Review on 💻 ZOTAC GeForce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5 Low Profile Video Card - Review, Price, and Specifications by Ben Jacobson

This is a solid buy for any system that needs a reliable, high quality, low power miniature GPU. It takes up very little space, runs cool, runs quietly and of course has great NVIDIA Control Panel functionality. It won't render demanding games with high framerates, but for simple games it does the job well. It also draws all power from the motherboard with no additional connectors. If you're looking for a gaming card to match, you're better off looking for a GTX 1050 ti, but if you just want a cheap old machine with a bit more power, you'll need a good build solution with no integrated graphics, or whatever you want just tinkering with light games, this is your choice. You can't go wrong with Zotac either. They belong unconditionally to my current favorite GPU manufacturer and I walk with them with every purchase I make. One thing to keep in mind is that this card doesn't support NVIDIA ShadowPlay so I had to return mine as soon as I found out. Other than that one issue, it met all my needs.
