These are same card with same core. G100 was only rebrand for OEM customers. Kryzps G100 has double the memory of his 9300. So in some games it can benefit from it, but mostly it will be same crap. Really not a gaming card even back than. 9600GT was lowest reasonable nVidia card in 2008-2009.

[@spilledmilk5743]

They got scammed lol

[@ShadowCatGambit]

I remember over 10 years ago like it was yesterday..... well, more like last month, but we picked out a nifty Dell flat screen monitor to upgrade from our HP ray tube computer screen, and it felt like Christmas. The salesman went to go get one from the back room, and he came back out empty handed and told us there was a bigger screen for the same price, and asked us if we wanted that one instead. My sister and I fell for it like we were opening presents. Turns out, that monitor has light pink lines aligned vertically like small groups of prison bars. They were so faint, it was hard to tell they were there sometimes. I kept using that monitor until 2021 or 2022, and then it finally fried itself. Now I'm using a very similar monitor that's so much better, with an even better one now waiting for me to go pick it up.

This brings back memories of when I was in high school back in 2002. GeForce 2 was the popular card at the time. Just a heat sink. Around that time, GeForce 4 came out (I don’t know what happened with GeForce 3) and it was the first graphics card I bought that came with a tiny fan. Friends didn’t believe me that it had a fan! How times have changed since then. 😅

[@beezle1976]

There was gfx cards with heatsinks and fans long before the gf4. My gf2gts had a heatsink and fan (only the cut down gf2 mx's got away with only a heatsink, gts, pro and ultra cards mostly had a heatsink and fan), there's tnt cards with heatsinks and fans, even permedia 2 cards with heatsinks and fans and they were more than 5 years before the gf4 cards. Probably earlier cards too, these are just the ones I remember that I had myself.

Good video. The Nvidia 9300 gs was actually considered decent on board graphics for it's time. It was on multiple motherboards. You could play games at 1024 x 768 with low settings and get around 30fps. Games like COD 4, BioShock, CS:GO Source, Doom 3, Left 4 Dead etc. GTA San Andreas looked & played better than the PS2 version. Games like Batman: Arkham Asylum & the first Gears of War looked playable until action happened on the screen and games like Far Cry 3, GTA 4 etc were just too much for it.

[@dusk5927]

This is like the performance I had with my first pc back in 2006. I had to use it for gaming until it broke in 2017 and the most demanding games I could've play were cs 1.6 and gta SA. Between these years I wasn't allowed to work because of my parents so I had to use that thing for 11 years.

[@dusk5927]

@Narkomancers 1.during that time I was under 18 years old and you can't be employed if you are not 18 y/o or above, at least here. I didn't have stuff to sell and all the people I knew back then didn't have anything for me to do for money in exchange. 2. My parents wanted my mind clear and focused for school only.

[@aleksazunjic9672]

This was released in 2008, it was reasonable low-to-mid tier card. Usual gaming resolution in those years would be 1024 x 768 at 30 FPS. This would run on CRT displays (17 or 19 inch) of the era. 720p (1280x720) of early LCD monitors would also be covered. Completely obsolete now , of course, except in a pinch as emergency display adapter if you do not have anything else available.

9:21 You legit just read my mind, OMG. I was actually wondering how well it would've run. I have beaten this a few times as a kid with a Pentium 4 no issues and got back into experimenting with it last month! 10:23 I think that's because Visual Treatment Low just removes the yellow filter feeling of the game, which can look better if you turn that on and shouldn't affect too much.
