Nvidia’s $70 GT 1030 is a budget graphics card for e-sport gamers
Nvidia has a new graphics card out, the GT 1030 — and unlike pricier options, it starts at just $69.99, or just one-tenth of the $699 price tag that the company’s monster GTX 1080 Ti commands. The news was first spotted by VentureBeat.

As such, it offers relatively weak specs — 2GB of onboard memory, and a core clock speed of 1265 MHz (which can boost to 1518 MHz). But that’s enough to run a wide range of popular e-sport games — including Dota 2, Rocket League, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, or League of Legends — perfectly well.
