Greate budget 1080P card

ASRock Challenger Arc A380 6GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 ITX Video Card A380 CLI 6G OC
ASRock Challenger Arc A380 6GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 ITX Video Card A380 CLI 6G OC

Pros: -Very cheap -Small form factor -Only one 8 pins PCIE connector requirement -Will deliver 50-58 FPS in Lord of the ring: Return to Moria on 1080p epic, no AMD FSR enabled but resizable bar enabled when paired with AMD 5600G. -Getting 300 FPS at League of legends on 1080p very high setting when paired with MAD 5600G. -Give me a stable 60FPS when wait for vertical syn using max setting at Guild Wars 2.

Cons: -I believe it will be underpowered in 1-2 years, but i didint buy this card to be future proof. -If you buy this, you need to stick to 1080P. This is not a 2k++ card.

Overall Review: -Looking for cheap card allowing to do some light gaming on 1080p? Thats the right one for you. -I believe it outputs 2-3X the power of a iGPU 5600G. I was gaming on that iGPU until the card arrived. -In my opinion, a 5600G CPU is not at all a bottleneck for this card, it would be the other way around. But who cares?

Intel Core i7-13700F Desktop Processor 16 cores (8 P-cores + 8 E-cores) 30MB Cache, up to 5.2 GHz - Box

Cons: -I dont have the total statistic for DOA for this board, but on 2 pieces, 50% was broken over arrival. Still a great board.

Overall Review: -I would recommend to anyone OK with troubleshooting.

It has died very early

Newegg shipping was fast and awesome as usual, but the USB hub didn't last long. 1 month, maybe less.
