EVGA GeForce GT 1030 SC, 02G-P4-6332-KR, 2GB GDDR5, Passive, Low Profile $89.99

+ $20 off w/ promo code VGAPCJY348, limited offer


This is a solid deal, for the 2GB GDDR5 model (BEWARE the DDR4 models, they are only HALF the speed of the GDDR5 models). Can be used as a poor-man's gaming card (barely). Great for some 4K UHD display output over HDMI. Great for SFF PCs (LP), that don't have beefy power supplies.

Edit: Picked one up. Btw, when I added to cart, another promo code showed up, for $15. I removed that one, and applied the one in this post, and got $20 off. Be careful not to accept the default promo code. (They don't stack.)

Edit: This is a double-width card because of the width of the cooler, but most modern LP cards are double-width anyways. I think this card LOOKS really awesome. Kind of like a neat piece of architecture.

$101.79 at Amazon:

How do these compare with the msi 1030 oc lp passive? I see that one sometimes for as cheap as $33 shipped.
WHAT? WHERE???

If that's the DDR4 version, it's worthless for gaming, for the most part, but for a 2D card, it would be alright. Especially at that price.

Sure you're not getting mixed up with the GT 710 cards, those go for around that price.

My secret. ;) Otherwise they would be gone since they only pop up once in a blue moon and qty 1. I dunno, I'm up too late to check, lol.

I mean, sometimes I see Refurbs on Newegg from MSI and Gigabyte, and occasionally Asus. Sometimes, they're at a really great price, and sometimes, they're like only $10 cheaper than new. Big whoop.

I bought my last batch of GTX 1650 Gigabyte ITX cards for $119.99 REFURB @ Newegg, and a Ventus OC GTX 1650 D5 for $129.99 REFURB.

This isn't a refurb, but I can't remember the exact model number--it's the MSI OC LP 1030 though I know that. I've never jumped on it, but maybe I should have.

The full size cards are much better value for the money for sure. But when you're cramped like in an sff, the lp cards make a lot of sense for what they are. Too bad Dell put the power supply next to the x16 slot on the 3020 sff--next to impossible to find any cards for that at all--I'm just going to run something vintage, lol.
