![]() ![]() My EVGA GT 1030(the low profile model with a tiny fan) does +176 on the core and +1,000 on the VRAM. I found this thread when searching for the availability of a BIOS for the GT 1030 with a power limit over 30 watts. I started messing around with the EVGA GT 1030 I have while I wait for my Kingpin 3090 to arrive. Therefore I wasn't trying to upsell when I referred to the sole GT 1030 advantage being price - back when the cryptomining craziness restarted this spring, I had, in fact, added the GT 1030 to the consideration matrix however, it did way too little to warrant serious consideration compared merely to the GTX 1050 Ti - I would have been better off standing pat with the GTX 550Ti I was running at the time - which I in fact did for a month. Also, aren't those same GT 1030s halved by comparison (not just in terms of bandwidth, but in terms of RAM loadouts)? Not to mention that some even short-shrift them by using DDR3 (as opposed to GDDR5)?Īnd in case you didn't notice, 67W is eight watts LESS than that 75W rating - hence my referring to the PSU in those same machines being a sore spot - even with a GT 1030. Thirty-seven watts is typically not going to be a PSU breaker, even at the low end, unless you are talking sub-200W PSUs - in which case that PSU needs upgrading - even with a GT 1030 in it. Unless you explicitly need a low-profile version, either will in fact do. ![]() The GTX 1050Ti power draw is twice that (a mere 67 watts at worst for a no-extra-power version - such as my MSI GT OC, or EVGA's GTX 1050Ti SSC). ![]()
