1030 is considered by many because of its low power consumption, and the reason is, just like you said in the video, for upgrading mid 2013-2015 HP and Dell desktop PCs into budget gaming PCs. The big factor that was missed in this video was the limited PSU wattage.

Hi, I think it's fun to include GT730(GDDR5) in the compare list too, and one strange thing is GT730 has NVENC that Gt1030 does not.

[@foxhoundra6444]

Are you sure tho ? All of them or a specific chip?

[@deltactarchives1328]

What was trying to be achieved: Don't buy a 1030 What was achieved: 1030 is a much better card than a 710 for double the price. Should you buy a 1030: Yes. (For moderate gaming, don't expect 240 fps) It's a decent card. If a card gets over 25 fps it's acceptable.

[@pleezer007]

It may not great for a regular PC build but I frequently get requests to upgrade SFF computers that people buy off lease. Low Power, Low Profile video are important considerations. It may not be interesting enough for a whole video but a comparison of LP/LP cards for upgrading SFF computers with those power supplies that aren't easily upgraded, it would probably be interesting for those in that situation. Been using GT 710/730 , R7 240 and HD 5450, but I guess I can look at 1030s for people that don't mind paying extra. They all will be better then the integrated Intel graphics they come with.

[@canuckfixit7722]

Great timing this video. I just upgraded a Dell 960 SFF with a Q9650 CPU and am currently running a GT 710 add-in board. This is not a rig for gaming and it plays 1080p 60 FPS YT videos no problem. But it does have a little bit of trouble with 1440 60FPS YT video. A GT 1030 most likely won't help since the CPU and LGA 775 FSB hardware is the bottleneck here.

why buy the gt 710 if the integrated gpu is almost the same, seems like the gt 710 is totally useless

Because high end AMD cpus have none and you don't want big secondary gpu. gt710 is perfect for that.

I think that the Nvidia T400 is a much better card for the lowest-end budget systems. It can be bought for around $100, has GDDR6 2GB VRAM, and works quite well for its low power consumption of just 30W.

Thanks. You just saved my day. I just bought a Ryzen 9, 5900x and wanted the cheapest graphics card to boot the system till I get to buy one of the latest ones. I was thinking GT 710, but then I have a 4K monitor and definitely I need 4K @ 60Hz.

I bought the 1030 purely for the 4K output for my work-from-home PC. Don't plan on doing any gaming on it. My work PC has a 3rd gen i7 that does not support 4K60 so I plugged a 4K monitor and a 1080p monitor into the 1030 and used onboard graphics for the 3rd monitor (1080p). Had to enable both iGPU and dGPU concurrency in the BIOS. Works a treat.

[@Polygraph2131]

i still stand by the fact that the gt1030 really isnt that bad, if your gaming needs are low (aka esports games, or basically any game pre 2013) and you need something low profile and low powered, this really isnt a bad option. now if you have a tower with a 350w psu or above, just get a used 1050ti, its going to destroy the gt1030.

[@crazyjoeshorts5256]

I HAVE that Dell optiplex with the 1030. It got refurbished/rebranded as a gaming pc. They put this oddball rgb pannel in the front, gave it 16gb ram, an ssd and called it a day. You have to tweak a few things, but even demanding games are perfectly playable. I think its the motherboard itself, but i have a working VGA output, so i can run the extra display if i want. i believe i did in fact get ripped off in the end, as the base model does all the same stuff for less money, but the total cost was still around 600 usd.
