I had this GPU all the way back in 2013 when I built my first PC until about 2020 when I upgraded. It definitely didn't perform as good as it did in this video as I had it paired with an FX-6300, 4Gb of ram and a slow HDD but nice to see it's performing pretty decent in 2024 with the right setup, great video!
Good video. Now try the 7790 1gb with an overclocked AMD 5150 or 5350 etc. "The original Xbox One’s CPU is equivalent to two overclocked AMD Athlon 5150's". I bought an AMD AM1 cpu & motherboard when it was released for fun and because it was so cheap, and I remember that it couldn't do much of anything well. Double that would have been better but I doubt it would have been great. Sometimes it seems that console makers have performed magic to get games to run on it's hardware.
Id argue the w5100 4gb is even closer to the xbox ones gpu, as its damn near identical specs while having a cooling design just as limiting as the xbox's
I have several of these for my old retro PC's, I have more than 20 retro pc's in my collection. During one of the mining shortages a few years back I purchased 4 or 5 of them on Ebay for very reasonable prices at the time and why I have so many. Off to watch the HD 7850 video next, I just got one of them couple days ago and looking forward to seeing that in action.
It was a well reviewed card at launch. A bit late to the party for the series it was part of, but capable and good value. Today, like other original 7000 series cards, it plays old games well, but don't ask it to cope with Starfield!
it will actually perform better on your pc verse the actual console the console would have been held back from a much slower cpu, so you'd actually get more performance from this gpu not saying a lot, but some is better than none
I think the Nimez drivers would help this little guy, AMD has done a tone of optmizations over the years in their drivers, the moddified ones can even launch games the official block
I have my own gaming pc with a 7900gre, 2tb nvme 850x ssd and 1000W corsair power supply and 32gb ram with i5 13600k. I bought my son the white Xbox one s and it can run fortnite and fallout 4 no problems still in 2024 after a decade only paid 70$ and got the 1tb console with two controllers great value for hit kiddo
@@anarchitect1470 Sure it'd be interesting to see the comarisons today over a decade on ... especially with Vulkan and DX12 titles being 20x more abundant than back in the day. The HD4770 beat the HD4830 and even the HD4850 at lower resolutions. But at the time, the 7850 was an entire tier (or more) higher than a 7790. Especially a good overclocker - some of those 7850's reached stock 7870 speeds - the Sapphire cards for example. I was looking to replace my GTX 470 back then and eventually settled on a 7870 but came close to grabbing a 7850 and praying to the silicon gods.
@@cicciograziani6697 Depending on the games you play, upgrading the graphics card first might be better, or you might wait until you want to upgrade the graphics card to upgrade the entire system. Upgrading only the CPU and motherboard isn't going to help a lot with a GTX 1660, at least with most games. As far as what CPU you should get, or when to upgrade, it definitely depends on what games a person is playing, and on how soon you think you might upgrade your graphics card again, and it also really depends what kind of prices you can find in your region. if you're looking on the used market, prices can be all over the place. The AM4 motherboard platform has been great, but not all AM4 CPUs are particularly good, and if you're looking on the used market for a good deal for a budget system, you should be open to Intel as well, except I would probably advise you to avoid Intel 13th and 14th gen CPUs completely, because many being sold on the used market could be damaged, as that generation has suffered from extremely high failure rates and high rates of un-fixable instability, so the CPU might seem like it's working fine but not actually be totally fine. If someone is looking to upgrade from an i4770, I would recommend going directly to a 5600 at bare minimum with AMD, or look for Intel 12th gen, or maybe even Intel 10th or 11th gen. Anything slower than those CPUs is not likely to improve performance enough over an i7 4770 to really be worth going through the trouble of upgrading the entire motherboard platform, unless maybe you can find an amazing price, and if you get a great price on an AM4 system with an older Ryzen CPU, you can maybe think about upgrading to a Ryzen 5000 CPU later on. You are generally far more restricted for CPU upgrades when it comes to Intel motherboards, though hopefully that will change with upcoming Intel motherboard platforms. Also, the naming of some CPUs from AMD can be misleading. Avoid the Ryzen 5700 for gaming unless you can get it for really cheap, because it's actually significantly slower than the 5600 in games, despite having two more cores. With most AMD CPUs, the non X version is usually extremely similar, but the 5700 is one of the rare examples where it's actually a lot slower than the 5700X, because it is a significantly different chip, with half as much L3 Cache, and it has some other differences as well. For gaming, the 5600 or 5600X are likely to be the best value CPUs for gaming on AM4, though if you find a good enough price on a 5700X or 5800X, or even a 5700X3D or 5800X3D, any of those could also be really good.
I just finally sold my VCR XB1. It was good for a long time, for what it was. I dumped in favor of finding a nice condition Xbox one X. The VCR was barely passable in most later released games and mostly better with indie games or as a streaming device, easier to use than a PC in that respect. The one X is like a top tier gaming PC in comparison to it. As always, PC is the best place to game, but I still like having my consoles around when I need a break from the desk or find REALLY cheap physical games on the marketplace.
@@Lurch-Bot except console games are optimized differently compared to pc games, so they should (and i emphasize should) end up running and looking better than on a pc with similar specs
@@CodeStrife7No longer the case. It is true but mostly at edge cases of low performance or basic versions of consoles. Rx590 can run it better every time, especially thanks to better CPU and separate, additional ram in PC. Today's consoles scale almost, 1:1 with PC parts. Coz PS5 is basically Ryzen 4700 downclocked - Ryzen 3600 / 5500 performance and rx6700. XSX is marginally better.
@Lurch-Bot You got corrected already, so I didn't have to. You need to brush up on how console hardware works in relation to optimized titles vs PC hardware of what is perceived as being the same level.. I have a Strix R9 380 in my collection also BTW and this is my 3rd Xbox one X.
I had a 7770 and a 7870XT(taxiti) for 2 of my PCs, both died in the last year, artifacts( prob memory). They were money well spent, these days if i wanted some dirt cheap and efficient, would get a 750ti (20-30eur), otherwise an RX 470 is best for ultra-budget gaming. High end 7xxx cards are bad considering power consumption/performance ratio.
I fully agree with you. The RX 470/570, well any Polaris card for that matter is an awesome budget card in 2024. Will play most games out there. As for your artifacts, that’s more than likely memory
@@ProYamYamPC I would have suggested using the nodded gpu drivers to launch more games and get better perf along with OCing the gpu as it uses low power but also test with a cpu closer to the original instead of the 7600
Uhh, no you didn't. The 7790 has 896 cores and the Xbox one had 768. Also, the Xbox One uses GCN 1.0 and the 7790 uses GCN2.0. There is no actual direct equivalent, though the difference between GCN 1.0 and 2.0 performance is around 1-2%. The FirePro W5100 (also GCN 2.0) is as close as you can get to the Xbox One GPU.
The R7 260X is this same GPU but with 2 GB of VRAM.
You are right, I had an Asus dual 7790 2 GB card and used it with the R7 260x bios for a while.
