Strix GTX 950 2 GB GDDR5 graphics card

The ASUS STRIX-GTX950-DC2OC-2GD5-GAMING is a GeForce GTX 950 board with 2 GB of GDDR5 memory on a 128-bit interface. It runs at a 1.17 GHz core clock and a 1.36 GHz boost clock over a PCI Express 3.0 link. The DirectCU II cooler uses a 0 dB fan design for quiet operation.

Ideal for 1080p esports and older titles

This card suits builders who need a dual-slot Plug-in Card with HDMI, DisplayPort and DVI outputs for legacy monitors. It supports OpenGL 4.5 and fits in cases that accept a 8.7 inch length. Buyers targeting modern AAA games or higher memory capacities should look at newer GPUs.

2 GB 128-bit GDDR5 frame buffer

The 2 GB 128-bit GDDR5 memory configuration is the specification that decides fit. It limits texture detail and resolution scaling in current titles. Verify the motherboard has a free PCI Express 3.0 slot and that the case can accommodate the 8.7 inch by 4.9 inch footprint before purchase.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the STRIX-GTX950-DC2OC-2GD5-GAMING and what must I buy separately?

The package includes the graphics card and a STRIX laser sticker. Power cables, display cables and mounting screws are not included and must be sourced separately.

Should I choose this 2 GB GDDR5 version or look for a different capacity?

This model provides 2 GB of GDDR5 on a 128-bit bus. If your games or applications need more frame-buffer memory, a higher-capacity card would be required.

What does the 1.36 GHz boost clock mean once the card is installed in my PC?

The GPU can raise its core frequency to 1.36 GHz under load, delivering higher frame rates than the 1.17 GHz base clock while staying within the dual-slot cooler's thermal limits.
