Excellent

It is very sad to have this gpu. I have it.

Good

pretty for budget low profile builds, i could play league at over 200 fps

Good

30 W, cold, cheap, can run every games before 2018 in 1080p medium settings at 30/40 fps . Very good on GTA5 high settings 1080p msaa *2 at 35/40 fps. Perfect for occasional or reasonable players. Just forget watch dogs legion, Red dead or Cyber punk :-) My benchmark gpu 15.2, and with cpu 3350p and 8gb ddr3, my result 14% in gaming, 72 desktop, 11 workstation.

Poor

For someone with a very tight budget, the GT1030 may be an viable option, not especialy good for gaming, but it can take some games (mostly Esports, but it's something).

Good

Decent budget GPU I love it value for money

Excellent

for its price, the performance is outstanding (very comparable to a gtx 1050). the only issue i found was the lack of nvidia nvenc.

Good

the best low profile budget video card. can handle all old games (for example Witcher 3, GTA 5, Tomb raider). cheap, cold, usage only 30W and can be overlocked

Terrible

The Reason is NVIDIA is the inventer of Gpu.And Also the owner.for this i like nVidia most

Liked

Good

best budget gaming graphics card

Good

very good card for entry-level gaming

Good

Cheapest solution for old PC with VP9 HW decode

Excellent

is good for budget builds other than that is very nice

Good

get a chinese card or something else, with today's prices it's not worth it

Good

My name is Donomeule and I love this card I can finally play minectaft in 480p with shaders

Good

I still use my 650TI and it gets 11% better scoring even after 6 years of use =D

Good

useless gpu. just add a few more bucks and get a 1050ti instead.

Good

probably the best budget gpu there is

Poor

Tuve la mejor experiencia con esta Grafica, lastima que no es de almenos 4Gb porque de verdad que me quedaria al menos 5 años mas con ella!!!

Good

i have this graphic card and its awsome for cheap money

Average

Capable of running modern games on 720p low considering its price its amazing

Poor

GTX 750 TI much stronger than him.

Good

its really just an unreliable peice of junk

Terrible

useless office gpu

Terrible

lower peformance than 670! )))) sux

Average

Can be excellent low power discrete GPU (although you get same performance as Vega 11 iGPU on AMD Ryzen 5 2400G and you're lucky to get GDDR5 ones) or weak little ants (if you got GT 1030 with DDR4 VRAM which makes VRAM itself a bottleneck for this GPU).

Poor

Not bad, not decent. 30 watt usage is the only reason why this is 2 stars.

Excellent

Good for turning an old office pc into a cheap esport gaming pc (as long as you buy the GDDR5 version)

Good

A cheap GPU for sure. GTX 1030 can work for most mid-games at low to med settings and this GPU has power consumption of 30W meaning it should technically work in almost any PC configuration. If you need more power, consider switching to a GTX 1050 instead along with a stronger PSU.

Average

At least get the GDDR5 version, but it's more worth it to go with a Ryzen APU.

Good

Decent budget card, although not for retail prices. Plays e-sport titles at 1080p low to medium settings just fine, and capable of AAA titles in 1080p low or 720p medium depending on title. Overall nothing wrong with this card, just watch out for the DDR4 variants which have have the performance of the GDDR5 ones.

Average

GPU is okay. Gets okay performance on games but is generally only meant as a graphics accelerator rather than a gaming card. Exactly equivalent performance to the GPU found in the A15 Bionic chip from the Apple iPhone 13 series. Consumes only 30w of power which is very efficient!

Excellent

This is good graphic card to play fortnite and more new and old game.

Good

GDDR5 variants are quite competent for graphics! At least, within reasonable limits of its price point and capability. Hilariously wonderful for old 32-bit games.

Good

A newer 750 Ti with somewhat lower power draw.

Average

GT 1030 is slightly overpriced compared to a used gtx 750ti but performs really well in a lower wattage and is on par with the gtx 650 and sometimes gets on par with the GTX 750 non ti and is a step higher than its predecessor the gt 730 it is an okay card for its price and a very good card for htpc and low wattage budget build

Excellent

There's not many cards like this in the market; for $60-90, you're getting a card that sucks only 30 watts, is easily overclockable, comes in low profile or passive cooled, requires no power connecters, and enough juice that it will run most games (esports? Not a problem) if you're not nitpicky. People buy this for compatibility & availability, not power; can't ask for more at this price point. Doesn't deserve the criticism.

Excellent

This card wasn't made for gaming, the GT1030 is a normal desktop pc, not oriented for gaming, for that time was a good choice for budget gaming

Good

Its good

Good

It was my first "gaming card" i had a gt710 and then i bought this, it was like a whole new world for me.

Terrible

because it was so bad it diddnt helped me drown out my sorrows of losing my family to a plane crash yesterday. A man hijacked a plane and crashed into our house, but I was at work because I work 130 hours a week.

Excellent

best price/performance card out there

Excellent

It's not for gaming, but it does its job perfectly well.

Excellent

pretty gnarly yo

Poor

Very weak even for its time.

Average

office GPU, that gives a sort of playable gameplay at low resolutions and low graphics settings. Not a bad variant for a little kid or a temporary variant in the world of scalpers we now live in. Just be aware, that there are 2 variants of 1030, one with gddr5 memory is much better than the other one with ddr4. Like, we are talking about 50% FPS decrease here, so gt 1030 with gddr5 is the only viable option. Also Ryzen 3 2200G and Ryzen 5 2400G can provide the same gaming experience, so take some time when picking parts for a new pc

Good

I haven't got the card just yet but will put it to the test thats for sure. im buying it for a friend for 50 dollars is a great buy for it I mean you can actually game on a 50 dollar gpu and get decent frames... this card was meant for picture and video only light work loads video playback on cpus thats don't offer internal graphics.. so for this card to be able to pump out 80+ frames on some games then it gets two thumbs up from me..

Excellent

Best mid range gpu for games like csgo , valorant , etc cheap and good

Good

Not quite the best performing card, but it only consumes 30-watts of power, making it compatible with a huge variety of prebuilt systems that have very limited power supply watts. However, you should not spend more than $100 on this thing.

Excellent

Muy barata y rinde en lo juegos.

Excellent

Uses a very low 30watts of power and is enough to run the latest games on high setting at just above 30fps more powerful than any consol

Excellent

its awesome and i can play fortnite at near high settings! and i can overclock it easily and make it so i can run fortnite at high settings! so its great for $110 and its normally $70 (but thanks to miners its $110) so it has great overclocking potential and is a great gpu!

Good

Following the launch of his elder sisters, the last member of the Pascal architecture was released in mid '17 to fight back the AMD's RX550. With 384 cuda cores, 2GB of GDDR5, a bus width of 64 bits and a tiny 30W of power consumption, the GT1030 was the first "GT" card to be sold as a "gamer" card. It will surely struggle with AAA games in 1080p at high or ultra presets, but for MOBA titles, indie games, emulation and casual gaming it could excell on these tasks as it is still a little bit overkill for just media playing. The strenghs of this card are clearly its lower price tag (though the end of the mining craze has made the price to reach the 100$ frontier in some places, due to the shortage and the overprice of the rest of the cards, making this one most of the times the only way for the non-miner customers) and the really low power consumption. This make this card a good option for renewing old or second hand corporate PCs with low wattage power supplies and maybe for pairing with a Pentium Gold/i3-8100 while you wait for the rest of the grahic card market to lower the price without suffering with the Intel HD Graphics.

Excellent

Great card for an easy upgrade to an older computer, was about $72 at purchase for a 10x performance improvement over integrated graphics.

Excellent

10/10

Good

super cheap yet still get close to 100fps with low settings on fortnite.

Excellent

Good for SFF case with GT 1030 low profile

Excellent

Good Overclocking for a 79€ passive-cooled graphics card

Excellent

Now, this card is EXTREMELY low power (30W), requires no PCLE Plugins, its great. Now we get to the (obvious) issue, Speed. The card is good for basic internet things and some moderate gaming. I'm going to upgrade my pc and it will have an RTX 2070, I won't forget my 1030 Days.

Excellent

It is the best thing that will fit in my PC. I'd go for something better if I could, but oh well :D (Please release a GT3030 or something soon)

Excellent

It can handle more than enough in a budget price. It uses only 30W and needs no extra power cables Unfortunately, 64bit ram bus and locked features (ex gtx codecs) bottleneck it!

Average

Decent card for undemanding esports games but be careful not to get the DDR4 version. I got the DDR4 version for $200 and when I try to do a Blender render on it, it feels slower than even my laptop's old 5th gen Intel CPU!

Good

This little card is definitely something. It's a good solution for office tasks and very light gaming.
