Must Read: GeForce GTX 1050 2GB vs 3GB Comparison Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1050 OC Low Profile 2G Specifications However, while most low profile graphics cards come with only a single fan thanks to their smaller stature, some more budget-friendly versions carry passive heatsinks for them to cool efficiently. This will be an important thing to look out for if you want a truly quiet graphics card as they often produce very little noise as a result. Power

Here we have ZOTAC GeForce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5 Low Profile Graphics Card based on the latest Pascal GPU architecturefrom Nvidia. It comes with 384 CUDA Cores and 2GB GDDR5 video memory. GeForce GT 1030 is a budget graphics card meant for playing eSports titles and older games on high settings at a decent resolution. Also, you can play some of the latest games on low settings at 720p resolution on this card. This Radeon RX 460 low-profile video card supports AMD FreeSync and CrossFire technologies. The card has lower power consumption (max. 75W) and it does not require external PCIe power connectors from the PSU. The recommended power supply for this card is 400W. Connectivity options for this card include DVI-D and HDMI ports. Highly Recommended by me. MSI Radeon RX 460 2GT LP Specifications Next in our lineup is the EVGA GeForce GT 1030 SC 2GB GDDR5 low profile graphics card. This particular model is a great all-rounder if you’re looking for a low profile graphics card that’s capable of taking on varied tasks.

Advantages of Low Profile Graphics Cards

Core i7 will give better performance but the difference is not substantial enough to invest in a better GPU. Power Supply Unit The card comes with 2GB 64-bit GDDR5 memory which is more than enough for video editing, photo editing, and normal gaming on medium settings. Unlike GT 710 this card can run older and mid-level games like Skyrim, Call of Duty, Far Cry, and CSGO on medium-high settings at 720p and 1080p. The card temperature remains well under 60 degrees even at full load. It does not need external PCIe connectors and comes with VGA, DVI, and HDMI display ports. GeForce GT 710 is one of the best and cheapest low-profile graphic cards that you can find on the market. First of all, this is not a graphics card meant for gaming. This card is the best cheapest solution available when you want to upgrade the graphics of your older computer from integrated or onboard graphics. Someone in an other blog mentioned that he had no problems running a GTX 660 GPU on the same Motherboard.

So why is GP108 so much more complex of a GPU than GK208? The two GPUs do span a couple of different architectures, so they’re organized differently, for starters. As i also installed a large diaphragm microphone in the working room, I had to chose a fanless graphics card. These small fans make a lot of noise (for the high sensitivity microphone), even if the graphic card is not fully utilized. The GT 1030 (passively cooled) is a good tradeoff in this case, but it also throttles a little bit during gaming to prevent overheating. On the other hand Dell OptiPlex MT models will support the full 75 W draw from the PCIe slot. GPU profile (height)

The card comes with 4352 CUDA Cores, 34 RT Cores (3rd Generation), and 136 Tensor Cores (4th Generation). It uses a cut-down version of the AD106 GPU Chip and is built on the smaller 5nm fabrication process. It comes with 8GB GDDR6 memory that has a 128-bit interface and runs at a speed of 17 Gbps. The card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate, OpenGL 4.6, Vulkan, PCI-Express 4.0 (x8), Real-Time Ray Tracing, HDMI 2.1, Resizable BAR, G-Sync, AV1 Hardware Encode/Decode, HDMI 2.1, Deep Learning Super Sampling 3 (DLSS 3). The maximum power consumption of the card is 115W and it requires one 8-pin PCIe power connector. The PSU recommendation for this card is of 450W. Display connectivity options include two DisplayPort 1.4a Ports and two HDMI 2.1a ports. Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4060 OC Low Profile 8G Specifications GeForce GT 740 is another powerful budget graphics card. Both GT 730 and GT 740 have 385 CUDA Cores but then also GT 740 is faster than GT 730 because of the newer GPU architecture and greater memory interface of 128-bit. Less Power Consuming – Because of their small size and fewer components, low-profile graphics cards consume less power than regular-sized graphics cards. Almost all the low-profile graphics cards do not need an external power connector from the PSU, and they work only on the power supplied by the PCI Express x16 slot. Also, you do not need a high-wattage power supply for them, as a budget PSU of 400W is enough for them, given that it is an average PC build. The fastest low-profile graphics card from AMD right now. Radeon RX 6400 is the smallest graphics card in the AMD Radeon RX 6000 series and it sits below the RX 6500 XT in the RX 6000 series. The card is built on the RDNA 2 GPU architecture on the 6nm fabrication process and uses Navi 24 GPU in a cut-down form. RX 6400 comes with 768 Stream Processors and 4GB GDDR6 memory having 64-bit bus width and the memory runs at a speed of 16Gpbs delivering bandwidth of 128 GB/s. The card offers performance equal to GTX 1650 and in some games, it can even outperform it. It is a good card for eSports gaming and for running the latest games at 1080p resolution with medium graphics settings. The card supports PCIe 4.0 but the PCI-Express bandwidth is rather limited to x4 lanes only.

P.S. –If you want both low profile and passive GeForce GT 1030 card then you should go for EVGA GeForce GT 1030 SC Passive Low Profile. ZOTAC GeForce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5 Specifications This is a very powerful low-profile graphics card because of the latest GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GPU and it can play the latest games like Fallout 4, GTA5, etc. on high settings @1080p. The power consumption of this card is 75W and it needs a good 300W power supply. Connectivity options includeDVI, HDMI, and DisplayPort. So if you are looking for the fastest low-profile gaming graphics card under 300 dollars then this is the one you must buy.
