Hello and Welcome to another BudgetBuilds Episode where today we're going to be taking a bit of a look back at the strange GTX+ Series, a strange die shrunk flagship released as a budget competitor for £50 more than its competition. A card so strange hat everyone seems to gloss over it.
But today in 2020 these things are crazily cheap, and they dont carry the same price tag as the 8800GTX Card, despite being better, all very strange, So join me today as we push it through some old and new titles just to see how well it was holding up.
