2gb of vram just killed the performance. The biggest show of that was when i got another used computer and swapped parts to use it as my computer and tried to play metro exodus when it was on gamepass. The better computer had a i7 3930k and 16gb ram but it didn't run well even at 720p. It was around ~20 something fps so for me i still played it and enjoyed the game but it just isn't a powerhouse like you said in the video. Though both the r7 360 and 370 are well suited for older and most indies and if my card didn't die in 2022 after 6 years of service i would probably have kept it as a backup for when i got something newer. This would still be a good option for a system for a kid that wants to play minecraft and other easy to run games.

[@kokodin5895]

i am still thinking about making 4gb version of 260x because 2gb framebuffer is just too small for modern games i just need to hone my skills in bga soldering

[@vik6619]

good video

[@jaredreeks7798]

I am picking up gtx 1050ti's for this same price.

[@crystal_is_cozy]

lol I loved your intro

Thanks :)

[@MarcosCodas]

Great video 👌🏻

[@UserMum7512]

I like the fact you think I can actually afford AAA games lol

[@butai2116]

Random suggestion, but can we get Deep Rock Galactic as a benchmark game? With that game you can get the Hell Divers 2 experience on a budget.

[@BudgetBin]

I will definitely be adding it to my benchmark library in future videos!

[@butai2116]

@@BudgetBin Awesome thank you! Also great editing for this video!

[@kparserpcs6699]

I recommend looking at the quadro k1200 with a mini dp to hdmi cable for 25-30$ it is like a gtx 750 4gb

[@XavierTheKing]

Can u help me pick between R7 360,HD 7790 and GTX 650TI?;-; im a low budget so

[@BudgetBin]

Well, personally as of the moment, the R7 360 ain't too bad!

[@victordehaciendas]

personally I had an R7 370 as my first card and played overwatch and gta V just fine ohh an H1Z1 haha good times it was a winforce model too

[@baracdj]

it is a bit faster than gt 1030, but gt 1030 i 30w and this gpu 100w, btw nice to see project zomboid in your test video

[@BudgetBin]

I think the GT 1030 has its purpose depending on the build. I think if you want to buy an office PC and not have to worry about configuration, it's the card for the job. And also, I was meaning to throw project zomboid in a video sooner or later!

[@baracdj]

@@BudgetBin Yes, same for me i have i3 4360 and gt 1030, because i try to save some on electric bill, and new pc parts are expensive in my country with my wage. Today i cross on your channel and i like budget stuff so you have sub and new discord user

[@BrunodeSouzaLino]

That would be a great choice...But isn't the GTX 750Ti cheaper?

[@BudgetBin]

On average, no, but depending on the case ans scenario it could be better. Especially if you get it for a price close to this GPU.

[@shaneeslick]

G'day BB, 🤔You made a spelling mistake during "This is an Intro" no, it's a Nitro 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I have the Gigabyte OC model & good comparison for this is the GTX750, maybe a "Cook Off" video 🤷‍♂??? although the 750 is just over a year older being Maxwell insteal of Kepler it does currently still get Driver Support. Ps Very Good job on the Animations

[@BudgetBin]

I'm always glad to read your comments! And honestly, I might have to make a cook off video in the future. I like that idea. :)

[@wadewilson6628]

Almost took away the thumbs up after you said BF V was a good Battlefield. ;)

This video made me smile :) Advise on a GPU for this (my) system to max it out as far as is possible. gigabyte b75-d3v Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz 24gig RAM All i need i to know what (cheap) GPU is fit best for this. I play emulation mostly so no need for modern games thats where the Xbox is for.

Thanks, and best for the buck is probably an RX 580 honestly.

That Video was amazing and very funny XD Entertaining :D Will you give Linux gaming a go at some time? Because this is GCN and GCN is compatible with Vulcan = Proton works with Vulkan :D

[@BudgetBin]

I was actually looking into that when I was looking up the drivers. It seems very interesting, and when I get around to my Linux videos (which I hope should be at some point by the end of this year) I will be looking into those particular drivers. They seem pretty good! I am glad you enjoyed the video!

[@aleksazunjic9672]

Well ... RX 460 costs practically the same, and it is somewhat better with modern titles. If you are really buying AAA games, think about Chinese RX 580 2048 SP, much more powerful thing. All that being said, this card is good enough for 1080p low-med in games released during PS4 era (up to 2020) .

[@iceangelx22]

Pretty cool video. Didn't expect that kind of performance for that low of a price ^^

[@weissschnee3539]

I got a rx550 4gb for 25 bucks. I bought it because it was a steal

[@hill2hell]

If it was that affordable, it'll be great as a troubleshooting tool incase a person is having an issue with their PC with display issues.

[@BudgetBin]

I agree, I think it has more uses than just gaming. I actually should have seen if it was good for even light 3D modeling.

[@Chaos_God_of_Fate]

I remember the Days back in 2007 when I had a 2.8Ghz Athlon II with an x1650 pro, and 2 or 4gb of RAM (forgot what I ran back then) running Crysis at 20-30 fps with 1% lows in the single digits. And I played multiplayer that way. It was a blast and I remember it fondly. I played at custom very low settings (lower than low) on a CRT so it was pretty ugly, the difference between low and high were huge back then. Most of us online players played that way and that's just how it was. Nowadays anything below 60fps is considered unplayable by a lot of People. It's strange to see how our standards have changed so much. I'm actually replaying Crysis right now (original, not the remaster) when I have time and I get 140fps completely maxed out settings at 1440p- so much nostalgia, brings back a lot of memories, if Crysis were released Today I think it would still be a good looking game, which is kinda nuts.

The Last Good battlefiled is actually battlefield 1. Battlefield V is a joke with diversity fest in a ww2 game LMAO.
