actually, wait it doesnt look like these 1050 ti or 1650 would fit

it needs a SINGLE slot, LOW profile video card

thats pretty limited, but there are still options

Rip, was just about to ask which you recommend

Cheapest upgrade card would be a Dell Radeon Hd 7570 on the used market

what games do you plan to run on it?

https://www.amazon.com/MSI-GT-1030-2G-LP/dp/B071L4VKF6/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=gt+1030&qid=1608186314&s=electronics&sr=1-1

This would be the fastest you can currently put in it, unless nvidia or amd comes out with something new in this size

To be honest.. I realized as soon as I bought it that what I wanted to do wasn't going to happen with this one; which was basically running things like Saints Row or Halo on it

Which saints row games

2 won't run good on anything XD

its a very bad port

Oh I'm aware

Which is a shame because 2 is arguably the best

Definitly

I loved everything that wasn't Gat out of Hell

The 7570 can scrap by in saints row 4 from my experience, 720 low settings, but i would definitly reccomend the GT 1030 for the newer ones

funnily enough the gt 1030 is cheaper new than it is used, so don't bother going used for the gt 1030 if you get it

Would the GT 1030 be able to run Saints Row 4: Re-elected specifically? I know with that one the graphics had better resolution than standard SR 4

And if so, is it safe to assume I could run the others?

what cpu are you running, some kind of i5/i7?

I _think_ i7, but I could be wrong

idk if this is the re-elected, but it runs a 1080p high settings! so unless re-elected is 100x more demanding you should be good

What I'd truly like to do is essentially port my Xbox data to PC. I got rid of Xbox because I hated the constant changing layouts and the move towards making Gamepass as the online subscription, but I played it since 2007. I'm now curious as to whether this same setup I'm contemplating with here (that apparently can run SR4) would run other games like Halo MCC. I doubt it, but I guess it's worth asking

🙂

I don't think xbox saves go to pc tho

Seems to run pretty darn good

And your pc would run it better than this since their cpu is weaker than yours

This two games are very well optimized, which is great for a gpu like this

I think they've made the cross platform transfer a thing.. Or at least have the PC run as if it were an Xbox

Maybe I'm not informed enough on it

I mean halo probably could have it, cause its by microsoft but idk about saints row

Heres how it does in more demanding games, starts games at 3:00 on the video

but it is a perfect match for saints row 4 and halo MCC for sure

Good news for me

So maybe I can upgrade it for its original purpose after all

Yep, even in somewhat modern triple a games it works in most of them, just gotta drop the res and settings

And for older games/ esports it does amazingly well
