I Bought 22 Untested Graphics Cards For £99 ($113)… 

Why such the hatred for gaming? Lol

@@jakestocker4854 because it is a waste of time

@@mtaufiqn5040 nearly every hobby can be considered a waste of time.

@@mtaufiqn5040 is this Garchamps dad? Lmao

@@jakestocker4854 In early 2000's the media had quite a critical stance when it comes to gaming(to say the least). So my parents always thought i would end up somehow damaged by lots of counter-strike. p.s. They still hate games claiming there is a huge difference between board monopoly, chess and PC gaming.

Yeah I’ll have to benchmark the quadro properly soon 😁

Yeah that one gave me a bit of false hope for the remainder of the box. lol

@@RandomGaminginHD I use these on daily basis in my office, making some serious design work. Used them for 5+ years without problems.

I came here to say this. The performance falls between an gt 1030 and 1050

@@RandomGaminginHD 8400 GS 3-way SLI !!! 😁😁😁😁😁😁

One another usecase are untested motherboards since they can theoretically burn your GPU so You'd better have a bunch of "display outputs" just in case of troubleshooting unknown(especially older ones that usually go to "last hope" examination) MoBos or even whole cases.

5 years ago the GT 520 on my HP prebuilt started going bad.

I had the same GT520 as my gaming card back in 2011. I hate it with passion.

I had a 8400m thare are 3 types of them I had luck that i had a one with 16 uni shaders stil with a 64bit bus . Still play the game Fallout 3 with custom ini file in 1024/768 . What time is that .

BRO! the 8400gs + Pentium 4 was my config when I first played Assassins' Creed 1. great memories

9600 gt was my first gpu. Man was that a good card for the time

Damn i still have one installed on i3 3220 pc... I know its dog is slow but i dont have onboard video output from mobo, so cant help it. my new pc got stolen from my business so went brokeass for old pc. Ryzen 3700x 16gb ram 3070 256gb nvme drive.

They're really good for Windows XP builds to play games from the early 2000s, I have a few machines I use for retro LAN parties

Talk about a steal

Great value. What a legendary find.

He was pentrated

Kind of a weird comment to make on a channel about computers lmao. Just saying because it would make me uncomfortable.

If a customer says "I just want a graphics card for anything but games!" I go get a Ebay Quadro. No fuss and they work nicely for photo editing etc. Super cheap too.

I dont think a single one will do

Well if you're limited to 1999 : GeForce 256 released the same year and basically kickstarted modern GPU era, before 1999 you should look into 3Dfx. Later GPU brought Vertex and Pixel Shaders that obsoleted a lot of older fixed functions pipeline but I don't remember that it was widely seen as a ground breaking gamechanger. You should also look into Integrated GPU or Console GPU that may have helped bringing proper 3D graphics in every households.

Some notable game changers from old to new: GeForce2 Ti, GF3, GF4 Ti, Radeon 8500/9700/9800 -- era of DX8 and so-called shaders, Radeon X1800/X1950, GeForce 6800 -- era of DX9, Radeon HD 2900XT/3850/3870, GeForce 8800 -- era of DX10. Those were the rapidly evolving technologies where it suddenly would not be enough to know how much RAM and Processor speed one had to have, people had to follow closely what version of API they had hardware support -- it was a hell between DirectX 8/8.1/8.1b/9/9b/9c and if they didn't then it was game over because each step came with new generation of GPU. Also this was where AGP bus got taken over by PCI-Express -- some cards were made for both types of slots and some weren't so it was another headache for an enthusiast.

It's not equivalent to a 1050ti, it's a cut down 1050 so quite a lot weaker. The rest is correct yes.

@@kajurn791 Like half the performance, still a cool card though.

Your friend Gus seems like a good lad

I have an M620 with basically the same specs but using a GTX 950M chip cut down to 512 cudas too Its almost the same as a P620 But it is mobile workstation card It also isn't all that much slower than an actual 950M which is surprising

I have a aokaman gddr5 4gb r7 250. I BOUGHT it 20 dollars and so happy until I found it 1gb GPU fake bios. But still GDDR5 memory. It crash under usage over 1gb video memory.

If it's DDR3 though, its performance is cut in half.

@@airmicrobe flash it with the correct bios man and you're good to go

@@airmicrobe for what I know the maximum VRAM of the R7 250 is 2GB for the GDDR5 and 3-4GB for the DDR3 version but I could be wrong. As the other person said find the correct bios for it and flash it,you should find some guides online if you have problems and that should do the trick. You should be able to enjoy some recent games decently but you could have some stutters because of the VRAM size.

@@klocugh12 True,but it's good too thanks to its clocks even if the GDDR5 is far better. Difference is that finding the 2GB GDDR5 model,which is a sweetspot for low-end gaming,is harder and more expensive than finding the 2GB DDR3 model. The 1GB GDDR5 is pretty good but stutterings and frame drops are a lot more common on many recent games,like I can play RE2 Remake on it on 60 FPS with decent graphics but it has some stutters because of the VRAM.

based

It's the best card in the lot.

@@MandoMTL The P620 is great for Plex servers.

Yeah it should run fine, the r7 260 might also be great

Thare is a 8400 with 128bit memory bus.

That would be soo helpful 😭, im currently using the 8400gs and a video from one of my favourite RU-vidr on it would make me and potentially other PC enthusiasts very happy....

@@gauravsachdev2255 you should try overclocking it, i got something like 30 more perf on it, got mine close to 1ghz on air...

@@tomthb8439 that's the problem, I can't take any risks with it, since i have to keep it alive for one more year,if something happens to it I'll be PCless so.....

i use a 8400 gs in my main rig its better than my cpu lol (cpu is a amd athlon x2 220)

An R7 250 was my daily driver some time ago. Worked fine for basic gaming, honestly. I'm not someone who needs 200fps in 4k to enjoy a game!

Being able to sell 'em all and make at minimum double what you paid isn't a bad deal in my book 😅

All those gpus need to be thrown out

Some people don't play any games at all, you bunch of closed minded cacti.

That is pretty much what you would use 210s for.

Yeah this time they said untested but most should work haha

Yeah that's definitely true most of the time. I know some people got some deals from me selling truly untested parts back when I was selling a bunch of builds and parts a few years ago. Had a handful of really nice Intel boards that would cost me more to get a CPU and test than I'd make just selling them off untested.

No, it just removes liability.

iGPUs are slowly taking the place of these low end cards, but I'd say a GT 1030 or RX 550 could be realistic.

i doubt youd find a still decent card like a 1650 in a trash boy like this. gtx 650 worth around 30 to 50 bucks still is probably the best you could hope for in terms of value.

@@uteriel282 In the future you might, like 5-10 years from now.

Yess I have an R9 290 and use nimez, it’s really nice

I was waiting for a comment like this 😂

The P620 and GTX 650, for sure. The 5450, maybe?

I had loads of dual DMS-59 cables laying around years ago when I was buying lots of cheap Quadro cards. I think i kept a single DVI or VGA pair just in case...

Exactly
