That would be really interesting. Modern CPUs have become much faster, but one could assume that games old enough to support software rendering won't take make use of modern instructions like SSE4 or AVX, and most likely also not of multiple cores.

@@TotallySearch Back before '96 GPUs didn't even exist yet, except maybe in $100,000 SGI workstations, you had to render 3D on your CPU. Even then, it took a while(maybe '06 or so? details are kinda sketchy due to senility) before pretty much everyone had a GPU. In '96 you had to actually have a separate PPU(Picture Processing Unit, more commonly known as a graphics card back then, they don't make 'em anymore, it rendered 2D graphics) and GPU, whereas these days your GPU has a PPU built in. You had to plug your PPU's VGA out into the GPU's VGA in, then plug the VGA out on the GPU to your monitor to get the 3D output of the GPU overlaid onto the 2D out of the PPU. I suppose you could consider the 2 separate cards as the first 2 slot graphics cards.

OpenGL can use the CPU to execute calls unsupported by the GPU, so "supports OpenGL" can get muddy in some instances. The Mesa library for Linux contains OpenGL and Vulkan software renderers with DX12 emulation. Crysis was demonstrated to run on a Threadripper 3990X a few years ago, though performance was below what's generally considered playable (but not that far off from when "But can it run Crysis?" was an earnest question). The biggest problem with software rendering vs. cruddy video cards is probably optimization. You'd be pitting what exists for compatibility or research purposes against a mature driver set aimed at gaming. Even as obsolete as the GT 710 is, at one point its platform (or one very close to it) was optimized for gaming. Software renderers haven't been mainstream since the late-90s. Half-Life, Thief: The Dark Project, and Unreal are among the last games I recall supporting software rendering.

As soon as I saw 4K on a low end card, I knew it was gonna be a very expected result.

Yep. The GT-710 is basically a display adapter at this point. It will provide negligible or even negative improvement in performance over Skylake (Intel 6th Gen Core), and against a more powerful iGPU such as the Vega 8, or the Intel Equivalent, it will fall short by a noticeable margin. The only benefit it has is 4K60 video since many Mobos use only HDMI 1.4. If you want any benefit, get a GT-1030 or a used RX-460 or an equivalent.

Strangely, some people seem to think that so called "4K" screen resolutions are a new phenomenon. Playback of modern, highly compressed 4K video formats or playing DX12 3D games at 4K is a relatively recent development for typical home users, but that's not the same as being able to output a "4K" resolution at a reasonable refresh rate. That's been possible for a long time.

I just got the same fanless Asus card but as a GT 730 around the time this video posted, I'm planning on putting it in an old Optiplex 780 with a Core 2 Duo E8400 I just got for free and loading up a WinXP "retro" machine. I was glad to see HL2:Lost Coast in this test as that's pretty much the higher end of what I'll be running but at much lower resolution (got a free 4:3 LCD as well). The 7XX cards are the latest officially supported by NV drivers and I think these will work out well for cheap nostalgia builds.

I am happy with my gddr5 2GB version, with an added fan as a fan in a pci slot, but not in the pci slot, only mounted to a cover panel below the GPU.
