    even at $125 it's a hard pill to swallow but at least it's better than the 6500XT I guess.

    edit:

    I have no idea what I was looking at earlier lol it’s barely usable.

    Nvidia might be petty about their ways of having the #1 best GPU, but when they found out AMD had the #1 worst GPU, Nvidia was like "NOBODY tops us!"

    This is definitely not a gaming card.
    Office use probably fine. I am sure that is the intended purpose.

    Wow, this is just terrible, the pricing too...

    And here's a card I purchased in 2015 that performs the same, if not better for cheaper....

    vivaldi_K7IWQ2ZJuy.png

    (granted it has 2GB less vram but at this performance level, does it even matter? Oh and this particular card overclocked like mad!)

    I just don't understand it... why is performance regressing at these price points?

    Ya. Like right now in my work desktop I have a GT710 that barely does anything.. like dragging window around the desktop lags the computer. I built this machine with a spare 3900x I had laying around. I want to upgrade the GPU, obviously the 3900x is fine.. I don't want to rebuy a processor for integrated - RX550 was going to be my choice but they are selling for $160 for 4GB. This card is $150 and twice as fast.

    I wouldn't use this for gaming - maybe the RX550 falls in price.. but currently this is literally my top choice for my usecase. crap card overall but it's the best option for me.

    i use to have one of those cards, and use it for like 8 years, in the first installation drivers can be tricky but once you get them working they run smooth enough until you change your windows or something like that, anyway amd drivers have changed a lot, this days you don't have those many problems. i use an nvidia "pro" card this days and it is a nightmare too, from time to time

    I was going to be like oh well, least its just PCIe power draw... least its got that going for it... oh wait its got a 6pin...umm why? it ruins what little niche it might of had xD and only draws 54 watts anyway

    Was always going to be a stupid card but least thought as a pure PCIe card it could be semi cool... but nope can't even have that...least with this model anyway other might be better

    I like having the review even if the card is terrible. I wish there was an "award" for garbage though

    Why is Hilbert even wasting his time reviewing this crap!?!?

    This card is an insult to mankind, in every possible way!

    Shame on you Nvidia!

    At least with his review we all know its crap and to avoid it

    This card is now the worst release even worse than the 6400/6500
