The GT 1030

Posted (edited)

So basically I'm wondering if this GT 1030 GPU I just purchased from EVGA is going to put up with some lower quality, less graphically enhanced games. The games I am wanting and hoping to run (hopefully all at 30fps or a bit higher) would be as follows: Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Rust, H1Z1, PUBG, and maybe even Fortnite.

It's a low end card, but gets good value imo. Should run rust on medium.

The GT1030 is actually pretty bad ass. 

If it was a little cheaper it would even be insane value. I mean, for the games you mentioned it's perfect. Plus it only has 30watts power consumption and runs completely passively cooled and is tiny af. 

I'd honestly get one myself for a e-sports machine.

Well the GT 1030 is a pretty bad ass low end graphics card, BUT why did you bought a GT 1030 fanless version.

If you want to overclock it it goes over 100C degrees. Always buy graphics cards with fans, so you have better performance and more overclocking options.

Mine does have a fan I just couldn't find the correct picture to put there so I went with the fanless picture, here is the correct one...

well if you have the fan version, ENJOY YOUR GAMING LIFE!!!!xD

But if you want more POWERRRR and more FPS overclock it.

Thank you so much for the help, but how would I go about doing so? Nvidia control panel or something? Or would a video tutorial work better for an explanation?
