Not cost effective since you can't necessarily pirate and have to pay for online. A piece of shit laptop is a better investment for gaming than a current gen console, if you're okay with shit settings and missing out on the latest games.
I would also still just recommend saving until your budget is larger too, though.

It's not too great now, but it was a great 1080p60 card in its era, you just assume it wasn't because you reached adulthood post-COVID and assume that older games ran as poorly as current games do.

It's the fans, not the finstack. You can jerryrig standard 120mm fans to a GPU heatsink and it will absolutely destroy the stock solution. Apparently its still cheaper to make the heatsink larger than put anything more expensive than dollar store 90mms.

I don't get the advent of flashy RGBs or see-through cases. I like lights under the keyboard, but I prefer it as a soft and simple solid color. I guess a see-through case let's you see if something needs to be fixed easier, but I still think older cases look better.

Last time I got a GPU it had RGB lighting on it and the only way to turn it off was to install the manufacturer's bloatware. I opened it up and physically unplugged the light instead. I hate RGB lighting so much.
Anonymous No.723202190 >>723202474

I wouldn't be too enthusiastic about running your GPU fanless as it will require alot of case intake fans to keep cool at which point keeping the fans on but at a silent RPM is just better in every way. The only positive about long term zero rpm is minimizing airflow and thus dust accumulation within the GPU, but again case airflow must be compensated for which results in more dust in the case itself. That IS easier to clean though.

My GPU had the lighting on a permanent rainbow unless I installed MSI's motherboard bloatware to turn it off. That wasn't enough as it needed a separate cable coming out of the GPU into the motherboard so I could order the thing off.
