    man, i remember the video lowspecgamer made with the athlon 200ge running it in 4k, those were good times

      Runs beautifully. After the video of course I had to play some more and turning on Vsync and locking it to 4K 60FPS is just smooth.

    Radeon 760M is easily twice as powerful as the 1st iteration of the Vega 11, from R5-2400G
    Equivalent to a GTX 760 actually, a smidge below the GTX 960 actually.
    Face-off? :p

      Faceoff between 760M and Vega or a GTX 960?

      gtx760 was my 2nd proper gpu after the 9800gt, its funny when Igpu's can perform similarly with a fraction of the power, but it took a few years...I'm more amazed that I've never payed more that 150$ for a gpu and now I got to a 1070ti that plays in 4k most of the games that I played in 720p with the gtx760 and with less power usage...

      @@TechLabUK That too.
      With the knowledge that GTX 960 would have about 10% better performance according to techpowerup.

      @@dubment I ran with GTX 960 for a good while during the lockdown era, when proper GPUs were hard to come by.
      I had both 2GB and 4 GB variants.
      Believe it or not, I was actually considering the 760 for the longest time to replace my 660, but then I found the 960 on a good deal.
      And in many regards, the 960 was a refresh of the 760. 10% performance uplift.
      So the 760 would still be a solid budget GPU for e-sports rigs, not counting the newest new 2022+ e-sports titles.

    Uncapping your fps to 10 000 might not be a good idea. Cards are often killed in the menu or loading screen when the fps is in the thousand because those 1000's of fps REALLY stress the card whereas a locked fps in game won't. There have been official patches for this. Read up on it.

    • @TechLabUK
      @TechLabUK  Місяць тому

      A GPU will only render the maximum FPS it can at 100% utilisation and can sustain that utilisation indefinitely well cooled so hitting 1000 fps in a menu wont harm the card at all.

    Idea
    Half-Life 1, in software mode.
    Not even using iGPU, purely running on CPU.
    Multicore scaling better and better?

      @@TechLabUK Well...
      If you have a bunch of AM4 CPUs?
      Athlon, Ryzen 3, 5, 7?
      Same Zen if possible?
      So...
      Athlon 200ge (2c/4t), R3-2200G (4c/4t), R5-2400G (4c/8t), R5-2600 (6c/12t), R7-2700 (8c/16t).
      To see how scaling goes?
      That or the 3000 series equivalent.
      Sticking to that could make it easier, by using same mobo, just swapping the CPUs.
      Pro-tip: using a carbon thermal pad, to avoid lots of thermal paste cleaning?
      It's a very very big ask, I know.
      But I wouldn't expect to see this kind of video here and now.
      Perhaps a collab with other channels?
