PNY VCNVS310DVI-1GB-PB
The Quadro NVS 310 pairs 48 CUDA cores with 1GB of DDR3 memory on a 64-bit interface, delivering 14.0 GB/s bandwidth and supporting dual displays at up to 2560 x 1600 via two DisplayPort 1.2 outputs. Its low-profile design and passive fanless operation make it a quiet, space-saving fit for compact workstations, though it lacks ray tracing support. This card suits budget-conscious IT buyers who need reliable multi-monitor output for office productivity or basic 2D workstation tasks, not 3D rendering.
