however, one and welcome to another video.

Now these days is not uncommon to see a range of tiny graphics cards, ideal for smaller peces like the opposite of mobile phones.

Adverbs of degree

Graphics cards started off small, then got bigger and then got smaller again not just size wise, but also in terms of power consumption, too.

These days of Duty X 10 80 can even be found in a fun sized package.

But one of the most interesting and smallest flagship cards to release was AM these radio on Our Nine Nano.

I'd like to thank a guy by the name of James on Instagram for packing my inbox with benchmark figures to share with you and for helping me out with this overall video, because getting hold of one of these has proven to be quite difficult.

And that's this thing's first problem in 2000 and 18.

Launching at $649 in August of 2015 are nine Nano.

Small size was the complete opposite of its mammoth price tag, based on the same Fiji GPU found in the companies are known Fury and Fury X, The Nano featured four and 96 string processes 256 texture units, four gigabytes of H B M or high bandwith memory.

Onda one gigahertz boost clock, which was variable and would dynamically adjust to maintain a sub 175 What power drawer.

Furthermore, the aforementioned high bandwith memory also demands less power than traditional do.

DDR five and is attached to the cards process er itself as opposed to the actual bald.

But let's get back to its modern day availability.

It's quite scarce on used markets, with the occasional fixed price options showing up every so often on eBay.

Your best bet is when one in an online auction where they can be had for a little less.

Its performance is comparable to in videos 9 80 or modern day GTX 10 60 or even our X 5 80 There am these tiny powerhouse will even outperform the latter in a lot of titles.

Some reviews from a couple of years ago say 14.

40 p was the sweet spot and made most sense from a price performance perspective.

So, luckily, today's benchmarks are 14 40 p based again, as I had help with this video.

The gameplay isn't representative of the card.

But the precise figures are in Graf format.

Firstly, let's look at fallout for the Nano is a bit out of the usual range of hardware we talk about here.

But as it now occupies a place in the hierarchy that's close to the popular 10 60 I thought that those of you shopping around in that price range may want to hear about it is it's not really spoken off these days on as you can see, it still has the power to tear through Triple eight titles.

The figures from Far Cry five also respectable, especially considering the cranked up settings.

I expect the reason you don't see many videos on it these days is because of its somewhat lack of availability.

So I'd have to say, if you see one going for around the price of a 10 60 or a little less than it may be worth your investment.

There are plenty of forums online at places like Reddit that discussed the advantages and disadvantages off such a card in 2000 and 18 and I'd advise reading as much info as you can on this little beast kingdom come Deliverance here looks to perform the worst of today's games, but this is a pretty demanding title that has seen some performance improvements, though even on my 10 70 system, I still get stutters at not only higher resolutions but higher settings at full HD as well.

It's always a good title to test, to push a variety of graphics cards to their limit.

Middle Earth Shadow of War, like a CD, will run a closer to 30 than 60 FBs at higher resolutions.

But the ultra settings in this game are very demanding.

And judging by these results, I'd say 10 80 p with the high settings should be enough to maintain a solid 60 f.

Just like with all the games demonstrated in today's video over what treasure would expect run like a dream and will do on a range of hardware.

But it's nice to see a solid average, even with a mixture of the higher in game settings.

It makes the performance look bad at first glance, but that 1% low of 87 hopefully reflects what should be a nice around experience.

It's not all that demanding, but it is very popular and well still put more of a strain on your system than some of the other games due to the use of the UN riel engine.

As I said before, the Nano is a bit more high end than stuff we usually cover, but to me, everything about it makes it fascinating.

And if it wasn't a scarce as it is, then it may be a much more considerable option for those of you shopping for 10 sixties or five eighties, though, if you do see one for a similar price and are working on building an I T.

X system, then it's still a very capable option.

Remember, though, that unlike opting for a new GPU, a used our nine Nano may now come with a rough mining past a cz well, and unless the seller is very honest, there's not always a way of knowing whether that's true or not.

As I said before, if you plan on buying the radio are nine.

Nana do a lot of research on them beforehand.

As for this video, though, I hope you guys have enjoyed it.

If you did leave a light on it down below, leave a dislike.

If you didn't subscribe to the channel if you haven't done so already.

I've got an absolute beast of a video tomorrow.

I hate too big it up like that, but I'm very, very excited about the product of its on its way here.

 So, um, hopefully I'll see you tomorrow or the next day in the next video.
