DELL 0KYR71 Quadro FX 3800 workstation GPU

The DELL 0KYR71 Quadro FX 3800 is a workstation graphics card built for professional 3D modelling and CAD applications. It provides 1GB of GDDR3 memory across a 256-bit interface and 192 stream processors. The card targets users maintaining legacy workstations that require certified driver support for older ISV software. It is not suited for modern rendering workloads or gaming titles needing DirectX 11 or higher.

PCI Express 2.0 x16 interface limits

The card connects through a PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot, capping bandwidth to the 2.0 specification. DirectX 10 and OpenGL 3.0 support restrict compatibility with current professional APIs and viewport features. Maximum digital resolution reaches 2560 x 1600 across two DisplayPort outputs and one dual-link DVI port. SLI is supported for multi-GPU configurations within the same generation. Buyers needing DirectX 11, OpenGL 4.x or higher display resolutions should look elsewhere.

Installation notes and common issues

Installation requires a free PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot and a 6-pin auxiliary power connector from the power supply. The card fits standard full-height brackets and uses a conventional rear I/O layout. Driver support ends at Windows 7; newer operating systems lack official Quadro drivers for this GPU. Linux and Solaris drivers are available but may not receive updates. Verify chassis clearance and power supply connectors before purchase.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 1GB GDDR3 version of the Quadro FX 3800 for my workstation?

The 1GB GDDR3 frame buffer suits professional 3D applications and dual-monitor setups at 2560 x 1600 resolution.

What does the 192 stream processors figure mean for real-world CAD performance?

The 192 stream processors handle vertex and fragment workloads in DirectX 10 and OpenGL 3.0 pipelines for certified CAD and DCC software.

How does the PCI Express 2.0 x16 interface affect data throughput in practice?

PCI Express 2.0 x16 provides up to 8 GB/s bandwidth, sufficient for the 256-bit GDDR3 memory subsystem and SLI configurations.
