I actually have another Nvidia GeForce GT 1030 (the one with passive cooling) and it works great. If you aren't planning on heavy gaming, just grab the cheapest one you can find—bonus points if it's passive—but make sure it's the GDDR5 version.
Why don't you try moving that AMD Radeon RX 460 to a different slot just to test it out?
Lines are showing up on the screen and things are stuttering a bit. Using the Intel HD Graphics.
I'll give moving the card a shot.
Any other graphics cards you guys would recommend?
Thanks.
Best,
Hey everyone.
So, I've got this Radeon RX 460 in my rig. While I was using it, the screen just went pitch black—no signal at all. I'm pretty sure the card finally kicked the bucket. Once I pulled the GPU out, the integrated graphics on the motherboard started working fine, so it’s looking like the card is definitely the culprit.
Does anyone know if there's any chance the actual PCIe slot on the motherboard is busted? I'm really hoping it's not that, because I'd rather not drop cash on a new card if the slot itself is the problem. Or is that basically impossible?
Also, I've been browsing for replacements and the ZOTAC Nvidia GeForce GT1030 with 2 GB GDDR5 caught my eye.
Has anyone actually used this card? Would it be a decent move for me? My PC is mostly just a media station for browsing the web, YouTube, and streaming movies. Honestly, the current integrated graphics aren't cutting it nearly as well as my old RX 460 did.
Thanks for the help, guys.

Hey, I could really use some help here. Can someone help me rank these processors by raw power and generation? Like, which ones are older and which ones are newer:
1) Pentium (R) Dual - Core E 5700 3.00 Ghz
2) Intel Core 2 duo E7300 2
3) Intel Core 2 duo E7500
4) AMD Athlon 64 X2 5200
5) AMD Athlon ii X2 B22 2
6) Intel Pentium Dual-Core E2220 2 x 2.4 GHz 7
7) Intel Pentium Dual-Core G620 2 x 2.6
I've been scrolling through some Craigslist ads for used PCs that have these chips inside. Honestly, all I need the machine for is browsing the web. My main priority is making sure YouTube doesn't lag out on me while I'm watching stuff.
Thanks in advance for the help!
