How To Make An RTX 3080 Ti Slower Than A GT 710

Hey there we go the old box wedge trick works like a treat yet again now the first step is to see if we can just get a signal out of this 3080 ti through the pci slot I mean that's already promising no signal detected yeah i don't think we're getting a signal out here after this I spent about two hours trying to get any kind of combination to output a signal using this pci slot I tried different graphics cards I tried various settings in the bios but nothing would work finally I changed over to a different motherboard that I happen to have lying around that also had a pci slot and well this is what happened

Okay now we've got an entirely different system plugged in here it's actually quite promising because in the bios by default it has pci as being the primary graphics adapter slot on the motherboard um so hopefully that means that it works okay let's see now again it's powering up in the exact same way that it did with the previous motherboard no way we've got a video out holy sh i was getting ready to make a i'm a loser and my experiments always fail videos so this is this is exciting I'm surprised at how plug and play this has been like I literally just plugged it in and it's it's worked installed the drivers and everything seems fine we're actually hitting a hundred percent utilization on the 389 with the core frequency it's jumped all the way up to 1965 megahertz

Okay let's let's go for a bit of a drive see if it gets better oh it doesn't no it's it's really not gotten any better here I love that the actual gpu utilizations cracked but I guess that's just because the interface has been saturated I guess it's like a hundred percent interface utilization oh yeah this is this is how you want a game with your brand new thousand two hundred dollar gpu oh that is that is horrendous that is definitely worse than a gt710 which is crazy I didn't think that that was possible even with oof even with any bottleneck we just dipped below double digits there but with that let's do some benchmarks and see in actual raw performance uh how it compares with the gt710 damn that's not even just within the margin of error and bigger than the average differences is the difference with the one percent lows and you really can feel how much more stuttery it is with the 3080 ti and the pci slot

But with that let's try some big boy games like battlefield 5 and cyberpunk oh yes this is how you really should experience battlefield 5. ah this is the business 1080p low settings and we're hitting 3 fps with the 3080ti okay here we are we've got some combat coming there's there's a little bit of input lag I'd say this is this is the worst gaming experience i've ever seen on a system before this is like oh but we're gonna we're gonna get a kill i think i think he's died okay dope look at that we got a kill handgun should i just stab him ow what's happening oh it's worked okay we gonna oh no i'm so hurt as well oh yeah I don't think it's running any better at 720p if anything is worse wow we're fluctuating between like two and four frames per second I think if anything 720p is running worse than 1080p wow of course half-life 2 somehow manages to run super well we're on low settings here but we are running at 1080p and yeah we're getting like above 100 frames per second hey would you look at that we're getting about 40 frames per second here which means we're actually getting better gaming performance than chewie gave us uh which tells you a lot about celerons but um you know this is a 3080 ti so i guess it shouldn't be massively surprising

Okay so this is what 133 megabits of gaming performance looks like cyberpunk has taken three attempts to launch but now it finally seems to be okay wait I can't really tell is this any different to how cyberpunk normally runs

WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enthe gameplay footage that you're looking at right now is gta 5 at 1080p low settings running on an rtx 3080 ti which as you can see is working real hard now fun fact that gaming performance is actually worse than what you'd get from a gt-710 and it's all because of this little adapter that i can only imagine was developed by satan see what it does is it takes the pcie connectors that we all know and love and adapts it to a pci slot an interface that hasn't been sexy to use for graphics cards in around 20 years so what i'm going to do in today's video is i'm going to show you how i got this all running and then we're going to compare the rtx 3080 ti to a gt710 and then finally we're going to see how big boy games like battlefield 5 and cyberpunk handle the bottleneck from hell now first things first we need to find a system to do all these tests with which is actually not that easy to do considering that pci hasn't been around for a while so you don't really get modern motherboards with this connector luckily recently i bought this system from ebay which very conveniently has a pci connector on it now the system itself is already gonna be a massive bottleneck so we're gonna have to do some control tests first to see kind of what performance we get from it with like a gt710 and with this graphics card in a pcie slot on the motherboard and then we're gonna raise the stakes a bit with the gt710 we have a lofty baseline here with gta 5 1080p low settings averaging about 22 frames per second with a one percent low of about 15 frames per second now that we have our baseline reading i'm going to use the rtx 380 ti in the pcie slot to see what it performs like with just the general terrible system before also adding the massive interface bottleneck into the equation unfortunately i'm going to have to remove the system from the case because the adapter kind of stands off and stuff and that does mean that i'm going to have to ruin the immaculate cable management in there but you know you got to do what you got to do so give me a second let me quickly do that wow that already looks stupid and we haven't even gotten to the stupid bit of the video yet but with that let's see how it runs in this system okay that's a pretty big jump over our baseline but it's still very slow for an rtx 3080ti but let's let's take it a bit further okay the time has finally come let's introduce satan's adapter i'm gonna pull that out oh this already feels very precarious there we go yeah that's not gonna hold let me let's try this hey there we go the old box wedge trick works like a treat yet again now the first step is to see if we can just get a signal out of this 3080 ti through the pci slot i mean that's already promising no signal detected yeah i don't think we're getting a signal out here after this i spent about two hours trying to get any kind of combination to output a signal using this pci slot i tried different graphics cards i tried various settings in the bios but nothing would work finally i changed over to a different motherboard that i happen to have lying around that also had a pci slot and and well this is what happened okay now we've got an entirely different system plugged in here it's actually quite promising because in the bios by default it has pci as being the primary graphics adapter slot on the motherboard um so hopefully that means that it works okay let's see now again it's powering up in the exact same way that it did with the previous motherboard no way we've got a video out holy sh i was getting ready to make a i'm a loser and my experiments always fail videos so this is this is exciting i'm surprised at how plug and play this has been like i literally just plugged it in and it's it's worked installed the drivers and everything seems fine we're actually hitting a hundred percent utilization on the 389 with the core frequency it's jumped all the way up to 1965 megahertz okay let's let's go for a bit of a drive see if it gets better oh it doesn't no it's it's really not gotten any better here i love that the actual gpu utilizations cracked but i guess that's just because the interface has been saturated i guess it's like a hundred percent interface utilization oh yeah this is this is how you want a game with your brand new thousand two hundred dollar gpu oh that is that is horrendous that is definitely worse than a gt710 which is crazy i didn't think that that was possible even with oof even with any bottleneck we just dipped below double digits there but with that let's do some benchmarks and see in actual raw performance uh how it compares with the gt710 damn that's not even just within the margin of error and bigger than the average differences is the difference with the one percent lows and you really can feel how much more stuttery it is with the 3080 ti and the pci slot but with that let's try some big boy games like battlefield 5 and cyberpunk oh yes this is how you really should experience battlefield 5. ah this is the business 1080p low settings and we're hitting 3 fps with the 3080ti okay here we are we've got some combat coming there's there's a little bit of input lag i'd say this is this is the worst gaming experience i've ever seen on a system before this is like oh but we're gonna we're gonna get a kill i think i think he's died okay dope look at that we got a kill handgun should i just stab him ow what's happening oh it's worked okay we gonna oh no i'm so hurt as well oh yeah i don't think it's running any better at 720p if anything is worse wow we're fluctuating between like two and four frames per second i think if anything 720p is running worse than 1080p wow of course half-life 2 somehow manages to run super well we're on low settings here but we are running at 1080p and yeah we're getting like above 100 frames per second hey would you look at that we're getting about 40 frames per second here which means we're actually getting better gaming performance than chewie gave us uh which tells you a lot about celerons but um you know this is a 3080 ti so i guess it shouldn't be massively
