Note for the future

3) This GPU is a good ole tried and true 1030. These 1030s 2GB DDR5 were used 10 years ago and were considered good then. This model can be overclocked safely to its stated oc boost if done right.
But if you find that is not enough because you want more out of your monitor, or have a bigger monitor running at higher Hz, then it should be simple to put a 2 fan, or short 3 fan, GPU in this 2GB Asus 1030's place. Don't chuck this 1030 out though, unless you broke it by getting greedy and overclocking it past its oc boost point. Take good care of it. I'll try to save the box. She'll be reusable again. And given enough time, will be a fine antique...if you remember to store it in a safe place dry and underground with at least some lead lining. The WW3 survivors may need it to use as a model for when they try to rebuild after. They'll need to relearn how to float and store electrons in matrices. WW3 survivors will not be grateful. Grateful by then will be considered to be an ignorant old fashioned notion. Luckily I don't think I'll have any descendents among them. So to any descendents who may have been, I simply say "You're Welcome" to the thanks you'll never have to say. But for those who survive WW3, who I know will mostly be asswipes slaughtering the non-asswipes, I will kindly leave some technology in the hope that a few of YOUR descendents will make a better world than the destroyed world your ancestors left for you. For those good ones who will need to travel to other worlds. And remember this. Do not make your world SEEM to be any good. Especially if it actually is! Asswipes will want to take it from you. Best defense is a disguise of awfulness. "Caution. Extremely intense Gamma Ray burst solar system. These come at random." I live in a high crime area.
