PNY NVIDIA Quadro K620 Graphics Card VCQK620-PB

I needed an inexpensive 3D modeling computer for home use and I went with the NVIDIA designed Quadro K620. This is the card used in all the 3D modeling computers on my campus and it is a recommended video solution for use with Solidworks.This card is clearly not NVIDIA's top of line Quadro card, but for the simple designs I do, it is plenty fast enough. I cannot tolerate any sort of lag when using a computer and this card delivers with flawless performance. No, I am not creating complicated 3D assemblies with hundreds of parts. If I were, I would have purchased a higher end Quadro card. For anyone learning 3D modeling like me and you really detest going to a computer lab to complete assignments, build yourself a computer with a 6th generation i-something processor, plenty of DDR4 RAM, Win 7-64 bit and this NVIDIA Quadro K620 video card.This PNY-made card came with a slim case bracket installed, but they included the larger bracket for normal ATX installation. Also included in the box is a DisplayPort to DVI pigtail, a DVI-to-VGA adapter, and "Driver Software and Documentation."For what I needed, this card performs perfectly on my inexpensive 3D modeling workstation.

I run two of these in a Dell T3400 work station. It runs 24/7 without any problems. The power supply in the T3400 is only 325 watts but still enough to power these two. For a professional card, I found the price very compelling. These cards do a lot of video for 45 watts each. I used to wait hours for my videos with this mechine, now they are ready in just a few minutes.

Bought this graphics card to replace an old NVS card which drove 2 rotated (portrait) monitors via VGA. Took a little bit of fiddling to get it to work as I have a VGA KVM so one of the K620 outputs had to feed VGA . What finally worked was using output 2 (DisplayPort) through a DVI adaptor to monitor 1 and output 1 (DVI) through a VGA adaptor to the KVM and then to monitor 2. I've been running this setup for nearly 3 weeks and everything is working well.

This Graphics adapter does a nice job with Solidworks, and costs far less than other nVidia Quadro products. It also has proven to be far superior to the AMD Fire V4900, which is similarly priced. I have installed at least 10 of these, and will likely continue to buy more.

The video card is good and fast. I bought a few of these for CAD systems. But be aware you will not receive the VGA adapter. You only get the video card, low profile adapter and Display port to HDMI adapter. The seller is false advertising!!

Easy to install and works great so far. Followed the directions included with the box. Was able to change to the taller retention bar by removing the 3 screws holding it in place and swapping it out. Powers my ultra wide LG 34UM95-P at 3440x1440 resolution via the DisplayPort. On an older HP Pavillion running Windows 7. Good enough for my needs with light video and gaming, and mostly productivity and browser computing.

This is actually not so much a review of the product as of the listing. I purchased this video card and was very excited to use it only to find that it requires UEFI support, something my computer does not have. The minimum requirements are not listed anywhere on this listing, I suggest you check them at the manufacturer's website: http://www.pny.com/nvidia_quadro_k620. Still, the UEFI dependency is not listed there, but now you know.

Purchased this card to work with Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom. It worked very good. BUT I encountered a problem with my DSL service after installing. The telephone lines were thourghly tested by the telephone company, showing no problems. After a long period of time and a second computer I determined the was caused by the GPU. I am giving a “1” because of this problem.
