7850/70 are still capable but 7970 hits that sweet spot of playing everything. I was running a 7870 in the summer, 7970 now. 7870 felt in the range of my xbox one's graphics slightly better in some games but 7970 is full 1080p 30+fps in everything I've thrown at it including black ops cold war and warzone. Runs hotter than hell but not bad for $80

This video was very insightful. I have the Radeon HD 7950 Twin Frozr III and was wondering if you're thinking about making a video on its performance in 2021. Maybe I'll make a video on how it plays games in 2021 but I would rather you make the video since you're much better at explaining the technical aspects and and your overall presentation in video making is done exceptionally. I play lots of games with the 7950 at 30 FPS along with my FX 8320 although I have to lower the settings depending on the game in order to achieve 30 FPS or more. Can't wait for the next video. Take care.

Used to own a 7970 what seems like a lifetime ago, and it's amazing to think it's still providing acceptable performance all these years later. Had a GTX 970, 1080, 2070 Super, 1080 Ti and now a RTX 3060 Ti since then, never paid more than £400 for a GPU (got the 3060 Ti founders on release day for £369) and never intend too.

I just bought a 1GB 7850 for €20 complete in box. For a retro Windows XP machine to play Oblivion and Crysis and other titles from around 2004-2007 it should perform more than well enough. And I do enjoy when people have saved the box and the contents. It almost makes it feel like you are going back in time opening up a new product. Just wish more boxes from the 00’s were left since the artwork was best around the mid 00’s.

Random! I Still have the 7870, even though I don't use it anymore, as you've said it's pretty capable of playing most of the titles. I think that the GPU, that can play most today's games at 30 FPS might be an AMD R9 280X, because even though it's also pretty old and power hungry, it still pucks quite a punch. :)

I had a 7870 back in the days, and to be honest, with an overclock, and if it had 4GB of VRAM it would still be a pretty decent graphics card. :) VRAM is unfortunately the biggest limiting factor. Sure the PS4 had 8GB (However, only around 4GB available for games). but since the architecture use unified DDR5 memory it is much more flexible than in the PC space where you separate VRAM and RAM. With that being said, modern games like Doom Eternal can run on 2GB as long as you have 16GB of RAM. :) And If I was forced to exchange my GTX1070 with a 7870, I would still be a happy gamer. :)

It's crazy to see how I can sell my RX 580 for double or even triple the price I bought it for, and probably I could also get close to the price I paid almost 6 years ago for my 7850.

I bought a 7970ghz for about $70 a year or 2 after the ps4 launched. At the time I had an FX 8350 paired with it, and I had it hooked up to my 4k tv using an active display port to hdmi 2.0 adapter. It was crazy! I was playing games at 4k on my tv, and I had the benefit of infinite backwards compatibility (well, in theory at least) It's a shame the new consoles had to come out, I suspect my 7970 will be toast this generation, as will the 7850 in this video.

Would be good looking at 470/480/570/1060 level performance cards as a new baseline from the pro and one X consoles people will likely be playing for a while into the next generation.

Those cards were amazing at the time and still performing nicely! Guess, it's better choice than GT 1030, any GT x10/20, as only available currently cards.

Kids where running these for a good while before getting the next level of hand me downs the R9 290's. Still running a R7 265 (7850 with a hair better clocks) in my youngest's PC. She will end up with a 970 when my 1070 gets pushed down due to future upgrade. These 7850's were really the best bang for the buck for along while. They gave you actual some gpu power for around $100 when other similar cards were 128bit and weaker.

Just built my brother a new PC, He had a Phenom II 965/HD 7850 machine and it was clunking a bit (maybe more on the CPU side) so built him a Ryzen 3600/DDR4 3600/PCI-e4 NVME setup. But as you know can't get any GPUs. So we were going to put the 7850 in as a stop gap but in the end I found a R9 280 to put in. Now its basically a 78XX gen card but it also has 50% more GDDR5 which will help the games he wants to play. Anyway he says it runs perfectly for what he wants to do so he is happy for now. Phew.

You should do oc vs stock comparison for at least one game with some of GPUs that were great for overclocking, this one included. I remember overclocking 7950 and gaining over 10 fps in witcher 3 while temps remained pretty cool on auto fan speed.

My Wife's PC has two 7850's in Crossfire driving her two 165Hz 32 inch monitors. She does some light gaming. She was recently playing "Everybody's Gone to the Rapture" and it played fine and looked good. (I know, not the most challenging game.) I played Fallout 4 on it and it was OK.

HD7950/7970 and their R9 series equivalents pretty much will run any game that most kids these days wanna play on PC just well enough. For ultra budget fornite/valorant/cs:go builds, I sometimes even still use the HD 6890 and 7850 as they perform just barely good enough and around my local market, I can occasionally get them for 10-20€.

Not always, the Xbox 360 and PS3 were ahead of the PC market when they released, especially the xbox 360. In the older generations, PCs didn't have good graphics cards, so consoles were in fact better. And I don't see how you expect consoles to be better than PCs, when consoles cost 20-25% of the price of a PC with the same quality of components. Also the PS4 and Xbox One were the only major consoles to be sold at a profit, usually, consoles are sold at a loss.

For everyone in the comments, regarding the actual PS4 GPU: PS4's GPU is based on a GCN2 (so the uArch in the 290X/260X) variant of a HD 7870 (which is GCN1), underclocked to under HD 7850 performance levels.

It was mainly under clocked for thermals and longevity of the PS4, my PS4 after 5+ years sounded like a jet constantly, I stripped it and applied new thermal paste and it's whisper quiet since.

Ran the exact same model for 6 years, but had a replacement 2 years in because one of the fans didnt spin at idle. It would barely keep stock clock in a 20 deg room before overheating with this cooler, and would thermally throttle most of the time. Had to replace the heatsink with aftermarket one intended for passive use and put 2 cpu fans on it. 1000mhz clock constantly at 60 deg and I had no problem running any game except wolfensein the new colosus. Had to drop to 720p and some scenes were barely possible to complete. Still had a lot of fun. Performancewise (with adequate cooling) its exactly the same as gt1030d5 and 750ti

Still using my 2GB HD7850 today as my everyday GPU, now coupled with a Ryzen 1600. No gaming though, just for ordinary browsing, youtube etc. Back when it was brand new, I experimented with some bitcoin mining, and it ran for several weeks during nighttime. Still have what it mined, now worth well over $1,000.
