Use case for an old GPU

[Sanedish]

I have an old GTX 650 Ti Boost I got cheap on eBay, now what can I do with it? :(.

You can collect or use it. Currently I am collecting OLD GPUS, defective or not. And I will place it on a glass cabinet when I get one someday. I have a GT 710 and a GTX 760 currently and I am eyeing some Titan X. But if you're gonna use it, its just as powerful as a GTX 1030.

Highly doubt it being on the level of an non existent GPU.

But yes, it's around 30% better then a GT 1030 and essentially a GTX 750 Ti on crack, i already know how it performs :).

Put it on display. It's what I do with my old GPUs. Either that or make a legacy gaming rig.

Keep it for troubleshooting. If you ever have problems with your video output, you can use the old one to rule out/confirm a GPU defect.
