It can survive in the modern day, running at 720 at around 30 fps. (This stat is taken from Fortnite.) This thing also powers for League of Legends, if you're into that, you can get over 100 fps at medium settings, you can lower it or turn off shadows only to get a stable 90- 110 fps. Smooth gameplay. Pretty good gpu, even if it does get a little hot.
