  • @theftking

    Sadly I suspect small form factor GPUs are dying just because the writing on the wall is that integrated graphics will soon be good enough that low-end discrete GPUs will have no place. Small form factor builds will become sooo much smaller once we can rely on RDNA5 integrated graphics to pull 1440/60.
    That isn't even considering SoCs.
    I think this is why Nvidia and AMD stopped competing in this form factor.

    • @RS-nq8xk
      @RS-nq8xk Год назад

      However with current RAM there is no way for consumer platforms to reach 300GB/s with DRAM alone, like these Quadros/RTX3060. And the 'strongest' iGPU likely won't be cheap, as we see the iGPU being cut in half in the R5 6000 processors.
      It sounds more like a cost-effectiveness thing, with 'gaming' GPUs always focusing, or even marketing their dynamic overclocks, low end that can get SFF cards are always going to be heavily cut-down GPUs, like a GTX1650. But it is obvious that a RTX3050, or almost even a 3060 can be power limited to 75w while offering performance similar to a GTX1660 at least. That's a lot more powerful than a 1650. But they probably reckon that for the price it will not be a popular product, so that's why these products simply won't exist.
      Even if we don't keep a 75w cap, at circa-100w you can already get 'at least' RTX2060 performance with the GPU core off a 3060/3060Ti.

    I bought an A2000 2nd hand for a small form factor pc and it's great, it's so power efficient and competent at 1080p, really makes me wish Nvidia would stop making absolutely ridiculous cards like the 4090 for two minutes to make a small form factor GPU that's aimed at the gaming market, the 1650, launched all the way back in 2019, was the last nvidia-branded gaming-GPU in that SFX category but the A2000 demolishes it, it's a total joke that there's no version with a dual fan cooler that's aimed at gamers. (and any AMD cards of this size don't even match the 1650)
    It misses some features out like game-streaming capability because its a work station card but there's no reason for it. It can even do RTX! granted you'll have to lower the resolution on minecraft to get any performance with RTX on but still, just shows what kinda power nvidia can actually pack into a GPU without it costing the earth and sky-rocketing my monthly electric bill.

    I had two of them (now with only one), both had an issue that they would enter an "emergency mode" after some time gaming (stuck at ~40% tdp). I found the issue was the mosfets getting too hot (they aren't cooled), even though the GPU/memory temps were ok. I fixed it by putting some copper tape connecting the mosfets to the nearby inductors (this way the fets could dissipate the heat). Idk how nvidia let this pass, the fets should definitely be cooled.

    I really wanted one of these for my HTPC, which I also do light gaming on. But, the A2000 has no HDMI ports, and that is a deal stopper for an HTPC because many streaming services will not stream HD content to a PC that does not have an encrypted HDMI connection to the monitor. I ended up with an RX6400 due to its power efficiency. My HTPC only has a 180W PSU and I don't want to overstress it.

    I'd love to see mobile Nvidia GPUs being made for PC officially, I'm not into a low profile but they would make for a nice low profile and more importantly for me, the low TDP would make them super silent with the performance comparable with the one model lower PC cards. It's cool the Chinese made unofficial mobile cards for PC but then they have problems with the drivers so it's not really worth the risk of any update breaking them.

      You can replicate most of this by simply limiting power (maybe also slightly overclocking i.e. undervolting).
      However at very low voltages VRAM will try to bump from 5000 to 7000 sometimes, which causes the power drawn to go up slightly (for my 3060ti it goes from ~80 to ~100w when the VRAM clocks up for a short period. If only we could get the Quadro/laptop Max-Q's 6000 VRAM clock setting.
