  • Hello everyone and Welcome to another Budget Build Video where today we're going to be taking a look at just how far we can push this absolutely tiny amount of VRAM, which is on none other than the worlds most powrful 256MB Card...The strange low end version of the high end card...Nvidias 8800GT.
    So join me today as we put this card up against some of todays biggest titans (that will launch on the card)
    Games tested:
    -GTA V
    -CSGO
    -Eqilinox
    -Halo MCC (Sort of)
    -Crysis
    -Minecraft
    Music:
    Simcity - Population 1 Night Mix
    MGS 3 - Sea breeze

      @@kidori121 4MB VRAM? Are you kidding? Sony says PS3 GPU (Nvidia Nvidia 7800GTX based of) is 1.8TFLOPS in their press specs... then Sony lists behind links only during release times PS4 GPU had 1.84TFLOPS. Tell me about progress there. PS2 is totally not there with 4MB VRAM to be said to be even close. The thing which separates PS3 of others is XDR Ram speed and IBM Cell cpu which power was passed only recently in raw power by Ryzen cpu's lately (if you knew how to use it).

    Back in 2012-2013, my brother-in-law gave me a Radeon 4550 HD with 512 MB of VRAM and I immediately paired it with my then current build: a Dual Core 5400E and 2 GBs of RAM. I was so happy that I could run Doom 3 BFG flawlessly with some tweaks here and there. Sure, drivers' support for the card are dead now, but I still love it for what it meant to me: the chance to play some of my favorite games without worrying too much about the lack of VRAM. I still have the card but I no longer use it, given that my old build died about 10 months ago. I currently use a laptop and I have the card only as an emergency display adapter for other builds. Have a good one, everyone!

    Well done review as always. However, i know 2 things which could improve the specsheet in the beginning of the video:
    - Add core and memory clockspeeds (also shader clock if it's an older card).
    - Add the buswidth to the memorytype. This would be a good indicator of the card's memory bandwidth.

    Nvidia's Riva 128, 32mb of vram..

    WOW! Finally competition for my garbage A8-9600's iGPU (I can't even give it more VRAM, cause I have an a320 mobo and I wasn't able to find an option for it in the BIOS. I don't think it would increase my FPS by a lot, even if I could change it)

    I Know it doesnt have anything to do with this video, but for the people running Q6600 and similar cpu's under windows 10 read this: Today i installed windows 10 on my old q6600 optiplex and the Cinebench r15 score was much lower than in Windows 7 (232 compared to 301) and i found out that core 2 cpu's are also affected by Meltdown patches, so i downloaded an app called inSpectre and disabled the patches with that and now the performance is back to normal. Made a huge difference
    Edit: if the scores seem too high to you the cpu is BSEL modded so its at 3GHz

  • @ItsPikablu
    @ItsPikablu 4 года назад

    The problem is that lower VRAM cards are sometimes actually made worse, such as the 1060 3GB vs 6GB. The 3GB version was specifically given less CUDA cores, meaning its easy for people to think a lower VRAM is a worse card.

    I was trying to play team fortress 2 on a 17 year old pc, the specs were: AMD 1GB graphics card, 8GB ram, and a quad core AMD athlon q9600. But anyways, I jammed it full of configs and mods, but I realized that the provided lowest settings were enough. Therefore the mods were actually slowing it down.

    In a 32bit operating system, hypermemory is a pain in the neck. That card has adequate support for googlemaps 3D and general html5 webpages. Better than being lumped with hypermemory (for some people). For a few rarely played niche games (if you truly love them), you can SLI two if you feel like it. As an aside, it has good Nouveau drivers in linux. I think Tropico4 'State Of Emergency' DLC (from mid 2014) would have been worth a try.

    Funny you came the conclusion early in the video that it compares close to an Intel HD 520. I came into possession of a system with a HD 530; after running it through it's paces found it's close to a 2007-2009 card. Some benchmarks land it a bit below the AMD HD 4830, others close to the 2006 8xxx line you're looking at today. :)
    Kind of neat that we've seen 10x perf per watt improvement the past decade. The fact the HD 530 can run games that used to take a 105w+ card to is impressive to me.

    Good video showing that 256MB VRAM can be somewhat viable these days. But I also have a suggestion on trying out the 7100 GS or 6100 which is possibly the worst DX9 supporting GPU in my experience but its slightly better than the Geforce 2 mx400 card you reviewed years ago.

    I use Quadro 2000 in my "Ultimate Windows XP PC" I prefer nVidia, but their drivers newer than v285.58 start having some visual bugs in some games (texture flickering e.t.c.)(Tomb Raider III, Turok 2, Far Cry) So the most powerful GPU's supported by this driver use Fermi architecture. This PC also uses pretty weak PSU, that"s why I needed to use a card without external power connectors, and Quadro 2000 is the perfect choice - it is the most powerful Fermi without the connector! :)

  • @Wushu-viking

    I remember exactly 12 years ago, I bought a new 8800 GT with 1 GB VRAM. (Didn't think I'll ever need that much, but price was the same as the 512 at that deal).
    Would have been fun to test it today with 1 GB. Should eliminate the huge FPS drops.
    VRAM is really working primerely as a framebuffer in games, so when you need to acces system RAM, the latency on the platform (Card>PCIE>MB>CPU>RAM>PCIE>Card) is a lot higher then on the card itself. Hence the lags.

    Gaming with only 256MB of VRAM in 2020? Man. I still have my 2010 MacBook Pro with an NVIDIA GeForce 320M with 256MB of VRAM (released in 2010, and it's an integrated graphics card). It's great, however, I wonder if I can play any games with only 256MB of VRAM, but having a decent FPS, in 2020?
    It will never die. I have used it for 10 years and... guess what? It's still working perfectly fine! At least, the thermal paste has not been taken care of, but I don't want to do that, it's wasting my time. It's fine now.
    And, the best of all, older graphics cards DOESN'T MEAN it's getting WORSE. Somehow, they're BETTER than the graphics card on your new computer.
    Needless to say, can you play Minecraft and get a decent FPS with only 256MB of VRAM?
