Gaming GeForce GT 710, Black, 2GB GDRR3 64-bit HDCP Support DirectX 12 OpenGL 4.5 Single Fan Low Profile, NVIDIA, HDMI/VGA

I bought this for an Inspiron 3647 running Windows 10 and it took me ELEVEN hours to figure out how to install it...because I'm a noob. Solution is in last paragraph if you don't want to read about my trials and tribulations. My pc has only VGA and HDMI for monitor output, and the HDMI quit working. I wanted to have a dual monitor setup and I had an empty PCIe slot, so I figured I'd get a graphics card. My main monitor was VGA and I was hoping to get the 2nd (an old monitor I brought from work so I could work from home during the COVID-19 pandemic) into HDMI. Got the card inserted into the slot and powered everything back up. BLACK SCREEN!!! Not even the integrated graphics VGA worked! I had no clue what to do! I powered down, took the graphics card back out and was able to see via the VGA again. The product did not come with a cd for the driver, so I went to the NVIDIA website to download it. Got the .exe going, but it wouldn't let me run the install wizard because it couldn't detect the card. (Nooo duhhh...because I had to take the card out to even SEE how to get to the website to download the driver!!!) Only the integrated graphics showed up under display in Device Manager. I thought that maybe my HDMI cable was bad so I tested them out with the laptop. They worked great. Turns out the old monitor from work was no good. Back to the drawing board. I scoured tons of forums for solutions and pored over them for hours. One solution was to boot up in safe mode and enable the PCIe slot in BIOS. So, I go to BIOS and there is absolutely NOTHING about graphics, video interface, northbound or southbound (or whatever it is) settings...NOTHING. Spent about an hour trying to read up on BIOS and where else it could possibly be. Couldn't find a thing. So I decided to look up if I should update my BIOS. After all, I was running version A04. I got conflicting answers about whether or not I should - this did not really help me at all. I tried to find out how I could even update the BIOS...I didn't know where to go. My search led me to Dell's website, where I input the service code of my pc and it showed me about 11 different updates it needed to do - one of which was a BIOS marked URGENT! Matter of fact, it was wanting to update to BIOS version A11!!! No WONDER I was having trouble! Intel's website told me, if I understood it correctly, that I could not use an external graphics card in addition to the integrated graphics card...that only one would be active. That bummed me out because in order to make the graphics card fit, I had to take off the VGA port and install it with the smallest bracket, which only left me with HDMI and DVI. I was hoping to use the integrated VGA and the HDMI on the new graphics card. Solution: I updated my BIOS to the latest version, enabled Intel Multi-Display in BIOS, and was then able to continue the NVIDIA control panel installation, which enabled my new graphics card. I was also able to use the integrated VGA AND the HDMI on the new graphics card with no trouble! Hopefully, this poor sap is able to help another poor sap out. :) Con: My only con (other than the legwork required for me to install it - but that is most likely due to my pc being old) is that the fan is noisier than I expected.

(Review is for the GT 710 2GD3 LP) ----------------------------------------------------- UPDATE 12/17/2019: I just picked up a new HDTV, the Samsung 43" model UN43NU6900BXZA which offers 4K and UHD. Amazon carries it as does Bestbuy and others locally. It may be a baseline model, but, wow, the pic quality is extremely crisp and clean. The MSI Gaming GeForce GT 710 2GB is working perfectly with my new 4K Samsung, using my Mac Pro running Mojave. This card supports 4K and there was no adjustments in settings needed for setup, the card and my 4K Samsung communicated perfectly and my Mac Pro make the resolution settngs seamlessly in the background upon connecting. The quality of my Mac Pro now (running Mojave for the present) is stellar. Details, fine text, screen fit, contrast, color...etc...it all looks superb. If you are considering a 4K display upgrade, YES, this card will work perfectly with it! --------------------------- I needed an inexpensive card to upgrade my Mac Pro 5.1 mid-2012 and this card works perfectly for that. No power cable needed and a very small profile that won't get in the way of other cards and slots. It is self powered by the PCIe bus so no power cable was needed. Of course there is no boot screen during boot nor a way to select which drive to boot from if you have more than one OS drive. You can easily though, change the "start-up" drive once the OS is booted and loaded in System Preferences, so not a big deal for me. I am using the HDMI output to a Samsung 1080 HDTV and there was no need to tweak screen fit or anything. The card booted right up to a perfect screen display. I've tried a few other Apple recommended cards in the past and honestly, none did any better than this. I returned one at over $150 simply because I decided to wait for a lower priced card to do the same thing and this MSI card does! Additionally, this card seems to wake my Mac out of sleep very quickly. The older cards I tried seemed very sluggish to do that, this card seems much more responsive to wake my Mac. A Win-Win in here! HMDI won't pass the audio, but, no cards out there will do that unless specifically made for a Mac Pro and flashed correctly. I have optical and digital output on my M. Pro so not a biggie. The card seems responsive and fast and at some point I will do a "Geekbench" test. The 1080 on my Samsung HDTV looks crisp and clear output from this card. I would say 1080 looks slightly better on this card than my old OEM one that came installed on my Mac. Small icon seems a bit crisper and clearer. Close to the old card, but, there is definitely a bit of improvement there. The card is fan cooled and since I won't be gaming with this desktop, it should run very cool routinely. 5 Stars all around and a great way to upgrade an older Mac Pro on the cheap.

Very pleased with this purchase. Tweaking an older HP Win 7 system to run Win 10, I found the poorest performing element was the on-board video capability, or rather, lack of it. The microtower chassis had only one slot on the board and two chassis openings for low profile cards. Because the very compact chassis meant that airflow was poor, I wanted active cooling, even though that would take a few watts of additional power from my seriously undersized 240W PSU. Although some specs say this needs a 300W PSU, I finally found that this unit generally draws under 20W and since i had only 1 chassis fan, no lights, an efficient, cool running but not SSD HDD, and no additional add-in cards, it seemed a match. With 2 GB of RAM vs. other 1GB versions, this is the best low power performer I found. Any games played are older, and I have left everything at factory settings. Win 10 drivers were easy to install and rock solid. I have not had a single flicker or resolution hiccup in the well over a month period since purchase. Running the latest win 10 builds without any issues. Far from a barn burner, but fine for general computing and way better than the on-board chipset it replaced. The HDD is now the bottleneck, which I bought for size, not speed. Recommended where low profile, low power, and moderate performance demands are your criteria.

I needed a cheap video card for a NAS I built out of an old 2008 DELL T-7400 to replace the original card that had a DVI port. Works great!

I'm very pleased with this card. I installed it in my new build a few days ago. I had to upgrade my OS. I had problems with the installation at first. After determining that my operating system was old (I was still running Windows XP) and unsupported by the card, I did a format and a clean install of Windows 8.1. After that, I was able to run the card software in minutes. Once installed, setting up displays (I have two monitors) and configuring the display settings was a breeze, and I'm a NOOB! Displays for up to three monitors will show. I use the VGA and HDMI ports, as I don't have DVI cables. Still, the graphics I get are excellent. If you're a die-hard gamer, this card isn't for you. I don't doubt that it can push games well, I'm just assume gaming would require a higher quality device for better resolution. I use my card for basic purposes; web surfing, school work--I also do some work from home, so this is fine for me. The quality of resolution is fine for my two 27" Dell ultra widescreen monitors and I don't get any flicker. My picture quality is very clean. I DO recommend this card to ANYONE. It's a great card well worth the money. Thanks, MSI.

This Graphics card, while certainly a budget one, is not useful for running any games with 3d graphics or guns and will rarely allow one to play anything on more than medium or low settings. Though it works great for most pre-2013/14 games, anything newer than that will have a hard time. In most cases, for any game made in 2015 or is newer, this graphics card will likely not meet minimum requirements to play on all the lowest settings. It's better to shell out the extra $100 or so, even though it's roughly 2x the cash, on a better graphics card. (like the Radeon Rx 580 for example) Otherwise, it runs like a charm, is silent and energy efficient, and works well for running most anything pre-2014 at medium-high (not ultra) qualities.

My Acer Aspire TC-885-ACCFLi5O desktop had integrated graphics that were less than optimal for even basic video watching. Glitchy video playback was concerning, so I purchased this card to put into the PCI-express slot. I purchased this card knowing it was low-profile, which was good. It fit right into the case and snapped in without issue. No need to connect anything beyond that and the whole process took 5 minutes. The card ships with a driver CD. I installed the drivers and the additional software on the CD but ended up removing the additional software as it related to overclocking and I didn't need it. I like this card as it costs less than fifty bucks and boosts the overall video performance of PCs with integrated graphics. This 2GB card is better than most of the 1GB cards at around the same price point and provides users with the option to have a dual monitor setup. (I'm using the HDMI port and so far, it works great.) If you need a cheap card for a system that has integrated graphics, this is one to consider.

Read all the reviews and was concerned about compatibility but this video card was the only one that appeared to fit the specifications for the Acer small SFF fit. Observations: used in a Windows 10 Build 1909 desktop. All security and cumulative updates installed. Many reviews (here and other sites) said that the card was not Windows 10 compatible. I purchased and installed to see what would “really” happen. Boot process was nominal but slow due to the hard wired AMD 45 Series Dual Core E1-1500 APU (CPU/GPU combo) on the motherboard and the installation of the generic Windows 10 driver updates. Once it finished loading the Windows 10 Basic Video Driver (2006 version), the computer stabilized nicely and performed within MB specifications (it’s most definitely NOT a gaming rig). The video card also fixed a persistent onboard GPU heat stress problem (95° C/197° F) that used only a passive heat sink (I had previously pulled the sink, applied new thermal paste with absolutely no improvement) by automatically disabling the onboard GPU and automatically enabling the PCIe 2.0 x16 expansion slot as I’d hoped and expected. Then I loaded the latest Nvidia driver for GeForce GT 710 2G3D LP series cards (with fan) from the Nvidia website (per the MSI website directions). There was absolutely no problems installing & running the 64-bit version of the driver. I also updated the Windows 10 basic video driver (2019 version) as backup (for MB GPU; no plans to use it unless there is a catastrophic failure of the MSI card). Conclusion and recommendation: Another quality product from MSI. Don't hesitate to use this card on older desktops that have an onboard fixed GPU as a viable upgrade solution. The low profile (LP) kit comes with the pictured default standard full height bracket (4.2 inches). There are also two LP brackets (3.118 inches) that can be substituted (like I did) requiring two LP slots if you need to use the VGA 15-pin socket. The Dual-link DVI and HDMI connectors are paired to the primary bracket; the VGA connector tied via the ribbon cable to the video card board and is secured on the second bracket using the existing video plug female fasteners. I did not test the DVI or HDMI connectors as the monitor my client uses is VGA only, so I can't comment on usability/compatibility or any issues that may occur.

جيد جدا مواصفات حلوه

Nachdem meine Grafikkarte von meinem altem Computer defekt war , habe ich eine ähnliche hiermit gefunden. Kann ich für ältere Computer empfehlen.

Extremely cheap graphic card I used for a debian server, works well enough.

good

I needed a half-height video card for basic office task (no onboard video) so I picked this up. It was inexpensive, its relatively well-built, and it does everything an OFFICE build will need me to do. No problems with playing HD netflix or Youtube, and Win10 has no problems with it all. I haven't tried playing games with it as that seems like a glorious waste of time. It has 2gb of VRAM which seems like a lot for a card this (un)powerful.
