ASUS Phoenix GeForce GT 1030 OC Edition Graphics Card

Based on NVIDIA’s Pascal architecture, the ASUS Phoenix GeForce GT 1030 OC Edition Graphics Card provides major improvements in performance, memory bandwidth, and power efficiency over its predecessor, the Maxwell architecture.

The front panel of the card features a variety of outputs. There is one HDMI 2.0b output and one DVI-D output. The GTX 1030 is not just about high-resolution gaming: Computationally intensive programs can utilize the GPU’s 384 cores to accelerate tasks using CUDA or other APIs.

For cooling, ASUS implemented a single dual-ball bearing fan. The dual-ball bearing fan avoids the problem of the oil drying, which is common in sleeve-bearing fans. With reduced friction, the dual-ball bearing fan improves the card’s lifespan as well as the cooling efficiency.
