- Hello everyone and welcome to something quite strange for Budget Builds where today for the first time since the 200GE ive actually got a brand new "Budget Tier" Graphics Card for review. Thanks to Palit (the creators of many good cards but above that Frobot the Robot) I've had some time with the card to get a pretty indepth review of the RTX3050 out, from GTA 5 through to RDR2, from DLSS though to Comparisons it certainly is a feature packed one. Hope you all enjoy.

Thank you for making the review!🥰
Bring back frobot
make waifu gpu please i need one please
@@KamiEpix The good old memory🐸🐸We'll feedback to internal.😆
@@MrRyoogi It's the chip shortage, it's out of their hands they need to stay in business somehow. If you want to complain to somebody direct those comments twords the companies and scalpers buying GPUs en mass further driving up the price of already increasingly limited supply of silicon.
Thank you Palit for supporting some of the smaller creators instead of just focusing on the big names.
Launch morning, my local Microcenter had 3 models available, the cheapest being $380. This card was never intended to hit MSRP.
the cost to make it is actually higher than the msrp, so it makes sense.
@@notcraig255 No, no it is not. It is objectively not more expensive to manufacture than they set the recommended price at. Even at retail pricing on the components, ignoring the massive discounts these guys get for buying them in the thousands it is still cheaper to produce than the MSRP. You think Apple pays $400 more for a 256GB chip than they do for a 64gb one? Wait don't answer that, you obviously do think that.
@@notcraig255 it will hardly cost 150 dollars to make
Columbus Ohio MicroCenter is selling them for $459.99 today. 25+ in stock, purchase in store only.
I hope Microsoft buys nvidia and kik jensen like boby kotic 😆
Holy crap! It's amazing that Palit actually reached out and sent you one of their cards! May frobot be with you.
Well. That's an only way you can get this card on a budget nowadays
@@EvGamerBETA Right…..the people that actually need this card can’t get it and certainly not for the MSRP.
Well you can be sure "new egg" wouldn't reach out......lol
Great review! But in the real market the price for this GTX3050 is 500€ and for this money is a no way, they are better cards for this price like the RX6600
Might wanna change you comment from gtx to rtx
eh
@@Quark_Proto Ohh noo like anyone is not going to get what he is saying, wow such a bad mistake. You really might be a toaster.
@@Quark_Proto might as well be a GTX card tbh…. It’s only slightly better than something like a GTX 1060
@@liamsgamingpcs7473 well it has rt cores + it’s on par with a 1660
This is probably the most comprehensive review of the RTX3050 out there. Too many tech channels are being far too snobby, and aren’t considering anywhere near as many benchmarks or real world scenarios for this card.
£250 for Older Flagship Performance with DLSS, RTX, and a few other features isn’t too bad when the same flagships cost £250 used like you said.
But it wont be 250 pounds
This card goes for $450 not 250, that is the problem.
You ain't doing RTX with this, DLSS is nice though. Problem is most 3050s cost as much 6600xt, which is just a better option.
Saying you won’t be doing RTX with this card is nonsense, as an entry level it handles RTX at 1080p absolutely fine. I do query the longevity of this , but in my testing not a single problem popped up.
£250 ha ha. The only place I can find them selling right now is on eBay for about £400.
Good video. The rtx 3050 is a great card for $250.. Problem is nearby stores are selling them for $600 Cdn.
Do you know rx 550 l.p. is relaunched in Japan for 150 $ in GPU wide spreading period? At least it has 4g vram for happiness
Major issue is the price is never near RRP now
$420-450 plus tax in Canada for RTX 3050. Not worth it at all. A Radeon RX 6600 8GB can be had for around $375 plus tax- that's $400 flat with tax. The prices are hot shit in this country. CPUs can be had for a decent price, however. I recently saw the Ryzen 5 5600X for $238 and there have been crazy deals on some Intel chips over the past year or two- like less than $200 for an i5-9400.
I have to say, I really do feel like this is a good card considering the ridiculous market.
Just two years ago I picked up three r9 280x cards for £35 each, a GTX 1050 for £35, and a 1660 super for £225. All of these cards went to friends and family for free or what I bought them for. It makes thinking an RTX 3050 at £250 being a bargain very strange.
I kept the sole retsined R9 280X for my daily driver rig as the dvi port is dead, and I considered downgrading to an R9 270x (that I picked up for £65) so I could move the R9 280x on to someone who could use it better. Incredibly the R9 270x is a sapphire toxic card, and it is far, far to nice to be kept by me. It overclocks like a beast and remains under 50°c at 100% load so I can't keep it to run rimworld and stardew valley because what a WASTE
Mr. Budget Builds, if you want the R9 270x Sapphire Toxic to play with or keep, just let me know.
I actually have a HD7870 around as a spare but thank you for the offer 👍
@@BudgetBuildsOfficial no worries! It just means I have something around to build out a budget rig for my youngest sproglet, or a friend of a friend in need :)
If we had more people like you in the world the shortage wouldn't be as bad as it is now. The number of stupid consoomers using 3090s to run minecraft is infuriating.
@@junko4166 I know what you mean. Excessive consumerism is mind boggling for me, but there really is an element of planned obsolescence involved too :/ As mentioned in this video, the support drop for the R9/R7 era graphics cards by AMD is extremely pointless and will add to the ewaste epidemic.
People get a real sense of accomplishment and reassurance that their given Thing could do the thing even though it won't ever need to. It's like Americans buying trucks, 4×4's, and V8's for the home to work commute, and home cooks buying the finest Japanese hand made Chef's knives to chop carrots for their bland casserole one night a week.
Although the idea of a budget build is dead and never coming back, the channel itself is better than ever.
This is honestly one of your best videos to date.
If you want a budget build buy 6500 xt. Considering the inflation in 2021, it is actually bellow $200 in Donald's dollars.
what? budget building is still perfectly possible, especially now that the crypto market has crashed and if your not afraid of using eBay and CeX. Just recently I put together a beginners gaming pc for my 12 year old sister consisting of a Dell OptiPlex with a 4th gen I5 and 8gb of Ram alongside a GTX 1050, all for only £120.
Sure its not amazing but it can still handle modern games at 1080p 30 and is more than fast enough for what she needs (it's a hell of a lot faster than the Pentium laptop I was rocking at her age, playing Kerbal space program at 10 fps lol).
As for more more powerful rigs they're still possible to build, a RX 580 can be had for around £100 and a GTX 1080 for
Futureman here, budget builds are back!
Wtf are you on about budget builds aren't dead lmao
What an amazing card! You highlighted the pros and cons perfectly!! Such a well done video my friend I hope to see more manufacturers come to you wanting reviews!! Seeing the new entry cards reviewed by someone who understands the value of old vs new how you do is truly invaluable knowledge.
Thank you, that’s very much appreciated.
I’ve always liked Palit’s stuff. They’re not as flashy or well known as other video card makers, but they build solid cards and sell them at a relatively decent price.
It's always fun seeing your graphics card up on the comparison graph. It's nice having something to root for
Amazing video, I really enjoyed this one. Most other reviews don't go this deep into the different features of the card and the fact that you show gameplay footage makes it much more entertaining
Great review! And awesome that Palit hooked you up with a review sample.
Your videos have such a nice pace to them, great job as always.
Everytime i hear a new GPU is coming out I'm like "damn but where?" It's awful as I'd like to upgrade my PC but the one thing I actually want to upgrade is nowhere to be seen at MSRP. And while there's a chip(?) Shortage i feel it's more scalpers than anything else.
if ethereum 2 comes all mining is obselete. WHich means a massive gpu dump will happen. (maybe even rtx 2080 for 100 bucks levels of madness).
@@shagstars ah now you've made me hopeful but something like that happening still seems unlikely
@@bunkernuts6293 ether is the reason everyone is buying 4gb+ gpus in bulk.
Well, it's a good mix of everything. High demand, higher manufacturing and shipping cost and people trying to get money from scalping. NVidia lying about the MSRP isn't helping either
Ey nice a manufacturer sent you this card, probably happened before but nice man!
Liked and subbed as always, your channel is very relaxing and informative, keep it up :)
Hands down the best review of the 3050 on youtube! congrats!
About time a decent entry level card hit the market - absolutely no chance it will be in stock for more than 2 seconds though
Seems to be on par with a 1660/1070
Awesome
Too bad to use this card at the full. you need a gen4 MB 😞
@@WilliamAndrewPhilipBodie that's only really true for the RX 6500 XT, the 3050 works on PCIE 3.0 too.
@@WilliamAndrewPhilipBodie You are confused with the RX 6500 XT
@@WilliamAndrewPhilipBodie The RTX 3050 loses +/- 5 to 10% of it's performance on PCIEx 3.0, because it's 8x instead of the 4x of the RX 6500 XT, the double amount of PCI lanes sure helped a lot.
@@b0ne91 That is good news thank you very much 🙂
I recently upgraded from an RX 570 to a GTX 980ti. Anything newer is just ridiculously priced and buying new is kind of a waste since most of these cards are effectively vaporware in terms of availability. And my local computer shop is basically only carrying the bottom of the barrel 710s and 1030s and the top end 3080s at like 2k CDN. The only 'mid range or entry level option is AMD workstation GPUs.
also got a 980ti, and i will get annother one and being up to like a 2080 and that would be so dope and a 980ti already destroys a RX570 :) even my 980 in my secondary pc is better then a 570, lulz
@@tyonorshapzc7tjfvb7-caz The GTX 980 series, is likely the last compatible series for Asus' pre-UEFI motherboards, including socket 1366. Wouldn't surprise me if those are awesome in Asus X58 builds.
Great review!
It was very nice of Palit to send you a card to review. It's just a pity they didn't then send any to retailers in the UK to actually sell. Apparently some are 'coming soon', can't wait to see what the price will be.
This is my first time hearing about Palit. Neat!
i own a Lenovo Legion with a Ryzen 5 4600h and a 115w RTX2060 which means that gaming capabilities are great but i do have to mix and match DLSS and RT to get the best visual fidelity possible at an enjoyable framerate. If people spend a few minutes trying to get the best settings for each game they will be able to squeeze just great performance out of these lower end yet capable cards. great review, the pros and cons were given to us in a very black on white and easy to follow way. thoroughly enjoyed it! :D
The pop-in is probably due to the memory bus, as you said...I've noticed it a little bit with my ASUS STRIX RTX 3060Ti in some games like cyberpunk and battlefield V
i disagree on that .i have an rtx 2060super and play cyberpunk on ultra settings and medium raytracing with no ray traced shadows with arouind 55 -60 fpsd with free sync active and no issues wath so ever. so maybe you have something else causing tath.like maybe a slow hhd or ssd or slow cpu. i have an ryzen 2500X +32GB OF RAM 3000MHZ+AND THE GAMING DRIVE IS AN nvme and the so is on an ssd. again see my pc play every thing on ultra by default no problems. but i only play at 1080p
@@nelsonpiedade61 I have a Gen 4 NVME SSD from MSI and a core i7 11700K overclocked to 5.1GHz
I hate the pc parts market right now. I’m not sure why I actually expected it to sell for £250.
I don't need a graphics card or anything - I've got two RTX laptops, but I love your channel. Every video is quite insightful!
IMO the best RTX 3050 review out of the lot, seen from correct the point of view compared to the other reviewers too
Great vid, thank you. :)
Palit helping the UK reviewers. In Costa Rica we are lately getting some Palit stuff, nice from them to provide samples for reviews!
Nice to see Hubnut in the background!
I love that you have a full cup of steaming tea behind the card in the b-roll shot. Brilliant! What tea did you choose for this video might I ask?
Tetleys today 👍
this was a really good review of the rtx3050. however i wish you would talked about overclocking the card a bit and i fully realize this would have added a lot more work. maybe a follow up video? :)
definitely better value than the 6500XT... If you can find one at MSRP
The cheapest I can find costs twice as much as the best priced 6500xt.
You can't.
@@junko4166 Yeah i find one 6500xt for $230, its still a bad card, but what can you do.
Yeah if you can find one for msrp. A better deal right now is the 6600 still less expensive than the 3050 and way more performance.
But since you won't, as a matter of fact 3050s street price is double the street price of 6500xt 🤣
I paid a pretty penny for a 3080 and I personally plan to keep it for the next 5-6 years. It’s really cool seeing that you use a r9 furry, I remember back in the day when I was in school still the R9 furry was a beast as one my personally friends got one back then.
Shouts out for using some of the Sega GT 2002 OST 😍
For such a small card I think the performance it's unbeatable considering it's new and it comes with warranty. Nowadays you don't know what the card has done and that give it something to think. Btw glad to see you back and uploading.
All very well and done.
Great video once again! I have only one suggestion, and that is that during BeamNG testing, perhaps you include results with 2-3 Traffic AI enabled. Simply because I'm sure a lot of people will start using Traffic once they learn of it, and each car you add seriously ramps up the GPU demand
Actually it ramps up the CPU not the GPU
@@fayadkevin not in my experience with a 1650 super and a 2060/ ryzen 3600
This is definitely a decent card (if you can actually find it that is) I've been playing MC rtx a lot recently and it basically makes Minecraft arguably the hardest game to run on any computer lol. Weirdly I only get up to 80fps (at 1440) on a 3070 laptop, so its good to see that dlss/rtx work well on a budget card. Will be very interesting to see how this holds up in three years time.
i currently have the palit dual 3060 and it still uses the single fan pcb with a extended heatsink. just like with the 3050 the amount of power theyve packed onto such a small pcb is just incredible whilst also keeping it relatively cool. the way that Palit has managed the 30 series is admirable as its a no thrills option but still packs some great power and cooling whilst also the cards not being too "shouty" in a way with the design.
Sadly it's 500 USD here in Hungary and a Rx 6500 xt is 350
both have bad prices
Paid less for a new R9 Fury Strix new with shipping in 2016 (flagship).. Paid 109$ for an RX 460 4GB no 6pin In Oct 2016(budget). Used market could get you an RX 570 for 75$ in 2018.
I got a new rx 570 for $120 in 2018, worth more than that now lol.
November 5 of 2016, got my GTX 1060 3 GB for $220 USD.
Noice video, keep up!
Another awesome video
3 years ago I purchased a AMD Pro Duo (Fiji) for £350 and it has served me well. The death of SLI/Crossfire and AMD dropping driver support for cards little over 5 years old (including professional cards), has made me seriously consider upgrading. Thank you for showing Fiji architecture comparisons to the RTX 3050.
great video lad keep up with the good work ps how are you doing today
The fury is still kicking!
Shoutout frobot 🐸
new upload : O
As an owner of an R9 Fury, I feel you completely, I still think that going to my 5700xt was underwhelming beside the modern driver support and double the ram. The Fury was such a great card and for most instances still is. I'm kind of curious how the card would perform under modded drivers that keep it up to date.
I want that mug!
I was feeling some regret a few years ago when I got my RTX 2070 since EVERYONE was slamming the 20 series.
Seeing the price for 'budget cards' in stores being nearly the same price as my card and how much use I've gotten out of the RTX features (DLSS, RTX voice & the encoders for streaming/recording) I am VERY happy with my purchase years on.
This is really getting out of hand, I'm wondering how much longer we're gonna be stuck with inflated prices, no stock, scalpers and best buy charging 200 bucks a year to have a 'better chance' at getting a video card
Literally just bought 2060 12gb recently as it is the best bang for buck from gainward in the competition of local market
Reckon it will last me ten years
While im here seeing dud with 2070 still complaining the market, just forget it and use what u have, it will last u ten years
I even used 6850 until recently
Tats wat tis channel is about
While £250 for this seems OK, its not going to be available for that. Add another £100-£150 for this card. As for self build PCs going forward, unless theres a normalization of the market over the next year, buying pre-built PC's will be a more cost effective option.
yeah its sold out for 400-500 and resaled on eBay for 500-600
@@karamalinumberone7478 you can get rtx 2060s for that price even in this market, which performs better
The AMD side has FSR so if you're going to show DLSS as a plus for this card you should also mention FSR
AMD's FSR is also universal, so nvidia benefits from it as well.
True but it's also a much simpler technology. The only reason it works on everything while dlss doesn't is because dlss leverages the tensor cores on rtx cards to do much more sophisticated upscaling, rather than just edge detection with a sharpening filter.
@@cloudycolacorp DLSS, is known for blur, too.
Bittersweet. Great video though!
Simcity 2013 OST , reminds me the first game who need internet for singleplayer , ptsd all over again
Honestly at these prices for gpus I think I'll switch back to console gaming until things drop , not paying 1k for a card that's the equivalent of the one i paid 350 for 6 years ago
I recently bought a evga 960 ssc 2gb version second hand for just over 100 pounds. I was not hoping for much. But much to my amazement, I can run most new game and old titles comfortably at 1080p with at least medium preset settings. I was actually amazed it did so well.
I got lucky the other day and found a old Alienware PC in the trash that had a 1060 6gb, first upgrade my PC has had in 6 years. last card was the 960 2gb.
Even decade old hd series can run recent stuff
A 960 can certainly do better
New generations are overkill
@@urnoob5528 i also recently purchased an amd rx 580 8gb version and its been a while since owning an amd card. My last amd card i think i had crossfired x2 hd 7970's togethet which worked well and cards after that have been nvidia 10 series cards.
Sadly though, the price will never ever touch $250. Atleast now
The one and only piece of microelectronics I EVER owned that had caught fire, was a palit GPU...
This is great. As the dude still using an hd7770, that would be a great upgrade!
Maybe in 7 to 8 years import taxes and scalpers will let me buy one LOL
It's not a bad budget card if the price stays reasonable. 8 gigs of ram, Nvec decoding, And DLSS/Ray Tracing abilities. Power is reasonable as well. Thanks Budget-Builds for the informative review! Cheers!
Crysis only uses RT for reflections. Lighting in its entirety is raster so you do not lose any fidelity there by turning the RT off.
first the pop in my be if your using a pcie 3 computer( only being by 8 not 16). If your using a gen 4 or 5 there should be no problems. In the past amd used to be alot betting with driver support length till as of recent. I am upset with amd on that front, great video.
Man seeing the perspective again hurts like hell haha, miss the days when the price too performance ratio was more fair balanced.
I've yet to see a Palit or for that matter any other brand 3050 anywhere near that cheap. I hope to see it soon though!
ive got a 1080 8gb model nice to see the comparison
Very cute dog, looks a lot like my mums. Jack Russel Terrier?
Very nice be nice to see how it comepairs to 2060
Ooh kenshi, best game
the pop in is a feature Nvida uses to try keep fram rates high, its not a driver its in build to every card since gtx 1080, tho you only ever see it if you push the cards hard, amd also do this just a significantly less on there new RX 4XX cards and newer.
You should make a guide to see how to determine whether a graphics card that is budget and is really efficient. I think some of the efficiency is determined by architecture, memory space, memory tech.
I'm having to use an A10-9700 APU and it isn't faring nowhere near as well as it was supposed to, so this GPU crisis makes me cry. Many people in my country (not a first-world one) even gave up on pc gaming.
I remember my Palit GeForce 3 Ti200, what a great card that was then.
I would've gone with this card if it weren't for nvidia not making a whole new die for it, its using the RTX 3060 die so its going to be low supply. I went with the RX 6500XT instead, I got it for 230$ which isn't terrible but it was better than the other prices. the 6500Xt is the only new budget option, nvidia's answer is already 500$...
I hope the 6500xt serves you well and I know not everyone is in a position to wait or spend more money but in the future the 6500xt resell price is probably gonna go down so much because it lacks many crucial features, cards that are maybe older than 5 years can match it's performance and more because they don't have a tiny memory buffer as well as encoding engine etc... So, your card is temporary but you might end up not saving much money at all than if you were to buy something like RX 6600 right now as you will lose money on the 6500xt + 200-400$ spent replacing it.
Just in my opinion, if it is possible to get a good deal on a RTX 3050, RX 580, 1060 6GB, 1660/S/Ti or even maybe 1650 it is a much better option than 6500xt and if you can't then you might as well spend 600$ on RTX 6600/6700 or RTX 3060/Ti
@@iAMaReaperGotprobZ i don't play a lot of games that would need the vram, for example in hardware unboxed's video i do not own a single game showcased. i don't need the encoders. only the lanes are a problem to me.
i didn't want to spend more than 300$ on a graphics card and I don't want to buy a used one either
and yes it is serving me well, out of the demanding games i've tested (not many) it has been an improvement over my 1050ti. the only game that hasn't seen improvement is minecraft with shaders. and i'm on a gen 3 system (will be switching to a gen 4 system soon and giving my ryzen 5 2600X and motherboard to a friend stuck on an FX 8300)
and I find your last comment to be an example of the ignorance towards the 6500XT, you're recommending someone how decided to get THE 6500XT, let me repeat that, THE 6500XT, to instead spend 600$ on a 6600/XT or 3060/Ti. I am well aware of the card's flaws, but I don't really care, if I have to play on low settings to get 60FPS thats fine, if I can get 60FPS on high thats great.

@@killert41 Firstly, if true then that's one amazing deal you got there, but that just isn't the reality of the used market for the vast majority of people. Secondly right now is also a particularly bad time to buy used as your far more likely to find people offloading barely functional and almost dead cards from their mining rigs.
@@killert41 did you not read what i said, i can't buy a graphics card over 300
the benchmarks showing this thing as not that much better than my existing gtx 1060 6gb model makes me kindof glad that, despite forking out $400 AUD for my 1060 back in 2017, that I did infact do so, because damn, anything affordable that's an actual upgrade isn't coming anytime soon
I have this card currently but I was lucky with it being in a pre configured pre build for about 200 dollars. Otherwise would never pay the asking price of 400 (currently on amazon) when you can get the 3060 for about 50 to 70 dollars more.
If you believe the $250MSRP, I have a bridge in New York for sale...
The RTX 3050 is a miner's dream card. Low power use with 8GB of VRAM. The nVidia LHR algorithm has already been cracked so these cards will sell like crazy to miners. When nVidia says "we care" we say "bull-$hit!".
It is a decent card like its predecessors, but as you said its the price keeping it down, maybe in the future prices could be better it would be a good buy.
Im so glad i picked up a 3080 at MSRP when they first came out, i dodged a bullet evading the scalpers.
I gamed and mined eth and that pretty much paid the card for itself lel
Never thought I'd see the day you covered a current generation card.
the R9 Fury die looks gorgeous tho
I would love to see a 6500XT review. All the reviewers are saying it's bad, but it's available on eBay right now for ~$230.
Hey Budget, long time enjoyer of your videos, question, how would this compare to something like the GTX 980m 8gb the one you typically find in a Clevo P370em? Love the content dude, keep it up :)
980M is slightly worse than an R9 390. Take 10% off those results and they should be semi accurate.

Edit; performance wise, I get really good framerates with any and all of the Tomb Raider 2013 reboot series, as well as most titles I've tested with it, as for VR support, I've got a Lenovo Explorer, and runs The Forest, VRChat, Pavlov, Beat Saber, even some meditation VR games all run beautifully, I even tried a Daft Punk simulator that was super fun :)

In Forza Horizon 5 the texture pop-in seems to be an ongoing problem/limitation of the game engine. At least on PC
Great video. What’s the game at 13:46 if you don’t mind me asking?
DLSS is basically magic. Whether you are playing with an RTX3050 or an RTX 3090 TI having DLSS greatly helps with performance. On the high end DLSS is basically required to play games at 4k 60fps.
Looks like a great option for this price.
I'm waiting for a reasonable card to upgrade from my Powercolor Red Devil RX580. Still plays most 1080p games maxed out or at least at high. Though about adding a second one but they currently got for $450+ on the used market. I bought the card new for $190 in 2017. This card should be around $200 and the 6500xt should be $130. They are currently going for around 2X that or more. Looks like most of us will skip this generation of cards too.
6500 xt is around $150 in Donald's dollars. Real inflation during 2021 was above 50%.
I didn't see any numbers from mainstream benchmarking like 3D mark or the likes, or did I miss them in the video??
I would have liked to have seen some of those compared to your r9 fury....
A good video nonetheless though.... Thank you for making it.
I do have to admit, I have never heard of the brand before. I must assume that it is a European brand.... Though their UA-cam channel says they are the largest in the world.
I have got the gainward Pegasus card and its pretty similar to this one. I was blown away by the RTX+DLSS performance. iwe got 45-50 fps in CP 2077 with rtx medium and even better 100+ in fortnite with the absolute highest settings RTX+epic ewerything and iwe got 100+ FPS with lot of stutters (but fortnite is a mess in terms of 1% lows), but after playing 2-3 games 1% lows got over 60 so it was perfect.
The cooler is actually the exact same as i can tell.
I know you mentioned the rival cards don't have DLSS, but ALL cards have FSR. It's not as good as DLSS, but it works, and it works favorably.
Could you do a video on one of the Radeon HD 5000 series of video card, as that series was the last to have ATI branding on it?
This is making me glad that I grabbed a used 1060 before prices went nuts ($150 in mid 2020). It honestly has run everything I’ve thrown at it well enough at 1080p, but I also have it paired with a 12 year old i7 so a few games like Rainbow Six Extraction have throttled from that.
EDIT: I’m guessing that Forza didn’t recognize the card in its database. I know Forza Horizon 4 can hit Ultra 1080/60 on my 1060. Sims 2 has the same issue with modern cards, but at least Forza lets you tweak up.
This card looks like it's a very good contender if you are doing small form factor builds. Pair it with an i5-12500 and you have what would be a top end machine in 2020, in a small and low-power package.
Nice mug. I mustache you a question.
Remember all those "shoulda got a 390" memes? I do
Here in my country, Costa Rica, it's around $600... Here it is caused by two reasons, the freaking high taxes to things imported, specially technology that makes us pay between 50% and 70% of the price, and the hell that means trying to find a GPU this days...
