How about 9600GT graphics card: Performance review and market analysis
Against the backdrop of the rapid development of the graphics card market today, many users are still interested in the performance and practicality of old graphics cards such as the NVIDIA GeForce 9600GT. This article will conduct a detailed analysis of the 9600GT graphics card based on the popular topics and hot contents of the entire network in the past 10 days, and display its key parameters and market feedback through structured data.
1. Basic parameters of 9600GT graphics card
| parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Architecture | G94 |
| Manufacturing process | 65nm |
| Stream processor | 64 |
| Core frequency | 650MHz |
| Video memory capacity | 512MB/1GB GDDR3 |
| Video memory bit width | 256-bit |
| Video memory frequency | 900MHz |
| TDP power consumption | 95W |
2. Performance and game testing
As a graphics card released in 2008, the performance of the 9600GT was at the mid-range level at that time. Here is how it performs in some classic games (resolution: 1280x1024, medium quality):
| Game Name | Average Frame Rate (FPS) |
|---|---|
| "Crisis of Islands" | 25-30 |
| Call of Duty 4 | 40-50 |
| World of Warcraft | 50-60 |
| Half Life 2 | 60+ |
From the test data, it can be seen that the 9600GT can provide a smooth experience in mainstream games of that year, but it is completely incompetent for modern large-scale 3A games (such as "Cyberpunk 2077" and "Elden Fargo").
03. Current market feedback and user reviews
According to the network discussion in the past 10 days, the current positioning of the 9600GT graphics card is as follows:
| Evaluation dimension | Feedback content |
|---|---|
| Second-hand price | 50-100 yuan (domestic second-hand platform) |
| Main uses | Nostalgic games, office computers, spare machines |
| advantage | Low power consumption, good compatibility and extremely low price |
| shortcoming | DirectX is not supported 11. Performance is lagging behind |
4. Comparison of 9600GT with modern entry-level graphics cards
To show the technological gap more intuitively, here is a comparison between the 9600GT and the 2023 entry-level graphics card GTX 1650:
| Comparison items | 9600GT | GTX 1650 |
|---|---|---|
| Release time | 2008 | 2019 |
| Performance gap | 1x | About 8-10x |
| Power consumption | 95W | 75W |
| Whether it supports 4K | no | yes |
5. Conclusion and purchase suggestions
Overall, the actual value of the 9600GT graphics card in 2023 is mainly reflected in:
1.Nostalgic collection: Suitable for players who want to experience classic 2000s games
2.Extreme budget installation: Cooperate with the old platform to form a low-cost office machine
3.Hardware learning: As a training material for graphics card repair and disassembly
But for mainstream users,It is not recommended to purchase 9600GT as the main graphics card. Even the GTX 750 Ti (2014) at the second-hand market price of 100 yuan can provide more than 3 times the performance, and supports newer technology and lower power consumption.
