It's wierd to think that in 20 years we will look back on the rtx 3090 in the same way :)

[straly]

Sick to see how far technology has come in that amount of time.

[Kheays]

Can’t wait to buy my future grandkids a 1tb vram gpu for their birthday to be yelled at bc they wanted the 4tb

[karan]

Future gen looking at RTX 30 series be like oh only 12gig vram at 500$

[MineMineMelon]

Just to be clear, the GPU he is holding is NOT an X800, it’s an HD 3450. The 3450 is a low end card from 2008 commonly found in prebuilt computers. Not sure why it was used in this video lol

[Crimson_Canadian]

Hearing this, it feels like a crime to get a card many times the performance for only half the price

[matt_sa]

Damn! Can't wait to get the new Half Life 2 game! the graphics would be so epic!

[TestAccount-vwce]

The fact that the RTX 4090 will be considered a low end card in the future is crazy

[kollectormairu]

Hey, can you please do a dream pc with all old stock parks from the time period 2004? That would make a sick video

[mixk]

It really does show how fast GPUs tend to age.
Greetings from a GeForce 9600GT user.

I used to have this for my PC. Now I'm using GTX 1660 Super OC.

[noahbuddy]

You miss inflation, 500$ back than was much money

I remember my grand father said a 1.5mb storage back then was like an engine of a tractor or a truck

The early mid 2000s were something, you build a best of a pc only to be outdated in 3-6 months, people who got 780ti before nvidia launched 900series a year early would know

[doctorno]

Mate of mine had a p.c shop and managed to hook me up with this gpu before launch in Australia.

Was an absolute beast back in the day 😆 I remember the latest doom throttling it back down to 60-70ish fps .

Still have the card in my parts box.

[danieln.]

But your GPU there looks like it's an HD 3450, not an X800XT

[arthurmesserschmidt]

I still use that one in my second PC lol. Was a beast at his time

[jacklamat]

Geefore fx150 ddr3 memory i remember ddr 3 in memory was total revolution for the graphic cards

[nordicheroxo]

I have that gpu, and its working great.

Keep in mind that this was more than enough to run the games at that time. Most PC gamers were playing either Halo CE, CounterStrike or WOW at the time.
Its fun to see over the years how the fans become bigger and bigger and eventually take over the entire card.
