THIS is a Graphics Card..?? - ASRock Rack M2_VGA
2,907,020
Published 2021-01-28
The folks over at ASRock RACK have created a graphics card that fits in an M.2 socket – it’s a lot smaller than an Nvidia RTX 3080 - but can it run games?
Check out that ASRock Rack M2_VGA Module at lmg.gg/5wcQF

good enough to run STALKER
-
You jest, but this might just be the best external graphics card currently available for the Raspberry Pi...
-
I hope the thing is actually doing anything and not just redirecting to the CPU...
-
Was thinking this might actually be good for playing classic games on a small x86 SBC like a LattePanda or Rock Pi X. But those Intel Atom SoCs already have built in Intel UHD GPUs that are probably far more capable than M.2 GPUs like this

I've seen Linus more than my family this year
-
Schools: "I'LL TAKE YOUR ENTIRE STOCK!!!"
-
2 years later, YouTube pushes this vid to my feed and I never knew it existed
-
I agree that it would work for server rack video. But I'm also thinking that it could be used in RaspberryPi/Arduino setups.
-
“I remember downloading certain types of pictures” YES LINUS WE ALL REMEMBER THAT
-
I love that him holding his finger on the chip is liquid cooling it.
-
Honestly, I think this thing would be pretty useful for headless servers if you just need a barebones display output for a command line in case SSH breaks. I have a homelab setup myself and my server machine has 1050 Ti in it for Jellyfin transcoding, but if I didn’t need hardware accelerated transcoding, I could easily see using something like this for a basic CLI output just-in-case.
-
When will tours of lab 2 be available? I really want to check out the space and see the testing you guys are up to
-
When they say "gaming machines" i think they refer more to actual gaming machines like slots, poker etc...
-
You need to give this to Low Spec Gamer. This is pure gold.
-
i could see something like this being used in a server farm, or possibly a mining farm/rig.
-
That actually seems very useful for simple embedded systems. A PI would be easier to use of course, but if you wanted to run a monitor or small display from a teensy, that would technically be possible.
-
“I would describe it as seconds per frame, rather than frames per second.” 😂
-
Linus : "It defaulted to 64hz. What kind of number is that?" Me : Why of course, it's a stack of hz.
-
This may actually have a good purpose. This can probably help with making a computer post when it doesn’t have an integrated GPU installed in the CPU. Most CPU’s without graphics need some sort of graphics driver for it to run, and this is no exception. This could help somebody with no GPU but intent to get one soon and when they upgrade, or get scammed on Ebay or something, they still have a graphics drivers unit in their PC.
-
Other use is aesthetics for RGB Cases.. which can be used as Indicators for Framerate, Temperature, Power, CPU Clock, GPU clock and many more.
