The old driver (version 327 or something similar) had problems after reinstalling Windows and the GPU wasn't working well with only 30-50% of usage. I'd reccomend to install the new 451.48 driver who worked for me. Overall it's a decent graphic card, you can still play Minecraft at 60fps on it

it is not bad for some one who uses it for work or anything like that but it is not that good for gaming, it does run a lot of games but the games of this generation just need more efficient GPUs. This GPU is not the worst and it can run a lot of good games but for games that were released in 2018 and above. This GPU just cant stand these games becuase it is getting old

When released, it was a good GPU but right now on 2020, it's pretty average. Not recommended for top games but for video rendering and overall work, it's alright. Games like Tekken 7 and Black Mesa remastered runs correctly on this GPU.

Medium at gaming, can play cs go at max 1080p, however, it cannot play any recent games. Comparable to a recent integrated GPU.

It works well with simpler titles, but is really behind with newer, and much more demanding games. It could still go 30 at low settings which is fine.

Came with my secondary hand laptop. I was able to stably overclock its core by 80MHz and memory clock by 200Mhz. Gotta say it performs as expected, not for triple A gaming, but for Minecraft and less graphical intensive games it's good enough. Blender also ran smoothly on this little gpu

 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.
