If you can't afford a new PC right now, get a used GTX 1080 (but check if your power supply can handle it and that there is enough space in the case). With a bit of luck, you can score one for around 100€ or your local equivalent on ebay. It's still a very capable card, able to run almost every game and those that do run (which is 99% of titles out there) are running well. The main downside is that it can't really do hardware ray-tracing all that well, but since you won't be running any of those games anyway (or that one game, since I believe the new Indiana Jones, which requires at least an RTX 2060, is the only game right now that does not have software ray-tracing or conventional lighting as a fallback) with the rest of your hardware, you'll be fine. To put the performance of the old 1080 into perspective, it can (without RT, of course) run Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p/60 or 1440p/30 (high settings for both, IIRC). That's a damn good value for 100 bucks. And yes, I'm using Cyberpunk as a benchmark, because it's essentially the Crysis of our time. That said, I upgraded from this card to an RTX 2080 for 200€. Just one generation, but the differences are massive. Suddenly, there's actual ray-tracing capability (beyond running offline rendering and Quake 2 RTX at 320p) and, even more importantly, DLSS support, also known as upscaling that doesn't suck and is actually so good you'll just enable it with every game that supports it. Same amount of VRAM (8GB), which is getting a little tight, but still fine almost all the time. No game actually needs more to function right now, but there's a handful of games (probably fewer than ten) that will lock off the highest texture settings. Keep in mind that this card only makes sense if you have a reasonably good CPU already. Otherwise, it'll be throttled by your old processor. Since a 1050 Ti is a budget card, you most likely paired it with a budget CPU back then, so unless you have eight good cores that won't lose against a Pentium 4 (looking at you, AMD FX), don't get anything more potent than a GTX 1080.

I have seen HLHH units with 5-6 mini DP outputs for servers and SFF PCs running many displays.

Description mentions two OSTs, try searching from there

[@Abrifq]

Sounds too good for TTD OST But it has to be, unless SC doesn't mean StarCraft (Btw zerg theme 4 ftw)

[@Thompson8200]

@@Abrifq Yeah the term "SC OST" is completely useless to search for so that didn't help me at all, which is why I asked.

This might mean there is also a 4030??

I can always ask if there’s an RTX4030.

@@BudgetBuildsOfficial I definitely know a bunch of people who would love to see a 4030 in action. If it does exist, I would REALLY appreciate you making a video about it, thanks!

[@banditplayer1233]

​@@BudgetBuildsOfficial ask for a desktop version of the 4050

[@piecaruso97]

@@BudgetBuildsOfficial since the 1030 performed like a 750 i hope the 4030 performs like a low end 2xxx series gpu, imagine 2050 level of performance if it was a thing on desktop

This is fascinating, i wanted a small RTX single slot card for an HTPC that allows for RTX upscaling on videos, which works pretty good from what I've tried, the majority of low profile RTX cards here in the U.S are double slot.. I might just have to jump on this when I make another SFF PC for home theater use that I can fit in a tight space. NICE!

[@robert_brick]

Could you please provide us with a link to the seller?🙏🙏 I would actually like to purchase this card. Low power consumption with quite an impressive level of perfomance for 120$ is really great, especially for a single slot card

[@alicemeyer3824]

seeing an 80 dollar gpu that doesn't really exist outperform a 3050 laptop variant that I run has really put in perspective the struggle I'm dealing with

[@jesscan4563]

107 so it is basically an overclocked 3050m

[@alicemeyer3824]

@jesscan4563 yeah it genuinely is, but seems like very low power consumption to go with

[@luky92121]

tbh if it has nvenc I would love to get it as a transcoding card for my home server

[@BudgetBuildsOfficial]

It does have full NVENC

[@noahisamathnerd]

PNY makes a lot of the OEM/brandless cards. I have a Quadro P2000 that came out of a Dell Precision tower of some sort. I know it’s an OEM card, but the PNY version is identical to the one I have.

These videos are really good. Is it possible to disassemble them and show the clean GPU die on the PCB?

[@Mrbasscarrot]

Can we actually buy this and where/who from???

[@Soj_89]

I was pretty confident that it looked like a workstation card. It has 4 mini-displayports. It's only workstation cards that only have displayports, and this one, only minis.

[@SodaTheProto]

64bit memory bus on GDDR6, oh god....

[@NotSoCleverUsername]

Honestly, one of these days, someone’s going to build a 480P focused build using one of these and use a CRT as a monitor and it’s going to be fun.

Comeback? He didn’t leave.

[@BlubLab-i6w]

Honestly the fact that it's a modified A400 really makes sense, considering the PNY sticker on it. PNY is the main AIB for Nvidia workstation cards

[@gabrielv.4358]

I'd buy this if it existed! It's very good and doesn't needs the 999000000 cables and the 10000w psu

[@Stoney3K]

I'd take a wild guess and say DLSS was deliberately disabled in the driver to prevent the card from being used for Bitcoin mining rigs? Still, put this card in a small form factor with an entry level i5 or Ryzen 5 and you have yourself a decent SteamOS box.

[@itsuadman]

im confused, does dlss help bitcoin mining?

[@Stoney3K]

@@itsuadman Doesn't that use the same shader/raytracing pathways?

[@PaulTheFox1988]

​​@@itsuadman I think the tensor cores that are used for dlss are well suited for crypto-currency mining, so disabling or nerfing them hampers the mining of crypto-currency, but a side effect is the loss of dlss. How this all works and what the advantage of tensor cores is vs cuda cores is both very complicated and well outside my ability to fully grasp, but the tensor cores seem to be highly advanced floating point units (can natively work with numbers with a decimal point) that work on matrices at a very high rate of perf, the example I saw when looking them up was of 4 x 4 fp16 or fp32 calculations (gen 1 tensor cores) which is not a trivial task, and this capability might be beneficial to mining

[@itsuadman]

Oh, I didn't even consider what was meant. I simply thought about dlss itself, not what dlss uses for its performance. The tensor cores being useful makes much more sense

[@Silentguy_]

I don’t even know why anyone would bother trying to mine with a card this low power anyways since GPU mining is basically dead now.

[@CB-od5dy]

I had a good experience on Ali Express. K610m nvidia GPU for an old 2011 iMac. Got Metal support on a paperweight. Guy included heatsink and instructions for maintaining it as its heatsink was modded. Bit random but the seller tried so hard to communicate with a language barrier. Nothing on this card but did allow me to run newer macOS properly and PS2 and GC emulation was working 100% speed.

[@dodgydruid]

I had a little win today, a dual fan Be Quiet! Dark Rock CPU tower cooler for a fraction of its price and apparently only had a very few hours use and it is pristine :) Very pleased bunny indeed as my youngest wants my Coolermaster MasterAir G100M "UFO" RGB for the system I am building up for her utilising my redundant A320 board.

[@jalkor87]

Pretty impressive for a smoll Chinese card like this.

[@ShuckleII]

This makes me want to upgrade my computer (the performance isn't better than my PC), but the country I'm in struggles with bringing stuff from other countries because it's way more expensive for no reason, and the economy was destroyed by a corrupt government voted by people with anger issues and zero politics knowledge. "It just works" is a myth, nothing works.

[@btarg1]

SFF single slot cards are amazing for flipping old office PCs that have weird shapes and sizes without needing to go over their power budget. You can turn OEM ewaste into a real gaming rig, thats why I bought a RX6400 a while back. with double the VRAM this card would be incredibly compelling!
