ASUS has resurrected the GeForce GT 710, an ancient graphics card powered by NVIDIA’s 2012 Kepler GPU microarchitecture. While this would be a terrible option for modern games, it could be a good fit for system builders who are looking for a GPU that can power a simple, multi-monitor setup geared toward general productivity – the GT710-4H-SL-2GD5 features four HDMI ports, takes up just one PCI-E x1 slot, and is passively cooled.



Specification-wise, we’re looking at just 192 CUDA Cores, 2 GB of GDDR5 memory, and an engine/memory clock of 954 MHz/5012 MHz. Again, this is a bad idea for gaming, but the card is good enough to output 4K @ 60 Hz (although that drops to 30 Hz if more than one monitor is connected).



4x HDMI Ports enable multi-monitor productivity on up to 4 displays.Single-slot Design fits...

Wait,

What year is it again? Are Kepler chips really still being manufactured?

I thought Nvidia was discontinuing driver support for Kepler starting this month?

Don't get me wrong. I love small lightweight GPU's for subch things like adding hardware decide support for the latest video codecs, but as I recall Kepler doesn't even fully support HEVC decodes...
