EVGA GeForce GT 730 4GB DDR3
The 4GB 128-bit DDR3 frame buffer is the primary differentiator for a card of this class, providing enough dedicated memory for multi-monitor productivity without taxing system RAM. Its low-profile, single-slot design and 50W TDP allow it to fit into virtually any slim or standard pre-built system without a power supply upgrade. This card is best for office users who need to drive two DVI monitors or add a basic HDMI output to an older PC lacking modern display connectivity.
