Entry-level GPU with 1 GB DDR3

The EVGA GeForce GT 730 is a PCI Express 2.0 x16 graphics card built around the NVIDIA GT 730 chipset. It targets users who need basic display output, multi-monitor support or light CUDA acceleration on systems without integrated graphics. The 96 CUDA cores run at a 902 MHz core clock with 1 GB of 128-bit DDR3 memory at 1800 MHz effective.

Dual-link DVI and Mini HDMI outputs

Two DVI-I Dual Link connectors and one Mini HDMI port drive up to three displays at a maximum resolution of 4096 x 2160. No DisplayPort is present, so adapters are required for modern panels that lack DVI or HDMI inputs. The card supports DirectX 12, OpenGL 4.4, OpenCL, PhysX, Adaptive V-Sync, 3D Vision, FXAA, TXAA and PureVideo HD decode.

1 GB frame buffer and 25.6 GB/s bandwidth

The 1 GB memory capacity and 25.6 GB/s bandwidth handle desktop composition, video playback and older titles at modest settings. Modern games, high-resolution textures or compute workloads quickly exhaust the frame buffer and memory throughput. A compact fansink cooler fits the 167.75 x 111.15 mm PCB for low-profile chassis compatibility.

Questions about this item

Will the fansink need cleaning or replacement after extended use?

The card uses a fansink cooler; dust buildup on the heatsink and fan blades can reduce airflow, so periodic cleaning with compressed air is the only maintenance the cooler requires.

What limit appears first when the GPU runs at 902 MHz for long periods?

The 1 GB DDR3 frame buffer and 25.6 GB/s bandwidth become the bottleneck before the 96 CUDA cores reach full utilisation in sustained workloads.

How much noise and heat does the fansink produce during all-day operation?

The low 700 MHz core clock and 96 CUDA cores keep power draw modest, so the fansink runs at low RPM, producing minimal noise and heat inside a typical case.
