Rare Nvidia GTX 750 Ti With 8GB VRAM Runs Cyberpunk 2077 at 30 FPS Despite Its Aging Hardware

A rare modified Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti graphics card featuring 8GB of GDDR5 memory has been tested in modern PC games, demonstrating that the 12 year old GPU can still run demanding titles under heavily reduced graphics settings.

The unusual card, manufactured by Chinese vendor Xynsviu, was purchased for £160 by YouTuber RandomGaminginHD. Testing confirmed that it contains a genuine GTX 750 Ti processor with 640 CUDA cores, paired with four times the memory capacity of the original 2GB model.

Despite the additional VRAM, performance remains relatively close to the standard GTX 750 Ti, highlighting the limitations of its older graphics architecture.

Modified GTX 750 Ti Features 8GB GDDR5 Memory and 640 CUDA Cores

The Xynsviu graphics card uses Nvidia's original GM107 GPU architecture but replaces the standard memory configuration with eight 1GB GDDR5 modules.

The card features a dual fan cooling design, occupies two expansion slots and operates without an additional six pin power connector.

Testing with GPU-Z confirmed its specifications, including a 128 bit memory bus and 8GB of VRAM.

Specification	Xynsviu GTX 750 Ti 8GB
GPU	Nvidia GM107
CUDA cores	640
Graphics memory	8GB GDDR5
Memory speed	1253MHz
Memory bus	128 bit
Memory bandwidth	80.2GB/s
Purchase price	£160

Interestingly, the modified card offers lower memory bandwidth than the original GTX 750 Ti, which delivered approximately 86.4GB/s.

This helps explain why the larger memory capacity does not translate into a substantial performance improvement.

Cyberpunk 2077 and Battlefield 6 Run at Around 30 FPS

The modified GPU was tested in several modern games, including Cyberpunk 2077 and Battlefield 6.

Cyberpunk 2077 achieved an average of approximately 31.9 FPS at 1080p using the lowest graphics settings and FSR 2.1 Performance mode.

Battlefield 6 averaged approximately 35 FPS with minimum graphics settings and a 50% resolution scale.

During Battlefield 6 testing, VRAM consumption exceeded 4GB, demonstrating that the additional memory capacity can accommodate larger game assets.

However, the GPU's limited processing power prevents it from delivering consistently high performance in demanding titles.

Less demanding games, including Counter Strike 2, Fortnite, Overwatch and Arc Raiders, achieved 60 FPS or higher under reduced graphics settings.

Extra VRAM Cannot Fully Compensate for Older GPU Architecture

The results demonstrate that increasing graphics memory alone cannot overcome the limitations of an older processor.

Although the 8GB configuration provides more room for textures and game data, the GTX 750 Ti still relies on aging hardware with relatively limited compute performance and memory bandwidth.

The £160 asking price also makes the modified card difficult to recommend for practical gaming upgrades.

Nevertheless, the experiment demonstrates that older GPUs can remain functional in modern games when graphical settings and resolution are adjusted appropriately.

For hardware enthusiasts, the Xynsviu GTX 750 Ti represents an unusual example of how manufacturers can extend the capabilities of discontinued graphics processors through custom memory configurations.
