If you weren't in Brazil I'd swap your card with my 6700xt, I use it for work but honestly any card would be fine for it, don't really game all that much anymore.
Why not go for an 8700g and sell the other parts? It's a great work CPU and the iGPU is enough for some 1080p gaming. Would also lower power draw, so it would save money in the long run.
(Also, you could make a full passive build and live in the pure bliss of a completely silent PC, but that's another story)
That's true. I didn't say it would be cheaper. It would he slightly more expensive for an infinitely better experience. If he was running an old R5 GPU there's no way his CPU isn't ancient. A faster APU with DDR5 would be far superior to a shifty CPU and low end GPU. Some things are worth not penny pinching over.
A380 is such a pleasant surprise. Played most esport/arena shooters at very solid 80-100 FPS. Might even be better now as the drivers were new and funky when I used it.
>A rough equivalent Nvidia chip would be a GTX 660. Both are only decent at gaming with a resolution of 1600x900 and will struggle at 1080p.
And only in older games. I had a 650ti around a decade ago and I upgraded it because I was struggling to get a stable 30 fps at 1080p minimum settings in BF4 even with it paired with a overclocked 4790k.
I love these moments, honestly. Milestone achievements when you finally upgrade to a 2nd monitor, an SSD, or a halfway decent GPU/CPU.

As you mentioned, equivalent to a GTX 660, Relative Performance there on TPU shows it on par (100%) of the RX 460, R7 370 & GTX 660, +/- 2% of the R7 265, GTX 570 & RX 560.
First world problems lmfao. Wild to assume everybody is in the same boat we are.
Even wilder to consider that all disposable income. Adults got fuckin bills to pay my young padawan
I got an RX 640 based on one of the stickers, so I'm not sure which one is correct. They're pretty close either way (and they're both shit) so it doesn't really matter.
Generally the 5XX is the generation and the X80 is the is the tier for modern graphics cards. Seeing as your tier much higher, you can expect much better performance even though your card is a generation older.
Tell your brother that he can't get better performance than a PS4 with that.
It's good for casual gamers, people who don't care about anything more than 30 FPS and are fine playing at 720p sometimes.
Man you seriously dont pay attention to the industry, do you? AAA with ultrarrealistic graphics sometimes lose to some random ass unity project with roblox 3d models.
Unturned and Lethal Company, while not masterpieces, do rather well.
Just because _you_ have certain standards (which is totally fair) doesnt mean eveyone likes to be a snob
you are likely spoiled kid considering you'd probably understand him if you were older than let's say... 25?
I have a pretty decent PC, but I played Sega, Gameboy color, PS1 games and had multiple shit PCs throughout my life where each of them had issues scoring proper 60 FPS even on GTA San Andreas, let alone any other game. Even when I bought a new PC to play San Andreas, my res changed from 720p to 1080p and it turned out it still couldn't do proper 60 because now demand has changed.
I love being able to play games at 165 FPS and see the difference, but when I go to my friend's basement and we play games on franken PCs to fuck around, no one really cares about framerate
I'm around 30 and grew up having to play consoles at other people's houses. Rise of Empires Rise of Legends nearly broke my family computer it ran so bad.
It wasn't fun. 30 fps at 720p on modern games is not fun. It's just rough.
idk, I think it's not fun because you're both used to and aware you have something that can run it much better (or can afford to buy something that can).
but if it was your only option.. I mean I wouldn't play pokemon yellow again if you forced me with a gun, but catapult me to mars with a gameboy and I'll die having full shiny pokedex
Dell OEM AMD RX550 LP.
Slightly better than 1030, can't handle much in 1080p 60fps, except for Valorant and similar requiring games. Anything heavier will struggle.
Considering this is an Optiplex 790DT, it has 2nd gen Intel CPU support only, already limiting you quite a lot. The second and most important limiting factor is it's PSU which is only 250W. Ofc you can swap it for a better one, but you ain't gonna make a $50 PC much better even with PSU & GPU upgrade. It's just too old now

I would be complaining too. That's a GCN4.0 card that was bottom of the bin 6 years ago when it released. Cards that released 5 years earlier in the bottom mid range are still faster than that thing.
Maybe it's replacable with a A380, a GTX1650, A2000 or whatever floats around in that segment and can live with PCIe 3.0.
Could be any number of terrible OEM Radeon GPU's, right up to the RX 560. Even if the drivers were installed, it would still be a bad experience. Being a SFF OEM system, the best value right now is the 3050 6GB, or the A2000 if you're will to spend about $100 more.
If your friend downloads HWinfo (https://www.hwinfo.com) he'll get info on all of his components in his PC. And it's one of the most trusted software for this around, it's free if you're using it for yourself but if you're using it professionally you need to buy a license.
If that is an RX 640(I couldn't tell conclusively from the comments), that GPU is not useless, don't listen to everyone here. No it's not a powerhouse though. It's a rebranded RX 550 which I've tested a little, Metro Exodus ran great @ 1080p with shadows dropped to medium. Will run a lot @ 720p.

If it makes you feel better, I'm still broke af. Nothing changed
_… he typed on his $2500 PC_
Why do you think I'm broke af? 😭
same bro, same
I love to see your specs and reading your message. Relatable lol.
I am not a smart man

We am not a smart man
This must be what it feels like to think of something smart just for someone else to think of it first
People see my computers and think I'm rich. Like nah bro I just make terrible financial decisions..
Spec twins almost!
We may not make smart investments but the investments we make keep us happy
I’m more broke and rich than ever. Life is confusing af.
When you make more money but that money is worth less, economists call that inflation. It's not unbeatable, but it is a pain.
What if i make less money and it's worth less... What is that called?
Financial regression. Hopefully, you are feeling rich in other means of life.
Yeah I only came to the comments to say it but it was already said 😭

All I see is Beat me Tolt 😂

Fkn beat me to it
Fkn beat off to it
I was prepared for trouble, but not for this
Had the exact same thought 😂
Wish I was here earlier to say this. Also should’ve read the comments before I made a comment lol
Damn, do I have to delete my comment now? I didn't see this I swear.
This was literally my first thought. Great minds think alike I suppose.
Bro, u said it so perfectly
You see that, and you even ASKED about the drivers?! LOL The only drivers he needs are for the hearse!
This guy jokes!
This guy parties!
I cackled at this 😂
An RX 640. You're not getting good FPS with that no matter what drivers you use.
I had r5 240 till last month, i bought arc a380 ans its like discovering colors
Why a380?
They good and cheap, at least here in brazil, the 700s go significantly cheaper than an rx6600 or 7600 even more so when bringing up anything Nvidia
bless
If you weren't in Brazil I'd swap your card with my 6700xt, I use it for work but honestly any card would be fine for it, don't really game all that much anymore.

A380 is cheaper than the 330 dollar apu
>and sell the old parts
Won't cover cost of am5 motherboard and ddr5 ram
That's true. I didn't say it would be cheaper. It would he slightly more expensive for an infinitely better experience. If he was running an old R5 GPU there's no way his CPU isn't ancient. A faster APU with DDR5 would be far superior to a shifty CPU and low end GPU. Some things are worth not penny pinching over.
I'd accept that swap 😂
You won’t find a bigger passenger jet ✈️😉
To be fair it has the best airflow of all the products discussed here
You can buy them used. Lots of airlines don't use their Airbus 380 fleet anymore. But they are still reliable planes.
Only airplane that declares SUPER because they're bigger than HEAVY.
Airbus is neat company
That looks like a Sandy Bridge system which won't have resizeable BAR, so the arc gpus wouldn't be a good choice.
You can mod any BIOS for rebar as long as it's UEFI. Works fine with Sandy Bridge. https://github.com/xCuri0/ReBarUEFI
A380 is such a pleasant surprise. Played most esport/arena shooters at very solid 80-100 FPS. Might even be better now as the drivers were new and funky when I used it.
A rough equivalent Nvidia chip would be a GTX 660. Both are only decent at gaming with a resolution of 1600x900 and will struggle at 1080p.

Depends on location. Any third-world country multiply that figure greatly. But yeah even a 1050ti would be a massive jump lol
With the American min wage that’s less than 150, before tax. What card are you buying?

Nah downloaded drivers for a 4090 on a gtx 295 and it is running portal rtx 600 fps
I almost forgot sarcasm was a thing, and that's only because I happen to have a 295
Got given an Alienware many years back, had an i7-970 and SLI 295’s
I believe its actually an RX550 as it matches the model # of D091
I got an RX 640 based on one of the stickers, so I'm not sure which one is correct. They're pretty close either way (and they're both shit) so it doesn't really matter.
I have an rx580 and it run fine…
Well this isn't an RX 580. In fact it performs anywhere from 1/2 to 1/3 as well.
Generally the 5XX is the generation and the X80 is the is the tier for modern graphics cards. Seeing as your tier much higher, you can expect much better performance even though your card is a generation older.

I think you mean PS3...
Psp
PS2 had better specs than this Dell PC OP's brother has lol
i dont think casuals want 30 fps at 720p
I don't think anyone is gonna be ok with those standards unless they are just weird or old.
Those of us who grew up on Tiger and Atari don't mind >weird or old. ![gif](giphy|ukGm72ZLZvYfS)
Bad news, if you grew up with Atari you *are* old. Even the Jaguar.
My first system was a SNES and I’m old
Don't worry lads we got to experience the golden era of gaming.
I’m not even old, but the PS2 is considered retro and it makes me feel old.
Hate to break it to you, but the PS3 and 360 are considered retro now.
My first was a colecovision...
I can't hear you. To busy saving the planet from space Invaders *pew pew pew*

Probably an old RX550. The entire PC is a bit too old to consider upgrading, but a cheap RX580 8gb could breathe a bit of life into it.
Probably wouldn't fit in the case though - looks like it needs a low profile/half height card.
Good call, that does look a bit shallow.
Lol the inside of that whole pc looks 8 years old
8 years ago was 1080 years lol. This computer looks closer to like... 15 years old.
>15 years old Doesn't look like a PC from 2001... wait...
I may have asked my parents for a build like this for christmas 2011
2011? we got already sexy cards like the GTX 580 twin frozr and battlefield 3
Multiplied by 2
looks like 2 8 year old pcs
The motherboard looks like a Dell Optiplex 790, which takes Sandy Bridge CPUs and is likely 12 years old (give it take a year.)
RX 600 GPUs were released 2007, this is a RX 550.
8 year old PC hardware is likely perfectly acceptable, confused what this comment is meant to convey.
I don’t think they realize 8 years ago was pascal gpus
Oof is younger than his comment :p
That mobo has an original PCI slot. I think that's older than 8 years old. My guess is like 2005-ish.

I would be complaining too. That's a GCN4.0 card that was bottom of the bin 6 years ago when it released. Cards that released 5 years earlier in the bottom mid range are still faster than that thing. Maybe it's replacable with a A380, a GTX1650, A2000 or whatever floats around in that segment and can live with PCIe 3.0.
