I actually prefer this market. The high-end blinged-out-PC market is so saturated with competition and the recycling of older hardware to help out people who are less fortunate or a kids first PC is a more wholesome feeling IMO. People highly underestimate the potential of older hardware.

yea I am waiting on RAM for a PC with a I7 6700 and RTX 3050 which IK isnt an old GPU but the CPU platform is getting old. but it will be perfect for a kid who wants to do some E Sports minecraft and even higher end titles at lower settings.

Many of the older GPU's had goofy heat sinks and fans on them that were more ornamental than active coolers and that one looks pretty goofy. Also, there is something else to take into consideration when buying cheap PC's to refurbish or upgrade and re-sell and that's the location where you live. If you live in a fairly densely populated area or near a larger city then demand for such systems will be higher than if you live in a rural area. Case in point; When I lived in southern Illinois, the demand for systems like this was higher because I lived near a major university. I couldn't build them fast enough but since I've moved to middle Tennessee, I haven't sold a single computer and have been forced to gut most of the systems I had and sell them for parts on E-Bay. Now, if I was selling after-market pick up truck parts and accessories I could making a killing! So, location is everything in this business.

Where I live I barely sell anything. I managed to sell plantation seeds and far as I remember from last year nothing else and I list various items every month / week. I can't afford Ebay prices nor have time nor patience to deal with international shipping so I am only selling locally on selected websites when I can list for free. Would probably help to sell WW but at the moment I cannot be bothered to deal with weirdos and whatever else comes with social media. Too many bots and creeps out there ... Here is one example I keep listing My Little Pony items on one listing and this one "woman" keeps bothering me about it how she wants to buy stuff have these weird demands and stories she sends me pics of her collection etc but she never actually buys anything ... it's been months with here like this, I keep blocking her she keeps making new accounts. And some people from Ebay or Facebook tell me this is "normal" over there, there are plenty of kids or collectors who are mentally challenged and demand crazy stuff but never have money to actually make ANY deal. Often if you even gift someone with them only need to pay for shipping they don't have money for shipping and I have to pay the double shipping, penalties and other stuff. Also if I do this about 3 times I am legally charged to go to a court hearing which is too much money for something that is basically originally suppose to be free ... f-k all that ... I have too many legal problems in my family I don't need another load of the same on top of that ... It's really hard to sell or get a job and I am locked down in this place due to mentioned legal matters. I don't know how long I can live like this. I lost years and so much money already.

My friend had two motherboards, the exact same model. One would work with his new graphics card, but the other would not. The motherboards had a different version of the BIOS on them. We updated the non-working motherboard, and the graphics card worked with that card. The BIOS was the reason in that case.

In my experience of decades building PCs for others Gigabyte brand is right there with MSI, they are dirt cheap advertized to hell and back and pretty much useless, they either get patched out fast from commission or can't run jack or combination of both. They are always great on paper but when you run it a software or games it's trash. Sometimes adding a little bit more money for a alternative part can make all the huge differences. I kept telling people to add more money and buy something else but no, later they come back with "you were right, this pc is trash, I need you to get rid of it asap and build me another" wasting my time and losing other potential customers in the process ... I quit it years ago due to this and how the prices went up crazy due to datamining so as how parts failed fast from it too. "buy me this cheap used GPU and build me a PC" then one week later "hey yeah this PC doesn't work anymore I need a new one" and new stuff not much different, MSI especially have so much issues its crazy Im f- king done ... I think 1st time I had issues with a Gigabyte GPU was back in 2008, I played some game and at 1st it had frame drops but the next day basically fried. I couldnt refund it got a replacement card and sold that to someone then added more money to buy an ASUS GPU instead. Ever since then I avoided MSI and GB but people kept bringing back to it all the time since it was the cheapest on the market. But due to wasted time and money in a long run it wasn't cheapest solution but most expensive.

Skylake pffft you got a freaking Haswell, Xeon, or Ivy Bridge you should be good to go no joke. Actually you don't even need better than a, well the problem is again VRAM with nVidia which is what's making a GTX 770 2gb so worthless, frankly much of the stuff is fast enough to be useful but if it's nVidia it's pretty much useless at 1080p, better yet go with used RX 480 8gb. It's only a few percent slower than a 580. i7 3770k+RX 480 is literally more than enough to play most non-AAA games from today. You can play Rogue Trader and Pathfinder WotR for example. Games liek XCOM2 run like a dream on that. You only are really missing ultra Cyberpunk or ultra setting RDR2 or Watchdogs Legion or something.

"Way too much... perfect." Someone has been watching some VGG.

Dude. Ive been putting 1660tis and rx 580s in 2600k builds with 0 issues. This was a mono issue thats all.

It's such a sick design, my r9 290x looks just the same, love it for the looks.

The testbed in a box tucked in with a towel is so cute. 😃And yes the Logitech wireless keyboard is a must. I have one for my HTPC. I allso have the Microsoft one as a spare. 🙂

The possibility does exist that the PCI-e x 16 slot was faulty on the other board that you used? You're an excellent builder and very sincere. Indeed, it's important to let people know that the 2 GB card is very long in the tooth, with limited abilities. Moreover, the older Radeon cards always ran hot.

Nice video. This is the first time to see your test bench? How did you build the platform that your test computer is attached to? Do you have a video of the build process for it?

I like your test bench :D I've got a few old cards. I just put together a new rig for my laser engraver- got a good deal on a 12600kf/MB/16gb memory. It would not boot at first, it didn't like my old fury nano but it's a 2 slot card. Turns out only the last slot worked but I had to use a single slot card so I dusted off an old nvidia 8400 single slot card. It got me into the BIOS where I was able to switch from UEFI to CSM (guess these new boards don't like new cards in UEFI mode), after that my old Fury Nano worked perfectly in the first slot and all was well. Turns out my new secondary rig is much faster than my primary rig, but my primary rig is better for editing so I'm not switching up just yet. That old card saved me, I thought I was going to have to buy a new GPU or return everything. Those old cards have their uses! I've also got an old 5450, 950 and another equivalent ancient low end GPU - those things are handy sometimes!

1080 is all you need. Attach a 4k Gamer Pro to get 4k. Install Lossless Scaling for frame generation. Tomb Raider in this video was 30fps. If you used Lossless Scaling frame generation it would've been 60fps. The truth is GPUs don't matter anymore when upscalers exists.

I do the same kinda thing. Doing a good deed by the Earth and by your less financially-endowed neighbors, and having fun while doing it. It's a fun hobby!

I repair older card just by cooking them in the oven cause often they were not care and due to temps and heat stress bga balls under gpu or ram chip is not connected in era of lead free solder so i add some flux and bake them and they work again, i repair that many older cards. where it would not be ecconomic just to make reballing or reflow in professional service.

Local deals in my area suck. Lots of scams and people who are high trying to sell old junk for overinflated prices. You use some old workstation MB for a test bench, not a Strix MB, lol. Your test rig is worth more than my gaming PC. It is possible that a mining BIOS might cause a no display with some hardware but work fine with other hardware. I would flash the VBIOS just to be sure. You don't want to sell a working PC that could potentially break with the next GPU or chipset driver update. I like how they basically just stuck a Zalman Flower cooler on this GPU and then put a shroud over it. This is like some late '00s cooling setup. I recently bought an absolutely filthy 2060 for $120. After refurb, it is worth about $170, which just illustrates how you can make money with a little elbow grease. I suppose if you're only asking $160 for it, a 2GB GPU is fine. But you're really stretching to call it an eSports gaming PC.

What testbench "case" is that? Honestly would come in handy for me, i could nail it on the wall to save some space.

I had a 960 throw a VGA light in my main pc when using displayport, but then windows loaded and the monitor turned on and I was at the login screen, and the VGA light still on... What I needed to do to get the POST to show up was update the gpu's displayport firmware, and it worked fine afterwards

Why GPU works in one PC and not in another - bios compatibility. Many office machines support limited number of GPUs, support older cards, not newer that were released after the bios on that office PC and so on.

Around that time of cpu not all motherboards and gpus were fully uefi compatable. This was especially the case with dells and amd gpus

I've got a really nice Dell 490 that has Lubuntu on it and a few weeks ago its video output failed. Anyhow, no problems, just put in another recommended video card. That video card worked on another PC, as did 2 others, but all 3 failed to give video output on 490 so clearly PCIe buses etc do sometimes fail. Perhaps one day I'll try to fault find it.

what a pretty GPU cooler o.0 !!

Was supposed to get my zotac 4070 today but newegg just said my package was in a train derailment...who knows when ill get my card now...ill stay on them , if lost it then they better send another..

that cooler is fine. but that shroud must go. thats why its so damn hot

flipping just the cpu + ram might be profitable on some of those old desktops if they're cheap enough or you can get your work to give them to you.

Make sure everything goes in properly, is secured nice and tight, etc. I had something kind of similar happen with my current rig when I was putting a card I knew already worked in another rig into it. Turned out the CPU pins weren't making a proper connection due to not quite tightening my heatsink down far enough one one side. Took just a 1/3 to 1/4 turn further to do the job. So, I suspect that is what is up, but I could be wrong of course.

try multiple benchmarks and check for memory errors in hwinfo. also your card is pretty hot on the test bench. in a closed case the card may to cool down

Try this method could have been MB or something in that system was shutting that GPU not others If your motherboard has integrated graphics you test to see if the system can operate on that and see if the graphics card is detected. Then try uninstalling the GPU from the device manager. Then manually download and install the relevant driver for the GPU. Maybe you should also try booting in Safe Mode to make sure there isn't something in the background causing the crashes. Also, if power outages are common for you, it might be worth buying UPS. Even a low capacity one should be able to give you some level of surge protection while giving you time to save your work before shutting down.

🙂 its because its a radeon card, they don't have the same compatibility friendly technologies that invidia uses, the basic driver thats baked into the board simply is not compatible with alot of motherboards and alot of monitors tvs projectors, its trademarked by invidia and radeon has never been able to replicate it exactly. the best compatible friendly radeon cards are the ones that are made specifically for DELL or HP, they look plain and are red circuit boards, also the Workstation models should be more compatible friendly as well.

Did you replace this gpu with a more power efficient card? R9 cards were not known for sipping electricity, and im going to assume the psu in the computer this came out of was either not powerful enough or on its way out.

Check PEG settings in BIOS.

Is it junk, well that depends on if it works or if you can get it to work. If it does work, then it will largely be fit for purpose in the era it was launched in. A card launched in 2015 will play 2015 game launches just fine, but may struggle in later games due to increasing graphic demands. If the card doesn't work, then you have to ask yourself if its value is worth more or less than the time / money spent repairing it.

Some of the DELL or HP towers will not like newer GPU's for some reason. I tried replacing a NV 750 with a NV1050 Ti and somehow the BIOS doesn't like it for some reason. Think it was the UEFI compatibility in the 10 series that takes a SH**. There are some updated BIOS's out there and some user-made BIOS's to make use of the older Pre-Fab PC's but I just literally gave up and not bother with too much hassle of trying to find the right one that will work

If the graphics card is a pre built card made specifically for Lenovo, HP, Dell. That card will only work with the pre built brand it was made for. Gateway/Acer, Gigabyte, MSI, ASUS all use whats called open source Vbios non secure boot coding. So the pre built brands will work on any of those boards, but the big 3 pre built brands will not be interchangeable. That R7 270~290 are old school graphics cards that were used on Dell AlienWare R2's, and were an expensive upgrade for DEll XPS. Which means it probably has a Dell secure Boot Vbios.

Good day sir

I've only ever owned AMD cards and the key to keeping them cool is to undervolt. They always come over volted out of the box and the AMD software makes it really easy to undervolt them. You can also get a little bit of an overclock too.

Yeah I had these thoughts of hoarding obsolete technology but it's just not worth it dude. Literally costs more in electricity than what you earn but you believe whatever you want. It's actually more wasteful to keep using old technology than to just trash it and let it die.

A while back a buddy of mine asked for help since his new gpu wasn't working in his rig, ended up that his motherboard needed a bios update

That keyboard and mouse combo was only in my toolkit, I thought.

60 to 70c is a perfectly safe temperature on a gpu it’s when it 80c to 90c that you will see performance losses.

I got the exact same version of that r9 270 from an old hp machine and unfortunetly, whenever I install any of its amd drivers, the screen goes black. any suggestions for what I could do?
