  1. Shit happens. Nice recovery. I've often thought the PCIe version was overrated for video cards. Gen 1? Well, that did better than I expected. Have never been concerned about gen 3.

  2. From what I understand from what HUB said about the 6500XT the PCIe generation only really matters when you run out of VRAM. Since that is a 4GB card it runs out of VRAM a lot and is this more crippled, especially because of the 4x lanes. I’d be interested to see this test with a card with less VRAM. Maybe a 3070 or something like that with games and settings known to stress the 8GB of VRAM because that should cripple it when it tries to use system memory instead of VRAM.

  3. Thank you Danny, Sleep tight, I'll hope to one day get up there with those big budget nerds, you really deserve it, every video is fun and educational. One of my fav channels on YT.

  4. Thise were some very interesting results. They were around what I would expect <10% most of the time (the only greater % difference was when the framerate was low and 5-6fps meant 20% uplift ).
    It's quite nice to have a decent proof that older pcie versions don't matter too much when gaming.

  5. You are obviously a anti rip off shill, there is no way that every few years the manufacturers release another technology upgrade that we have to have if we don't want to game on an etch a sketch. Obviously you are trying to take money from pooer billionaires.

  6. i'd love to see what happens with a 4090 at 4k … these results are crazy .. I had someone on facebook arguing me that there would be a huge difference between pci 3 and 4 .. I said I didn't think it would be more than a few fps

  7. I really enjoy your content but I am failing to understand the point of making a video with a clickbaity title to essentially say that yes your numbers you released were already correct when you are making another video comparing the PCIe gens already where this info would have been an entertaining anecdote instead of wasting the viewers time with no truly new information. (Of course unintentionally)
