Actually your GT 730 could very well just be a more efficient version of this card. No joke, 730 is either GF108 (absolutely terrible, literally rebranded gt 440) or GK208B which is a die shrunk GK107 (GTX 650M, GT 740)
I have a Gigabyte GT 740 2GB OC GDDR5 version, with a Core i5-10400F, and a 8GB DDR4 ram again with a ssd. On paper the GDDR5 version looks better than the GDDR3, but in reality you didn’t see this performance. In a professional way, you will, I mean for work. But please, don’t buy this card, only if you use to connect a TV to watch films and more. At this price you can buy now in the used market a GTX 950-1050 cards and below. I have enough experience with this card, and I hate it!
Never buy anything below a 50 series really. And even 50 series cards usually suck. 60 series is bare minimum to have an enjoyable gaming experience imo. Like a 1060,2060,3060. Etc.
I built a pc for less than $100, it has i5 4440s, 8gb ram, and an evga gt740 sc 4gb gddr5. It runs surprisingly well! Gta5, far cry 3,counter strike, borderlands, etc. All solid performance at medium/900p. My main rig vastly superior 3700x/1080ti, but I still think that gt740 is a great little card!
To be honest, it's like back in the days when you tried to run Doom on semi-modern 386 or 486SX computers. I remember playing it it in low-res mode 160x200 at around 15 fps with a window size of a postage stamp. ;) (so really 80x100px or something like that), I think it's incredible that an old lackluster DDR3 card like this CAN actually run the latest games. That in itself is impressive.
Not to flex on you but I've played heavy titels such as payday2 with the almighty gt730 and at a whopping 3 fps, it is definitely not impressive. I mean even if you compare thr fact that it barely runs 2005 games at a playable fps I'd still say its just a horrendous card not impressive. Sure this one is a bit better but still bad.
How dare people want playable framerates, no one cares that your PC is subpar, no one is going to buy low end hardware despite being able to afford much more powerful hardware just so you won't feel bad about your sh|tty gaming experience, you're complaining too, you're just complaining about the opposite of what you're complaining about people complaining about. Also "Can" isn't an acronym
I love the classic RGinHD content, some absurdly bad graphics card being given a chance to show what it can still do. This is way more interesting to me than brand new hardware bc i could for example afford a gt 740 but not a rtx 3090
love the content recently man been on fire, I ordered one of the Bucket Hats and it came on NYE and I have been wearing it ever since - my family may think I look like pillock but i love it 😊
Just for the fact that Cyberpunk actually opens and plays on this GT-740 regardless of the 360p video quality, just goes to show how awesome this card was for it's time up til now in 2021. I owned this model GPU and can honestly say for it's time back then when I owned one, it was awesome.
I had a MSI GTX 750 (paired with i5-4440 back in the day) in 2014 that looked the same as 740. Upgraded to GTX 1060 in 2016 and RTX 2070 Super in 2019. GTX 750 was my first "gaming" gpu and I was so happy with it.
The first laptop from my brother had a GT 740M. It was a version with 2GB DDR3 but the mobile one just had a 64bit memory interface instead of a 128bit, so it was even slower than this one but for the time we could play every game we wanted, even when we had to turn things down to low, it would run it. Man, good old memorys...
@@jasjotbhasin36 oh you right! I thought the uhd 630 would have the capability to do 1080p 30 because of dual channel. Might not be strong enough then...
just get a cheap used 3400g and 2*8gb 3200mhz ram a cheap case 250gb ssd and 1/2 tb hdd and used motherboard or a cheap one and have a decent 720p gaming pc for cheap
I almost fall victim to this card last year when I tried to upgrade my budget PC. Then a lower priced GTX 660 appeared on the list, totally saved my money from burning for no performance increase that time
I loved this card. I bought the EVGA 1GB GDDR5 FTW Edition back in early '15 to replace my dead XFX 8800GT 512MB ADE, but it lasted me only a year before dying, probably due to static when cleaning it outside the case, or residual damage after having to modify the plastic cover to fit my poorly-structured Acer motherboard. I didn't play anything newer than Shift 2 Unleashed, so all my usual titles ran maxed out without issue.
Fallout 4 is a good benchmark game because it used to be said that if you can run Fallout 4, you can also run GTA 5, but Fallout didn't get harder to run over time like GTA did, and it is a solid middle ground, not too easy to run, not too hard to run.
Would be interesting to review the GTX 745 which is a cut down GTX 750 with DDR3 and was an OEM only GPU found in multiple prebuilts including gaming PCs
I've been using a HD 5750 1GB for the last few days, and outside of Vermintide II (which hates Radeon GPU's) it's been doing alright. Also have an R9 390 and that's still playing games at 1440p!! Madness.

I'm fairly new to your channel, do you have links to other socials somewhere?
I sold a i5 9400F ($140) with 16 GB of DDR4 ($50) and my old EVGA GTX 760 that was sitting in my closet with the rest of the PC built with extra parts laying around for $600 dollars on Craigslist today. If you can pair up a older graphics card with a modern CPU right now you can make some good money due to graphics cards being so rare at the monent.
i Had this in my fx 4350 build , put it together for about 250$ back in the day with sales and open box sales. Still own it to this day and mine was the ddr3. It sucked! GTA V was like 35fps low settings but with horrible stutters.
I have the GDDR5 730 with 1GB of VRAM. I use it on a spare PC for old games. I was using XP but I switch to 7 because everything worked on 7 anyway, and the nvidia driver works better on that. I mean for stuff up to like Skyrim it's fine but I play much older stuff than that on it. Like Fallout 1 and stuff. Interesting to see the 740 with DDR3.
I remember playing Dota 2 back then with this card it plays on 30fps on low-med settings which is okay for me back then lol so many memories L4D2 works okay too on 30fps target
for the ddr3 version to be able to play gta v at 1080p is quite impressive actually specially if you turn on the frame cap... and people who uses that card probably uses 18.5" monitors anyway so they're limited to 1366x768.
I have the mobile version of this card on my old laptop it ran most games at 30 fps I didn't replace the thermal paste on it for 7 years I have now upgraded and built my own gaming pc but I accidently went overbudget and built a liquid cooled i9 9900k system sadly I have to run the integrated uhd630 graphics adapter in my I9 9900K but I am still happy since the only games I play are titles like minecraft and portal
Oh yeah I used to have a gt 730 and even a gtx 460 gets like 4 times the fps in new games and like 5 or 6 or more in older game, truly amazing how bad it can be, even a 8800gr beats it in a bunch of games if the run, altho in newer ones it does worse but usually still beats the 730, in games from when the 8800gt came out it is a slaughter tho, the 8800gt gets way more fps at 2k than the 730 does at 720p.
Looks across my room. . . There it is.... there it has been. The gt740 that more miles from the fan spinning then my car will ever reach. 2014-2020 where the years of constant usage 24/7. I stopped using it in the very beginning of 2021 within like 1 day. Hehe I built a new computer that day. :-)
I have used 3 years ago a GT640 2GB GDDR5 model, GV-N640D5-2GI (from gigabyte) and it was damn good the price I've got it. I was playing GTA 5 with 900p and a mix of normal and high settings and my FPS were around 50-60, and on fallout 4 again 900p with a mix of low-medium and I was getting 30-50 (diamond city was the place where it was dropping to 30's).
I think the gddr5 is going to perform reasonably better. It reminds me of the gtx 1660 versus the 1660 super case not so long ago. The aforementioned was gddr5 and it had some nice performance but was lacking something. The latter is exactly the same as a 1660 but with gddr6 memory, which increased the memory bandwidth a lot, increasing the performance to the point of a 1660 ti which is the best you can get before entering rtx. Just that little difference adds between 10 and 15 fps at least.
I was running a gtx 745 4gb ddr3 card for years. Ddr3 cards even today are not to bad. Just need to adjust settings. Even got cyberpunk at 720p medium with half Res scale getting over 30fps which I was supprised
Yeah. I did have lots of memories with that GPU on my asus laptop. In 2020, it struggles with modern titles even at lowest settings. Glad I had the 25W variant tho, the 15W variant is even much slower.
@@arjaydee6379 I have been using it from 2016 till to day and will probably be using for the next 5 years as well. Installing Asus GPU Tweak 2 and setting the temperature target to 85 some how unlocked the tdp of mine. consumes around 27 to 30 watts. OCed to 1310MHz and 1600Mhz on the memory. i have a cooling fan and placed thermal pads between the heatsink and laptop back panel for improved cooling cyberpunk 2077 720p 50 percent resolution scale with meduim settings is possible at 40 to 50 fps
When i had to choose my First Laptop i choose the Gt750m with 4 GB Ddr3 Vram over the 2 GB Ddr5 Model, because i thought the more the better... Glad i have a 2080 ti now
What you should do is get some really old high end graphics cards. Like from the GeForce 6000-9000 series cards but only the top end variants. Compare some of those high end cards to very low end cards from now and yesteryear. 710,410,210, and amd offerings. You can even test sli on the cards that support it and compare it to crossfire on budget amd offerings. I remember seeing a review a while back benchmarking a 512mb high end gpu that was able to destroy a 2gb offering from years later. Even on slightly newer games as long as it didn’t run into vram issues. Here’s another idea, how much crossfire or sli power using older gpus does it take to beat a 3060ti. Stick to only games that support multi gpu, specifically ones that scale across 3-4 gpus. It would be interesting to see if 4x580s or dual 6gb Titans could beat it. Can dual 980ti? It would make for some awesome content. Especially if you can find deals on those cards or team up with someone who already has samples available.
My phone crashed during this video and I had to crack open it, to pull out the battery, for the shit to boot again! Actually, the card isn't as bad as I've thought, it's painful slow, but you can throw away everything at it and will play!
I bought a 4gb variant of this card for a pc that I am now using as my htpc about 8 years ago not knowing at the time that my hp motherboard has a secure boot issue that prevents it from working with most gpus other than what it came with. Ended up putting it in a build with a phenom ii x4 910 that I sold to a coworker that actually could handle older games pretty well. Think I paid about $50 for it when I bought it.
holy crap I USED TO HAVE THIS. Mine had 1GB GDDR5. I got it from a PC that was in the trash, yeah lol I sometimes sneak into nice place that is sort of like a old pc junkyard. people take their old PCs there and they are destroyed. breaks my heart so I sneak in from time to time and rescue some of them.
What do you think of the 750 Ti in 2020 for most games? I got that gpu, was thinking of upgrading to something better to play more demanding games soon.
I can't remember if it was DDR 3 or G DDR5 But I remember being amazed at GTA5 running at 1333 by 768 on My old GT640 At almost 50 frames per 2nd When it launched
I don't understand why people say "All I can afford is a $60 GPU" and then they go out and buy brand new games every month for $60. Just buy some games on sale or used instead. There you go. A $120 GPU is a far, far better choice compared to being so impatient.
who are these people? Heck, I can actually afford games but I still wait for sales. That's why I prefer pc gaming to console games, faster and larger price drops people who can't afford a $60 gpu are not buying $60 games every month. Not sure who you know who does this for that matter, I'd argue that in many parts of the world, piracy is a frequent answer for games. Not to mention the rise of free games. Nowadays you have ample selection of BR games for free to play (Apex, Fortnite, Warzone and a host of others) or games like League, Valorant etc etc

for the ddr3 version to be able to play gta v at 1080p is quite impressive actually specially if you turn on the frame cap... and people who uses that card probably uses 18.5" monitors anyway so they're limited to 1366x768.
I found by pure chance a GT 740 FTW (2GB DDR5), it's basically a 750ti with another name and a 6 pin connector to stabilize the 1200Mhz clock speed.
That cyberpunk looks like GTA VC with cyberpun mod.
I have the mobile version of this card on my old laptop it ran most games at 30 fps I didn't replace the thermal paste on it for 7 years I have now upgraded and built my own gaming pc but I accidently went overbudget and built a liquid cooled i9 9900k system sadly I have to run the integrated uhd630 graphics adapter in my I9 9900K but I am still happy since the only games I play are titles like minecraft and portal
I had 2 GIG DDR5 GT 760's in sli in a gaming laptop. Was well decent in 2015!
There is also a GT 740 with 4 gigs which is a specific model from EVGA i think same how the GTX 750 4 gigs was Gigabyte specific
My GTX 1050 2GB is starting to perform poorly in newer games...the GT 740 makes it look like an RTX 3080 though
Oh yeah I used to have a gt 730 and even a gtx 460 gets like 4 times the fps in new games and like 5 or 6 or more in older game, truly amazing how bad it can be, even a 8800gr beats it in a bunch of games if the run, altho in newer ones it does worse but usually still beats the 730, in games from when the 8800gt came out it is a slaughter tho, the 8800gt gets way more fps at 2k than the 730 does at 720p.
Maybe could soon do a video about how the GTX 1080 graphics card holds up in 2021. Almost 5 years old, thats still what I use in my main gaming PC.
Looks across my room. . . There it is.... there it has been. The gt740 that more miles from the fan spinning then my car will ever reach. 2014-2020 where the years of constant usage 24/7. I stopped using it in the very beginning of 2021 within like 1 day. Hehe I built a new computer that day. :-)
My friend has a 730 with DDR3. I felt so bad for him that I bought him a 960 for Christmas
I have used 3 years ago a GT640 2GB GDDR5 model, GV-N640D5-2GI (from gigabyte) and it was damn good the price I've got it. I was playing GTA 5 with 900p and a mix of normal and high settings and my FPS were around 50-60, and on fallout 4 again 900p with a mix of low-medium and I was getting 30-50 (diamond city was the place where it was dropping to 30's).
4 years from now i predict that you will do a similar video about how bad the gt 1030 is in 2024 or something
I think the gddr5 is going to perform reasonably better. It reminds me of the gtx 1660 versus the 1660 super case not so long ago. The aforementioned was gddr5 and it had some nice performance but was lacking something. The latter is exactly the same as a 1660 but with gddr6 memory, which increased the memory bandwidth a lot, increasing the performance to the point of a 1660 ti which is the best you can get before entering rtx. Just that little difference adds between 10 and 15 fps at least.
The GDDR5 is exactly the GTX 650 which can sometimes be cheaper.
There was a 2GB DDR5 version, was tempted to get one once.
yeah it'll still struggle these days, but I'm sure it'll do way better than this one
@@RandomGaminginHD Not sure, but it doesn't seem much better than the 730 GT anyway, even the 730 GT DDR5 isn't much to go by.
Yeees, please compare it to the GDDR5 version. I had an argument with a friend over this recently
I was running a gtx 745 4gb ddr3 card for years. Ddr3 cards even today are not to bad. Just need to adjust settings. Even got cyberpunk at 720p medium with half Res scale getting over 30fps which I was supprised
940m was also DDR3 but was laptop only. I believe technically it's the last DDR3 GPU released by Nvidia.
It's similar to the ever so popular Gt 940Mx in laptops.
Yeah. I did have lots of memories with that GPU on my asus laptop. In 2020, it struggles with modern titles even at lowest settings. Glad I had the 25W variant tho, the 15W variant is even much slower.
@@arjaydee6379 I have been using it from 2016 till to day and will probably be using for the next 5 years as well.
Installing Asus GPU Tweak 2 and setting the temperature target to 85 some how unlocked the tdp of mine. consumes around 27 to 30 watts.
OCed to 1310MHz and 1600Mhz on the memory.
i have a cooling fan and placed thermal pads between the heatsink and laptop back panel for improved cooling
cyberpunk 2077 720p 50 percent resolution scale with meduim settings is possible at 40 to 50 fps
I am currently using an oem gtx 745. Its a pretty good gpu for what it is. Upgrading to an rx 560 this week!
If you could get ahold of the GDDR5 variant that would be cool. Im interested in seeing how well that would run.
man this is old now after hearing ddr5 is coming out
When i had to choose my First Laptop i choose the Gt750m with 4 GB Ddr3 Vram over the 2 GB Ddr5 Model, because i thought the more the better... Glad i have a 2080 ti now
What you should do is get some really old high end graphics cards. Like from the GeForce 6000-9000 series cards but only the top end variants. Compare some of those high end cards to very low end cards from now and yesteryear. 710,410,210, and amd offerings. You can even test sli on the cards that support it and compare it to crossfire on budget amd offerings. I remember seeing a review a while back benchmarking a 512mb high end gpu that was able to destroy a 2gb offering from years later. Even on slightly newer games as long as it didn’t run into vram issues.
Here’s another idea, how much crossfire or sli power using older gpus does it take to beat a 3060ti. Stick to only games that support multi gpu, specifically ones that scale across 3-4 gpus. It would be interesting to see if 4x580s or dual 6gb Titans could beat it. Can dual 980ti? It would make for some awesome content. Especially if you can find deals on those cards or team up with someone who already has samples available.
How much type of you made these videos they are amazing I love you like can you make like in something like cool an awesome view
Happy new year 🎆🎊🎈
Thank u for more videos 😁
I just got r6 and I'm playing at the lowest possible Res with around 30 FPS and honestly I've never been happier with my laptop
I had a 4GB GDDR5 version that I put in a pc for a friend. You should take a look at the ddr4 version of the GT 1030
My phone crashed during this video and I had to crack open it, to pull out the battery, for the shit to boot again!
Actually, the card isn't as bad as I've thought, it's painful slow, but you can throw away everything at it and will play!
I bought a 4gb variant of this card for a pc that I am now using as my htpc about 8 years ago not knowing at the time that my hp motherboard has a secure boot issue that prevents it from working with most gpus other than what it came with. Ended up putting it in a build with a phenom ii x4 910 that I sold to a coworker that actually could handle older games pretty well. Think I paid about $50 for it when I bought it.
holy crap I USED TO HAVE THIS. Mine had 1GB GDDR5. I got it from a PC that was in the trash, yeah lol I sometimes sneak into nice place that is sort of like a old pc junkyard. people take their old PCs there and they are destroyed. breaks my heart so I sneak in from time to time and rescue some of them.
What do you think of the 750 Ti in 2020 for most games? I got that gpu, was thinking of upgrading to something better to play more demanding games soon.
I remember a friend of mine having a GT 740 4GB (DDR3) back then xD
I wish they released a 40 variant of the 30, 20 adn 10 series. Seems like a good lil spot for some who play MOBAS.
I can't remember if it was DDR 3 or G DDR5 But I remember being amazed at GTA5 running at 1333 by 768 on My old GT640 At almost 50 frames per 2nd When it launched
Could you include from which year each game is that you test? Would be a nice addition, to make everything look more professional.
The gtx 750ti and r7 360 still going strong in 2020 imo
I don't understand why people say "All I can afford is a $60 GPU" and then they go out and buy brand new games every month for $60. Just buy some games on sale or used instead. There you go. A $120 GPU is a far, far better choice compared to being so impatient.
who are these people? Heck, I can actually afford games but I still wait for sales. That's why I prefer pc gaming to console games, faster and larger price drops
people who can't afford a $60 gpu are not buying $60 games every month. Not sure who you know who does this
for that matter, I'd argue that in many parts of the world, piracy is a frequent answer for games. Not to mention the rise of free games. Nowadays you have ample selection of BR games for free to play (Apex, Fortnite, Warzone and a host of others) or games like League, Valorant etc etc
Just be glad its not 64bit like the DDR4 version of the GT 1030
