News Colorful Unchains GeForce GT 1010 With DDR4 to Rival iGPUs

5700G destroys this… even the 5600G.
point is not to be gaming card, but to revive liquid damaged or broken rigs to get something out.

Imagine you had a flood and your whole rig was destoryed, but you had encrypted drives and there will be problem with passwords... GPU is dead and you had lets say ryzen 3600 so no IGPU, (or IGPU hdmi died as well)
on board like that you dont connect your 3080ti but something that is disposable afterwards.
those will propably end up in tinkers drawers for this kind of projects...

$70 for a disposable backup card? You could head to eBay or Goodwill and pickup literally any PCIe GPU after 2007 for that purpose for practically nothing. The only Use I see for this is CPUs lacking integrated graphics, or adding two more HDMI ports granting additional monitors for productivity.

This is a slap in the face... It's not even useful for a home server. Even Amd is guilty of releasing stuff like this

This isn't meant for the regular consumer market, and it isn't meant to be a backup card either. It exists to serve a handful of niche cases were you simply need display outputs, and don't care about graphics performance beyond that. In a corporate environment, that can be supporting additional monitors, adding display output to something that has no iGPU, or maintaining legacy systems. In other environments, you might want this for digital signage or embedded applications. Gaming performance doesn't matter at all, it only needs to drive a monitor or two. And there's no reason to spend more on a better card if that's all you need.
