    As someone who builds PC's as a hobby (I've done probably 350 at this point). This is a fantastic video! Gives me all the information I needed. Going to pair it with a 2300X so I'll have to see how it compares to being paired with a 3100. Probably not quite as good but I imagine it'll be pretty close. Subscribed!

      @@westrice6539 if you already installed the gpu then shut the system all the way down and unplug it and then unplug any display cables from the motherboard and plug them into the graphics card on the back and boot the system on.
      If you don’t get a post doing that I recommend clearing cmos (search how to clear cmos on RUclips) and then try booting again.
      Beyond that if it doesn’t work I’d say put the monitor cables back into the motherboard ports and boot from that, go into bios and you may need to disable the igd (integrated graphics) and try to boot from gpu again.

    Your writing and commentary is fantastic, a real way with words. Coincidentally, I ended up buying one of these recently for $80 Canadian. Sadly, the old motherboard I tried it on (Sandy Bridge) would not allow the board to POST (known BIOS issue that never got fixed for that particular board). However, I sold it to someone on whose board it did POST, and put that money towards a $160 GTX 1060 3GB. The old Sandy Bridge i5 + 1060 3GB now hums along quietly in the living as an excellent HTPC. I do wish I could have made the R9 380 work, however .... seems you had considerably better luck than I did.

    The R9 380 was a great card, since it's the one I had… and in fact still do. Til tomorrow, the new RX 6600 (non-XT, XT is still 100 Euros more expensive) arrived today. First new card in over six years. Stoked.
    Last 4 cards were HD 4650, HD 5750, HD 7790, then the R9 380. I do look like an AMD fanboi, don't I? Well, that's *part* of the equation. The other part is that they had, as long as I clearly remember :D the best price/performance _in my budget_. The RX 6600? 260 Euros. More than I'd like to spend, but then again, it's about three times as powerful as the 380. Nvidia's competition? The 3050 is over 300 here, and the 3060 is *way* higher than that. :D

It's not the best card in the world but I'm really impressed with how a $200 GPU from 2016 holds up today. I managed to get a R5 3600 used for $100 to pair with it.

Because I'm really considering to buy this card

    • @IcebergTech
      @IcebergTech  2 года назад +2

      Buying used graphics cards has, of course, a higher risk than buying new, especially if there's no warranty being offered. Crypto mining with GPUs has been a thing for over a decade, extreme overclocking has been a thing for longer than that, and some people don't look after their stuff. Hell, it could get damaged in the post, especially as many people don't keep the original packing for their stuff. Whether you buy used depends on your own aversion to risk.
      As to "high TDP = lower lifespan", it's probably not quite as simple as that. My understanding is that heat is the killer, and a higher TDP only means a lower lifespan if the card isn't adequately cooled. Of course, I might be wrong.

      Yes, I think it probably would. Even in older games like GTA V, a dual core can cause poor frame timing that will make the game feel less smooth.
      The R9 380 is still a good card to buy, but you might want to at least overclock your Pentium or consider upgrading it in the near future to get the most out of it. If you were looking for a cheap CPU upgrade, I see that the E3-1240 V3 can be had for £35 on AliExpress right now, that's a locked i7-4770 near-equivalent CPU.

      Could be a lot of things. First, it is worth running Display Driver Uninstaller and reinstalling your drivers. Also run the Windows Update to make sure everything else is up to date. If you are overclocking the card, maybe try without the OC. If that doesn’t help it might be a hardware issue, and whether you fix or replace it depends on your own confidence dismantling the graphics card. If you are happy to do the job yourself, a general clean with air and isopropyl alcohol followed by a fresh thermal paste application might help.

      @@darthlink64 I have a 4GB R9 380 in an older setup (i7 2600K/8GB); at 1280x960 resolution my FPS results are approximately as follows:
      Shooting range: 60
      Bot multiplayer on Bazaar map: 22
      Tutorial landing pad (after intro scenes): 12-14
      In other words: nope.
