Good games for GT 1030 2GB

[SgtHorton]

Can someone recommend me some newer good games that will run on very weak GPU that is Geforce GT 1030 ?

New games. Just check for anything that requires less than a 950 and you'll be okay with reduced graphics settings.

Speaking as a fellow GT 1030 2gb.

Probably any game since 2016
Will run just fine
Mirror’s Edge Catalyst

Is there a particular reason why you are gunning for "newer" good games with a GT 1030?
What games have you knocked out so far with the card that you've enjoyed?

Personally I would stick to games released around the same fidelity as Borderlands 2 maybe, but maybe not much further than that. That game is hardly new but that depends on what your definition of "newer" games is.

Although I might also be cutting the GT 1030 a bit short, I'm mostly thinking about games where you can play at 1080p comfortably.

EDIT: If you are a fan of racing games, you could try Forza Horizon 5. it will probably run at the lower presets:

I already played most older games (had good card but sold it), but i just dont know much about newer lesser known indie or 2d games.

What about Core Keeper?
It's getting rapidly more popular, but otherwise seems to fit your mention:

There is a thread discussing performance issues on a GT 740M but surely the GT 1030 might be able to pull it off a bit better:

games asking for a gtx 480 or gtx 750 or 950 will work on this if you have the gt 1030 DDR5 variant.

I have a gt 1030 and use lossless scaling to render the games in 720P and scale it up to 1080P , it's often get me up to 10 to 25 more fps in a lot's of games compared to playing in native 1080P.

some older game perhaps. judge from my library i have a lot of older game (the oldest game i have rn is deus ex and damn i have crippling addiction playing it) because i also have weaker gpu

if you want an older game with unique graphics (without pale and brown filtered graphics) there's dishonored 1, bioshock infinite etc (as those game are just using baked lighting, a smart move ngl and their graphics is more cartoony).

dishonored example is more oily, reflecting victorian era art with some vibe of orwellian. same goes to bioshock infinite

there's probably more game like that

tldr: i didn't read your description but it still hold up i swear

if you like team based pvp shooter the gt 1030 can run Palandins without even breaking a sweat.
