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.

Unnecessary to buy in 2020 unless you get a really good deal, this GPU was never a good competitor against others at the same price range but since there is something called geforce now these days, specs pretty much dont matter if you got yourself the deal.
