That would be really interesting. Modern CPUs have become much faster, but one could assume that games old enough to support software rendering won't take make use of modern instructions like SSE4 or AVX, and most likely also not of multiple cores.
@TotallySearch I mean, actually rendering the graphics on the cpu cores in software rendering, not the igpu, just to see how modern cpus compare to old outdated budget cards. Would probably be very slow, but maybe a fun experiment.
@@TotallySearch Back before '96 GPUs didn't even exist yet, except maybe in $100,000 SGI workstations, you had to render 3D on your CPU. Even then, it took a while(maybe '06 or so? details are kinda sketchy due to senility) before pretty much everyone had a GPU. In '96 you had to actually have a separate PPU(Picture Processing Unit, more commonly known as a graphics card back then, they don't make 'em anymore, it rendered 2D graphics) and GPU, whereas these days your GPU has a PPU built in. You had to plug your PPU's VGA out into the GPU's VGA in, then plug the VGA out on the GPU to your monitor to get the 3D output of the GPU overlaid onto the 2D out of the PPU. I suppose you could consider the 2 separate cards as the first 2 slot graphics cards.
OpenGL can use the CPU to execute calls unsupported by the GPU, so "supports OpenGL" can get muddy in some instances. The Mesa library for Linux contains OpenGL and Vulkan software renderers with DX12 emulation. Crysis was demonstrated to run on a Threadripper 3990X a few years ago, though performance was below what's generally considered playable (but not that far off from when "But can it run Crysis?" was an earnest question). The biggest problem with software rendering vs. cruddy video cards is probably optimization. You'd be pitting what exists for compatibility or research purposes against a mature driver set aimed at gaming.

Yep. The GT-710 is basically a display adapter at this point. It will provide negligible or even negative improvement in performance over Skylake (Intel 6th Gen Core), and against a more powerful iGPU such as the Vega 8, or the Intel Equivalent, it will fall short by a noticeable margin. The only benefit it has is 4K60 video since many Mobos use only HDMI 1.4. If you want any benefit, get a GT-1030 or a used RX-460 or an equivalent.

Strangely, some people seem to think that so called "4K" screen resolutions are a new phenomenon. Playback of modern, highly compressed 4K video formats or playing DX12 3D games at 4K is a relatively recent development for typical home users, but that's not the same as being able to output a "4K" resolution at a reasonable refresh rate. That's been possible for a long time.
Seeing that old afterburner theme: how good things were when it also still had the shade clock slider to REALLY boost performance on GPUs which had enough cooling.
Cards like this had their uses back then, it was a nice way to improve the media capabilities of older PCs. I used to have an HD 5450 in my HTPC when I got my first HDMI receiver. It was great for watching HD movies with Dolby TrueHD/DTS-HD/LPCM 7.1 audio. What if you could get a 4010 today with 4K AV1 decoding? That could be useful for many people. But sub-$100 GPUs seem to be a thing of the past.

One thing you need to watch out for with these passively-cooled cards is that they run very hot and will auto-throttle if they hit 90 degrees C. You need to make sure your case has good cooling.
For the games that gives a playable FPS at 2160p, I would recommend people to try 1800p, it will give a pretty sharp image (around 83ish % of 2160) and a slight boost in FPS (sometimes the boost could be higher, depending on GPU).
Your speech is so calming and serene now I feel comforted even clicking on your videos. Really admire the tests you do, along with Wormz gaming who similarly takes up on the cause. I believe he started taking the cards he is reviewing on his garden too xD I really like that.
It's so funny how the GT 710 is said to be a "budget" card, but it's actually more expensive to get it new or used than a lot of other cards that would be better
Just a brilliant video, I loved that fact that games like valorant and half life 2 could run well, and I must admit I've never played half life so that's on my to play list 😀
Anybody who hasn't played the original Half Life series or Half Life 2, cannot call themselves a proper 3D gamer. 😉 Anyone interested in the FPS genre needs to play original Doom, Quake, Unreal and Half Life. Whilst not the first "3D" or FPS games, they were each huge leaps and defining moments in their own right.
@@another3997 I will give you this, I'm definitely going to play half life 1 and 2 through, I have been playing games since I got a commodore 64 in the early 1980s so I can't miss half life out 😀👍
idk if I'd say it ran Valorant "well", but rather just kinda okay at 4K. It would probably run much better at 1080p, which is 1/4 of 4K in pixels and perhaps as much as 4x the frame rate at 1080p vs 4K. That would be kind of an interesting comparison.
@@Tekedon True. It's just that, sometimes when I compare my existing card to the brand new stuff, it starts to feel a little inadequate, especially with some people saying that 8 GB of VRAM is not enough anymore. But then I realize that everything I play at the moment runs fine, and it goes away.
4K gaming on a GT710.....gotta love your optimism mate. But worth a shot, performing these tests so we dont have to lol. I think that seagull was laughing at the GTA5 framerates lol
I was wondering how these Minecraft results would compare to a modded instance with either Optifine or Sodium installed? Would be interesting to see how much those optimisation mods help out that poor little 710
That it could do any of that at all was impressive. considering the age of the card type. They are mainly decent for setting up video or home entertainment set ups since they have decent encoders for some movie types. I put one of these in my grams old PC just to update and old 15 year old computer.
It's not really surprising, hardware acceleration for OpenGL and Direct X standards has been around for a very long time. Those standards change relatively slowly. A lot of games will support older versions because the developers know not everyone upgrades the moment something changes. In reality, rhe GT710 isn't actually that old. 😁
Same thing with the GT 710's older cousin, the GeForce 210. Nowadays, the GeForce 210 is basically impossible to play games on (and even if you do manage to launch a game, good luck playing it on a resolution higher than 640x480), but back in the day, the GeForce 210 was a really good GPU for encoding H.264
I got like a 2gb ddr3 zotac version of gt710 (the one with a fan) and it's probably worse than the one you used in the video ofcourse but hey it gets the job done for me even tho I really wanna upgrade it 😮💨
I just got the same fanless Asus card but as a GT 730 around the time this video posted, I'm planning on putting it in an old Optiplex 780 with a Core 2 Duo E8400 I just got for free and loading up a WinXP "retro" machine. I was glad to see HL2:Lost Coast in this test as that's pretty much the higher end of what I'll be running but at much lower resolution (got a free 4:3 LCD as well). The 7XX cards are the latest officially supported by NV drivers and I think these will work out well for cheap nostalgia builds.
@@moardargons8160I think they meant "had this card been invented" in 1996. In which case games would have quickly taken advantage, just like they did for early 3D cards in the 1990s. Certainly a GT710 makes cards like the original, cutting edge 3Dfx Voodoo and GeForce 256, look like children's toys. 😁
Do you mean a desktop APU like the Ryzen 7 5700g, or a mobile APU like the Ryzen 7 7045 with 780M graphics? I know he has a Ryzen 5 5600g and a SFF PC with 780M graphics. I think he compared the 780M to a GTX 1060 3GB and found it was close in a few games. The 5600g(and likely the 5700g) would be a fair bit slower.
Considering this is 4k, that oc is very usable for 1080p gaming. Card just doesn't have that kind of bandwidth but is clearly capable at lower res for what it is.
@@marvinmallette6795Evidence for the instability in this case and likelihood of permanent damage? Modern GPUs will start "glitching" long before permanent damage sets in. So unless you zap them with a sudden overvolt or leave them cooking despite the obvious signs, permanent damage is unlikely.
i saw your vids man, and i got myself a palit 4060 rtx 1 fan, the card its great but my airflow is bad and heats up easily with max settings, loving the content
I am happy with my gddr5 2GB version, with an added fan as a fan in a pci slot, but not in the pci slot, only mounted to a cover panel below the GPU. And I can say, that fan added is a very good heat curve stabilizer. But recently not playing with it, so I have no updates how this or that game would run.
Interesting video again! As a recommendation: I haven't seen a thin client yet on your channel, like a Fujitso Futro S920, or Dell Wyse 3040, or a HP T630, f.e. . :) They are pretty cheap around here (Germany), and some models are surprisingly well equipped. The Futro f.e. can be expended with a low profile VGA and Sata hard-drive.
@@RuruFIN well this if fine too for example red dead redemption 2 at ultra texture and most of the settings on high (some demanding on off) i managed to get between 60 and 80fps. But i am actually unhappy if i need to play newer games at 4K like the last of us part 1 or starfield. I guess with this gpu that's a no go....
@@Chrissy717 rip indeed. I think future games like starfield won't run good even at 1440p medium settings.... unfortunately i will need to upgrade if i want to play those games at a decent detail on my TV.. but yeah...
I feel the pain - 8GB on that card is an absolute joke , and I'm glad I got the 2080ti instead and overclocked it hard which gives similar FPS but doesn't choke with VRAM nearly as much at 4k.
This makes me happy, my GTX750 feels warm and fuzzy seeing this, more so as I'm at HD and not 4K. What I'm and probably others would be interested in is power consumption. As from experience, a 30w saving in power for PC on a monthly usage equates to £5 a month saving on electricity usage. So with this in mind, what other options to achieve the same performance and their respective power consumption be nice to know. Heck if you can spend an extra £60 on a graphics card that saves you 30 watts over your budgeted one, you should revise your budget or at the least be aware of that aspect. Running costs can make spending a little more budget out cheaper in the mid-long run. Certainly adding a power measuring plug into your test rig would add little effort and cost, and provide easy added value data that, for the budget-conscious (if your gaming in HD, that's you that is), would be neat. I mean, frames per kilowatt of electricity would be asking a bit too much, but just average or max power draw be darn good to know for the budget buyers, even if a finger in the air metric. I also wonder, what is the best graphics card that can run on just the PCIe slot power alone? Seagul should be sampled and used as a soundbite for those canned laughter moments, used sparingly of course.
I would love to see GT710 vs software (CPU) rendering on a modern cpu, would be interesting
That would be really interesting. Modern CPUs have become much faster, but one could assume that games old enough to support software rendering won't take make use of modern instructions like SSE4 or AVX, and most likely also not of multiple cores.

Games in 1996 wouldn't have known what to do with this card. However in the Windows XP era (2001-2007) it would have been the bomb.
@@moardargons8160I think they meant "had this card been invented" in 1996. In which case games would have quickly taken advantage, just like they did for early 3D cards in the 1990s. Certainly a GT710 makes cards like the original, cutting edge 3Dfx Voodoo and GeForce 256, look like children's toys. 😁
Absolute Mad Lad! o7
If nothing else, it is entertaining. Man that had to be frustrating to go through testing all that.
Gt710 is legendary and will always be remembered 😂
Seagull had its say on the matter.
Yep haha
Wow! This is my card! Thank you!
I wish you could snatch the most powerful APU and see how it runs with modern titles.
Do you mean a desktop APU like the Ryzen 7 5700g, or a mobile APU like the Ryzen 7 7045 with 780M graphics? I know he has a Ryzen 5 5600g and a SFF PC with 780M graphics. I think he compared the 780M to a GTX 1060 3GB and found it was close in a few games. The 5600g(and likely the 5700g) would be a fair bit slower.
Considering this is 4k, that oc is very usable for 1080p gaming. Card just doesn't have that kind of bandwidth but is clearly capable at lower res for what it is.
@@marvinmallette6795Evidence for the instability in this case and likelihood of permanent damage? Modern GPUs will start "glitching" long before permanent damage sets in. So unless you zap them with a sudden overvolt or leave them cooking despite the obvious signs, permanent damage is unlikely.
i saw your vids man, and i got myself a palit 4060 rtx 1 fan, the card its great but my airflow is bad and heats up easily with max settings, loving the content
The i5 12400f : you ! Just wake me up when u finish the test
In this video we see the poor machine spirit of this GPU being brutally tortured.
This is going to be painful....
I am happy with my gddr5 2GB version, with an added fan as a fan in a pci slot, but not in the pci slot, only mounted to a cover panel below the GPU. And I can say, that fan added is a very good heat curve stabilizer. But recently not playing with it, so I have no updates how this or that game would run.
Interesting video again!
As a recommendation: I haven't seen a thin client yet on your channel, like a Fujitso Futro S920, or Dell Wyse 3040, or a HP T630, f.e. . :)
They are pretty cheap around here (Germany), and some models are surprisingly well equipped. The Futro f.e. can be expended with a low profile VGA and Sata hard-drive.
I'm not exactly sure why I watch videos like this, but, I do 😂
Nice PPT presentation
My childhood graphic's card!.
Here i am complaining that i game at 4K with a 3070ti...
6700 XT here. With a little lower details and/or FSR quality, it's fine at 4K.
RIP 8 GB of VRAM
@@RuruFIN well this if fine too for example red dead redemption 2 at ultra texture and most of the settings on high (some demanding on off) i managed to get between 60 and 80fps. But i am actually unhappy if i need to play newer games at 4K like the last of us part 1 or starfield. I guess with this gpu that's a no go....
@@Chrissy717 rip indeed. I think future games like starfield won't run good even at 1440p medium settings.... unfortunately i will need to upgrade if i want to play those games at a decent detail on my TV.. but yeah...
I feel the pain - 8GB on that card is an absolute joke , and I'm glad I got the 2080ti instead and overclocked it hard which gives similar FPS but doesn't choke with VRAM nearly as much at 4k.
This one should be made during pandemics
This makes me happy, my GTX750 feels warm and fuzzy seeing this, more so as I'm at HD and not 4K.
What I'm and probably others would be interested in is power consumption. As from experience, a 30w saving in power for PC on a monthly usage equates to £5 a month saving on electricity usage. So with this in mind, what other options to achieve the same performance and their respective power consumption be nice to know. Heck if you can spend an extra £60 on a graphics card that saves you 30 watts over your budgeted one, you should revise your budget or at the least be aware of that aspect. Running costs can make spending a little more budget out cheaper in the mid-long run.
Certainly adding a power measuring plug into your test rig would add little effort and cost, and provide easy added value data that, for the budget-conscious (if your gaming in HD, that's you that is), would be neat. I mean, frames per kilowatt of electricity would be asking a bit too much, but just average or max power draw be darn good to know for the budget buyers, even if a finger in the air metric.
I also wonder, what is the best graphics card that can run on just the PCIe slot power alone?
Seagul should be sampled and used as a soundbite for those canned laughter moments, used sparingly of course.
After finishing the benchmark, how long were you convulsing on the floor from the slide show induced seizure?
Quake III should run fine...
PLEASE TELL ME IF THE GT710 WORKS I DID THE SAME TO MINE AND IT GOT THE SAME ISSUES, I WANNA REVIVE THAT OLD PC AND PLAY GTA 5 ON IT
