i have owned this thing for pretty long now and it must be one of the weakest gpu's that ever existed, even tho the release price was $199, i would not pay more than 2 dollars for it

This GPU is unbelievably cheap and has performance beyond my expectations, I got it for $12 and it runs minecraft 1.17 with realistic shaders and textures at 30 fps (modified minecraft bedrock from Opticraft)


Average

Older Mid Range gaming card. Has Driver Support for Windows 10. Usable for office work and browsing. The card works great with games from it's era, but shouldn't be used for modern titles. You can find the card for around 10$ used.

 Frequently Asked Questions

 Best User Rated

Why does UserBenchmark have a bad reputation on reddit?
Marketers operate thousands of reddit accounts. Our benchmarks expose their spiel so they attack our reputation.
Why don’t PC brands endorse UserBenchmark?
Brands make boatloads on flagships like the 4090 and 14900KS. We help users get similar real-world performance for less money.
Why don’t youtubers promote UserBenchmark?
We don't pay youtubers, so they don't praise us. Moreover, our data obstructs youtubers who promote overpriced or inferior products.
Why does UserBenchmark have negative trustpilot reviews?
The 200+ trustpilot reviews are mostly written by virgin marketing accounts. Real users don't give a monkey's about big brands.
Why is UserBenchmark popular with users?
Instead of pursuing brands for sponsorship, we've spent 13 years publishing real-world data for users.
