I'd absolutely go for the 5500 XT. While it's still luck of the draw, these Polaris's could've been mined during the 2 mining apocalypses, not only the last one. Not only that, but I'd want a GPU that was from a newer architecture, has a bit better performance, will be supported for longer etc. I'd say that is worth $40 yeah.
Still happy with the RX 480 Red Devil I bought in february and got outlandishly lucky with. Bought it of a gamer who just upgraded for 70€ and he bought it new at lunch and I know he wasn´t lieing since the other components he was selling all were the same time period as the RX 480, he was just selling his first selfbuild system in parts, mindblowing to genuinly score a 480 which was never mined on in 2023 it´s was like taiming a unicorn. Unfortunatly no real overclocking with this card, if I "unlock it´s full potention" and forgett to shut down and switch bios before doing anything stressing the GPU it will go BOOOM since the highpass mosfets are shit on this model and not suited for what it could potenionally do.
Nicee man great stuff your story telling is always on point i need to work on that 😆...I always wondered about aliexpress. I've seen a few people order from there but have never been on the site myself 🤔
Thanks man, I always appreciate to hear from you. Aliexpress is an interesting site for sure, besides having to follow some rules on being careful with what to buy, you can sometimes find good deals. But not as often honestly as any other site in my opinion. Also, don't worry, your story telling is already pretty good, just keep making that good content bro!
Pretty informative video! this is exactly the content I was looking for ,other cards you could look into could be the rtx 2060 super from mllsee or gainward
I made a video from MLLSE 2060S, it generally runs hot, however I have recently bought another card from them & was not what they advertised, I made a video of the issue, will not buys from them again.
The thing is, the RX 580 2048SP is not a 580, its an overclocked RX 570. Some other yotubers opened them up and checked the chips inside. Apprently these versions of the 570 were only sold in China. So its technically an RX 570 OC. But for some reason they were renamed to RX 580 2048SP instead. Really weird.
I just ordered a brand new XFX RX 580 8GB, 2304 SP, from Amazon for a total of $119. Should pair well with my Core i7-3770, 16GB RAM system currently running a Colorful GT 730 4GB graphics card. I have a Sapphire Radeon RX 5700 XT Nitro+, a PowerColor Red Devil RX 6700 XT, and an ASUS TUF Gaming Nvidia RTX 3070 Ti, in their boxes, but those might be overkill for this system.
@@BudgetBin received my brand new RX 580 today. It was brand new, with the security tape still intact on the box flaps, and the peel-off films still on the card. Installed it in my i7-3770 PC, installed the very latest Adrenalin (it wouldn't let me just install the drivers, and it wouldn't let me uninstall Adrenalin without removing the drivers also, like I was able to in my RX 6950 XT PC). The card defaulted to 1440p 144 Hz. This i7-3770 is my test bench for questionable software downloads to see if they contain malware, before I install in my work PCs. Windows 10 Pro isn't even activated, but it's still letting me customize a whole lot of settings. Awesome.
@@milescarter7803 I have a slighly used Sapphire RX 5700 XT Nitro+ still in the original box, figuring it'll be overkill for the i7-3770. Thei7-3770 and RX 580 combo seems well-balanced.
They are quite wacky, functional though. I'd get the 5 slot 'mining' board for about $40-50. Put the modified BIOS on it (they defualt to only 2 cores, because mining and tiny heatsink), and a tower cooler. I got a great deal on a $7 32GB LRDIMM (load reduced) Because its only got a single ram slot, again mining. It is 5 x8 electrical slots, feel free to fill those up with dual NVMe adapters for a NAS or NVS510/W4100 cards for a 16 panel video wall 😂
The system I used was the same from my last video, a 6 core i5-9400F with 16gbs of DDR4 2666mhz ram. I noticed that when benching, but I doubt it was the CPU bottlenecking. Could have just been an anomaly of sorts.
chinese manufacturer started to produce laptop's die into desktop but unfortunately nvidia does not support this so u are stuck with the trojen filled drivers they provide )gpu is legit though) but on the other hand radeon such as 6600m is quit promising and you can get official driver update support all the time i bought myself one SOYO 6600m and it even out performs my asus 3060 rtx dual oc and cheapen more then half the price of 3060 rtx
