What cpu to use with a zotac gt 730 2gb ddr5

[why you look see boring?]

going with a gt 730 2gb ddr5 gpu but dont know what cpu is the best to pair with it, yall got any suggestion?

Are you a time traveler from 2014?

The best CPU for that card is whatever cheap CPU you already have. It was low end in 2014, and now it's basically retro.

Can it game? Yeah! It can game. You can enjoy yourself a nice Xbox 360 level experience in lots of games. Play undemanding indies and older titles on lower settings. You can try to play newer demanding games, but you're probably looking at low settings, 720p or even 480p, and how enjoyable that will be will depend on how well you tolerate framerates in the 20s or the teens.

Of course I know you're attempting to meme here, but in the off chance you're not; There you go.

Short answer: Yes
Long answer: Basicly every modern CPU will outperform this GPU's requirements :D

the best cpu you can afford for whatever board you are using

the dedicated gpu has its own vram, does not need to match the system ram

^This
Modern integrated GPUs are about as fast if not even faster, + they have modern software support ,especially anything Intel UHD/ Vega 3, 8, 10, 11.
If you are gonna pair that GT 730 with a 10th gen intel CPU or newer with integrated UHD graphics might as well use integrated graphics at that point.

the gt 730 was nvidias catch all for gpu cores that perform like crap
from 7xx and later gens, that all perform about the same
2-4g ddr3-ddr5-ddr5x depending on the core thats used

even when it was new, it was way below the 'gaming' gpu standard

anyway, any cpu/mobo combo that has a pci-e x16 slot for the gpu will work with it

Most newer games demand 4-8gb VRAM, you're asking the wrong question.
If you're not building a Gamer PC for demanding games, get a laptop, cheaper, less headache, no messing around, all fine for non-techies.

If you get a modern intel CPU, even a lowish end one, the onboard graphics would probably outperform the gpu.
You will be very limited in the games you can play with a gt 730. You could still play some, but with very low settings. If you insist on using it, an option could be to use a fairly old machine that is unused from a decade or so ago. Maybe an old business machine with an i7-3770 in it for example.

My recommendation is not using it for games at all.

You don't use a GT 730 in the modern era unless you're an office worker looking to hook up extra monitors or aiming to build a periodically correct legacy system. There are no other justifications.

Most new games list minimum specs. along the lines of a 960, which is roughly equivalent to a 1050 ti. We're also starting to look at games that require the equivalent of a 1060 minimum, and starfield even lists a 1070 ti. Even Palworld, which is one of the lowest spec. games released this year wants a GTX 1050. The integrated Radeon 760m graphics included with an 8600G performs on the level of a 960 or a 1050 ti. Even Genshin Impact, which was a low spec. game smart phone game when it was released four years ago wants at lest a GT 1030.

The oldest and weakest discrete G.P.U. you should even consider using is an RX 580. It was high enough on A.M.D's. stack to have staying power over the years and is roughly equivalent to the 1060 and falls less than 10% short of the RX 6500 in terms of performance. Even the RX 580 is nearing the end of its rope though with Starfield wanting a 1070 ti.

If you're forced to use a low profile singe slot G.P.U. because of space constraints, the best option is the Arc A310[www.amazon.com], and with a T.D.P. of just 75 watts it can be powered from the slot.

Even from the perspective of being too poor to afford a better discrete graphics card, the Intel U.H.D 620. graphics used with downcut 8th gen core i series u processors outperform the GT 730, by 23%[technical.city]. Odds are as such that using a 710 will downgrade any modern system by virtue of robbing the igpu. Plus going by new prices, the 730 and the 1030 cost about the same. Not that I'd endorse using a 1030 either. If you can't afford even an RX 580, then you simply don't buy a discrete G.P.U.

What do you do instead then?

You build yourself an AM4 system based on the 4600g[www.amazon.com] ($90) and skip the graphics card.

Asrock B450m-HDV[www.amazon.com] $60.
Silicon Power DDR4 RAM[http//Silicon+Power+DDR4+RAM] $30
EVGA 500 W1 P.S.U.[www.amazon.com] $50
Masterbox Q300L Case: $40[www.amazon.com]
Teamgroup S.S.D. $17[www.amazon.com].
No Graphics Card: Free as Ski.[ski.ihoc.net]


Altogether that's $287. If all you need is the R.A.M., the Motherboard and the processor because you are able to reuse all of the other components stuff from the present computer, then you are only spending $180, which is only about $60 more than a 5600gt.

If you still want us to recommend you a processor for a GT 730, then you're going to have to tell us more about what dinosaur of a computer you're using.

i compared the specs of your gpu with my 630m and they have the same specs. the 730 is a bit faster, that is all. now: i do not know what cpu you have. if i knew that, i would tell you wether to upgrade your cpu or your gpu. if your cpu is powerful enough, you do not need to upgrade it. my gt 630m also have 2 gigabytes of ram.

The GT730 is much faster than the GT630M because it has twice as many texture mapping units and output rendering units, clocks ≈50% faster, and has a GB more VRAM. The memory bandwidth is slightly slower, but at this performance it won't have much of a difference.

[nepisman]

It depends on your motherboard (Intel or AMD), if you only want a CPU for a minimum price I can recommend for example Ryzen 3600, 4100, 4500 or Intel 10100, 12100F.

[_I_]

not sure where you get your 630m data, but gt 730 is a gen newer and more power = better performance

Try Dual Core CPU

[🍕🍟🍔 🍕🍟🍔]

intel® Xeon® Platinum 8580 its a very budget friendly cpu its only 10k $















as for a real answer anything midrange to anything i have no idea what your budget is so idk

[r.linder]

Literally any of the 5000 series AMD APUs have better integrated graphics than the GT 730's performance, their iGP performance is around a GT 1030 at least.

The newer iGPs on AM5 are even faster, close to that of a GTX 1050 Ti, so integrated graphics replacements like the GT series are basically obsolete at this point and a waste of silicon to produce when integrated graphics has improved so much.
