EVGA's GeForce GT 430 Sticks to the Basics

btarunr · Oct 11, 2010, 07:17 PM

EVGA's GeForce GT 430 lineup started neat and simple, with a low-frills graphics card (model: 01G-P3-1430-LR), build on the company's in-house design that closely resembles the reference design from NVIDIA. While the PCB covers all the essentials, the cooler looks to be more cost-effective than NVIDIA's reference design. The card is both low-profile and single-slot, making it ideal for slim form-factor media PCs. The GPU is clocked at 700 MHz, the 96 CUDA cores at 1400 MHz, and the 128-bit DDR3 memory interface also at 1400 MHz, holding 1 GB of memory. EVGA is pricing its card at US $79.99 on its store, though a mail-in rebate 'could' cut that price by $10. There is no overclocked variant from the company currently listed.

Looks like it would make a good PhysX card, right on the edge of the price limit I would set for a PhysX card though.

These 430 cards should cost no more than 60 bucks if you ask me.
The DDR3 cards anyways.

I want to see one of these on a pci-e 1x or even 4x slot, that would make it even more attractive IMO
