Is the GT 1030 good compared to other low-end GPUs and iGPUs?
I have a Gigabyte GT 1030 GDDR5 2GB OC GPU in my system. Is it still good?

I thought I would start a new discussion since I am bored.

most, yes

only exception is the vega 11 igpu, which is slightly stronger in some tasks
https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-GT-1030-vs-AMD-RX-Vega-11-Ryzen-iGPU/m283726vsm401440

the mobile 1030 will be weaker, but still stronger than mobile igpus

as for other dedicated gpus, the 1030 is the weakest of the current lineup

similar performance to nvidia gt940, 750 (non ti), 660, 570, 480, gtx 295
and amd rx 550, r7 360, hd 7770, hd 6850, hd 5850

but with newer (more) command sets

it is the worst of them all

Unbelievably how low end this gpu is today. its on ranking 195 which means there are 194 different faster gpus in theory.

Get the GTX 1650, It is the best low profile GPU.

It's generally behind a GTX750ti so it would fall behind the R7 260x as well.

Imho it was never good. What specifically are you wanting to know that can't be answered by a google/youtube search?

Vega 8 > GT1030
So Nope
My friend have mobile version of it MX130 and he was jealous that l have more fps and cheaper laptop

Performance

Vega 8
Have advantages

0.07 TFLOPS higher floating-point performance
1.13 TFLOPSvs 1.059 TFLOPS

2.1 GTexels/s higher texture rate
35.2 GTexels/svs33.1 GTexels/s

128 more shading units
512vs384

8 more texture mapping units (TMUs)
32vs24

GT 1030

13.26 GPixel/s higher pixel rate
22.06 GPixel/svs8.8 GPixel/s

279MHz faster GPU turbo speed
1379MHzvs1100MHz

8 more render output units (ROPs)
16vs8


Features

Vega 8

newer version of OpenCL

2 vs 1.2

GT 1030

...

Vega 8 have 3140million more transistors

but

GT 1030 have 45W lower TDP

In my opinion, people underestimate my GPU too much. I have been able to run War Thunder at 1080p high 40 - 50 FPS.

Nice propaganda against AMD iGPUs!

I have little lower but this is because Vega 8 is weaker against higher resolutions

Even 4K is feeling like 5-10 fps in desktop

Overall, I would give the GT 1030 an 8/10.

At least you can use GT 1030 to run Tensorflow on for Deep Learning without headaches, and OpenGL Games and Emulation all on Windows without having to switch OS.
