When The Predecessor Is Better Than The Successor

- A card from 4 years ago in the came class, out competing its successor? It's more likely than you think! The RX 5300, is a splendid card, and I really wanted to show it off and talk about it while also finding excuses to give you to not get an RX 6300. I went, all out, on this video and learned a lot. I might start making me editing simpler since it seems to suck up a lot of energy on these videos. But regardless, I had fun with it, and the video turned out pretty good I think.
Shout outs to @IcebergTech and @RandomGaminginHD for their videos! Check them out in the links below!

I paid £60 for my 6300, which was £50 too much.
Frankly, there are cheaper display adapters out there that are not nearly as insulting...
@IcebergTech I honestly don't get how expensive it is. I understand the costs to make it is there, but even then, it is just a sad excuse for a 'cheap' display out.
Love Iceberg's honesty here :D
@@BudgetBin I don't think it was ever meant to be sold, hence why it's technically "unreleased" it was only meant for OEM, not retail sale and now that people started making videos on it, there's now a demand for the few out there

The 32bit memory bus is a crime.
That memory bus and bandwidth is tighter than my anus
Even cpu has 64 bit, what a nasty cut down
It seems that's because the VRAM chip count is halved from the 6400. You'd have to be royally demented to design a chip with a 32bit bus in this day and age.
@@jm036 when you look at board of the garbage one it has a chip missing because the pads are still there I wonder what chip could go there
@@NicVandEmZ Clearly for the RX 6400 versions of the board
this is something fun. having a GPU thats older and performs a crap ton better compared to its newer counterpart. alot of fun :D
@@Nikkerston glad you enjoyed it! :) I love older hardware that performs good despite how much time has passed.
@@BudgetBin same here
Welcome to the 2020s. When The GPUs are overpriced by inflation and scalping and companies tell it's because It's an AI accelerator.
Dell "Hey AMD, give me a display adapter for F series intel chips". AMD "Ok"
That 32-bit bus and a single RAM chip is probably more impactful than the reduced compute cores.
the 6300 makes the 6GB 3050 look good
the 3050 6GB at least have a good baseline performance for a 75w card. The 6300 is a repeated time of 2014 (GTX 750Ti)
At least the 6300 is just an obscure OEM card, which the 3050 6gb isn't

@@Klatchan honestly I feel like people haven't been talking about this lately. I agree.
dell was shipping the RX 6300 with their SFF form factor desktops with the huge surge in work from home applications that needed something cheap and small but would handle two display ports with accelerated video decoding for zoom or other situations. the low profile was also handy for a new series of 1U server computers and modern KVMs that use DP output instead of VGA, as some specific racks do not have integrated DRAC or ILO.
the older RX 5300 was iirc used almost exclusively as an XPS mini tower add-in GPU because the XPS home office PC (a step below the optiplex but above vostro) needed to hit some lower price points and the WX 2100 and 3100 weren't available in enough numbers to hand out with the XPS with HP using the same part number combined with a higher unit price. so the XPS got the RX 5300 and the Optiplex received the WX 2100 as base line GPUs (and remember, the scalable xeon C422 and C621 lacks a integrated GPU of any kind).
if you want to get super weird and "probably not on youtube" i have a Quadro GV100 from when i did industrial CAM work. iirc it's dell branded but has PNY stickers.
servers switching away from VGA is not allowed. I refuse to let VGA die
Thought they shoveling rx 640 in there. Theres a weird dell oem version thats cut down to almost nothing.
@@ParticularSky could be, i mostly work with HPE and Nutanix gear now. there some real weird OEM cards i see in servers now, either to add KVM output or to integrate with an intelligent rack. $30k gen 10 HPE servers that have a $300 add-in card just to add VGA output type of thing (iirc it's also an AMD chip) for example.
@@chazbotic My old optiplexes had hd 7470 and a hp z workstation with a nvidia gt 230, which I didn't know was a thing till throwing it out.
@@ParticularSky had a GT330 in an HP Deskpro a long time ago, was pretty good for a slot-in GPU for airport kiosks that had to run a local DFP and simultaneously an advertising television on HDMI. most don't even know there was an nVidia 300 series.
i made it here pretty quick
The first one!
I hate how the 6300 is a "cheap display out" single slot card with 2 DP ports, where we had single slot GT710s with 4 mDP ports. And passive cooled at that.
BTW those GT710s retail for $60.
Phew I thought I was the only one looking for the 710, I have a RX 560 right now and I’m so sick of AMD right now this thing has been holding back my poor 12 core 32 GB PC for a YEAR NOW I just want a working GPU it wasn’t even USED intensely it was just a headless server 😭
@@naraydaniels7832 The 710 is a great card if all you want is display output and you don’t care about fancy stuff for high-end monitors (like DSC or 4k over 60Hz). Low power, cheap, readily available brand new, supports up to 4 DP streams…
HUGE ANIME BREASTS
32bit memory bus, say no more, moving on, into the recycling bin with it.
Should've just called it a "5200" or something.
Would gave made a good duo with the infamous GeForce FX5200 then
Maybe you'd have a better luck finding a GT 1010 lmfao
@@Russell970 honestly at this point, you may be right.
@@BudgetBin btw even the 6500 XT is worse than the 5500 XT, not only less VRAM and less PCIe lanes but also lacks a dedicated video encoder for streaming/recording, However the RX 6400 might be the only viable thing to use in an SFF PC because it's performance is acceptable and is close to an RX 570 and is probably better than an ARC 380.
@@Russell970 there is now an 8GB version of the 6500 XT but it's still 64-bit VRAM bus and I think it still lacks the encoder. And yes, I'm afraid that the RX 6400 is sadly the best SFF gaming card on the market (that isn't two slots wide and/or outrageously expensive - I'm looking at you, NVIDIA A2000 - although that was never really a "gaming" card).
For those who want decent gaming performance in the SFF form factor and DON'T want to spend over $100, you might want to consider the Quadro K1200, which, despite the K in its name is NOT Kepler but Maxwell, so it'll have driver support... for a while... and it doesn't suck; in fact, it should be considerably better than most cards in its weight class. Probably better than a GT 1030. With 4GB of 128-bit GDDR5 memory, it doesn't lack for VRAM, either. At least not at sensible settings and games that don't ask unreasonable things of it. I'm wishing I went this route but before I knew to, I went with a GTX 1050 4GB that I found at a steep discount. Still, I think I might have come out a lot cheaper with a K1200. Ah well. It's like my grandmother always said: "Live and learn. Die and forget it all."
The K1200 might be a good one to cover in a video, maybe in an appropriately-sized old Optiplex?

Wow. The 6300 is way over priced. I paid $130 for the 6500 (it was on sale) and it came with a free $60 game, Dead Island II.
@@baroncalamityplus Yeah I really don't get why the price is so unexplainable high, but I think it could have just been a bad negotiated deal all around for what should have been some cheap OEM parts to be made.
@@BudgetBin Maybe though replacement part direct from Dell/hp and similar is tend to be overly expensive compared to a comparable off the shelf part especially stuff meant for business/professional computers. Not sure if any dells came with a 6500 but if you you had to get a replacement gtx 1650 or similar from dell it would probably be way more expensive than one you could get on amazon and the workstation variants would probably come with some expensive quadro equivialent instead.
I still find your style of editing and the drawing like intros funny and gets my attention. Thank you for making the specs box more readble in more recent videos as well.
I was searching for the RX 5300 and RX 6300 a while back and I can't find them on marketplaces in my country. And good thing I never bothered trying to hunt them down further since the performance is pretty lacking.
It's way easier to get the RX 5500 XT and RX 5600 XT since they're available as both used and new (new-ish/remanufactured) from Aisurix, Millsre, etc.
I found my RX 5600XT is way more powerful (performance and power usage) than what I use it for infrequent indie games and emulation. (Though having a 3 fan big GPU still looks fun in my PC.)
Honestly I think I just need an efficient GPU (or even a a CPU with a decent iGPU) that provides just enough hardware acceleration. At idle the RX 5600XT uses around 30~32 watts to around 150~180 watts under load.
@@abunk8691 thank you I try my best every video to make it fun and informative, and of course and I am glad I could make it better for you :)
It is pretty hard to find even the 5300 yeah. Honestly you are pretty on the nose, the 5500 XT is fairly easy to run into.

One of these days I'm going to set up a test and compare the 6400 to the 6500. The 6400 has fewer CUs, but Dell's 6500 is clocked so low that it might actually be an interesting matchup.

I got the rx 5500xt 8gb for $80 a year or so ago, and I feel the same way as you. these gpus are in a really weird spot performance wise, most games need tinkering/fsr to work. but for older, far cry 5, rising storm 2 or Roblox it's super solid. I even get to play blade and sorcery. overall, it kicks ass but I would only recommend it to someone who doesn't mind tinkering, definitely not 4090 levels of plug and play.

@@thienchaiphetmadan2115 will do! :)
Its a common thing with budget electronics to kinda suck. The used market gives so much value, especially at entry level pricing. Can get you an older midrange or flagship item.
Its the same deal with phones. The very low end ones suck, and for that money you can get an older flagship or midrange device. Only thing is updates, but thats the same thing with GPUs - although in the form of drivers. I always recommend checking out the used market, especially when your budget is very tight.

@@TryboBike I agree, but at a price point of nearly $200 new, I feel like there are better options out there for the consumer.
@@BudgetBin Its Dell and its practices of asking $1000 for a basic 32gb of memory. Those are corporate prices. Once these start cropping up at usual places - like AliExpress or used market - they are going to cost $20.

You could always just, buy a thinkpad for a thinkpad to use a monitor for the thinkpad and like use LFG(Lossless Scaling) for frame generation with a capturecard on the thinkpad while the other one actually runs the game at 30 fps... So you end up with 60fps on the thinkpad that is capturing the output of the other thinkpad....
Okay, I very intentionally worded that horribly. I did an experiment using two thinkpads, a t14 and an a285. The t14 (mx450 dGPU variant) ran bg3 at 1080p low, ultra-fsr 30fps. Then using a capturecard with obs-preview and LFG(Lossless Scaling on Steam), I was able to get a buttery smooth 60fps on the a285 thinkpad. Its so dumb, but works surprisingly well.
I recently got an RX 580 8gb for 60 bucks and it could run furmark for about an hour so ill call that a win.

@@RoswelliVideos to a small degree, I agree. But the overall price is what makes this card not good. If it was $100 new, like the GT 1030, I honestly might have praised it, despite its numerous flaws.
Yes we read those. And there was a typo.
Honestly the actual predecessor to the RX 6300 isn't the RX 5300, it was the Radeon 540, a card so obscure it was only added to Techpowerup because I own one. They're often sold as "Radeon RX 540 1GB" or similar. Performance is similar to the Nvidia GT 1030, an extremely well known Display Adapter. It's shader configs are half of the RX 6300, and it has half the VRAM at whole 1 GB. Yes, a single Gigabyte. It's the weakest card with a Lexa GPU. Not to be confused with the Mobile Radeon 540, which is less obscure.
My Radeon 540 is currently inside of my Nearly Maxed out HP Compaq DC5800, with a Core 2 Quad Q9400, 8GB DDR2, a 500GB HDD, a 128GB SSD, the AMD Radeon 540 as mentioned, a somewhat borken DVD-RW Drive, and with some added USB 3.0 & Front USB 3 IO.
