NVIDIA 32mb AGP Video Card QUADRO 2 MXR 10004385 Rev a

Posted (edited)

A while ago I received this graphic card from a box of random junk for free. I've been curious to see what graphics card it is, but the bracket I believe is made for a full height desktop. My only desktop is OptiPlex 9020 sff being half-height so I am unable to use a computer to examine it. Was hoping someone here could recognize it.

It probably wouldn't have fitted in your computer anyway without the case because it uses the VERY old AGP connector and socket. That card must be pushing past at least 16 years old. AGP was succeeded by PCIe in 2004. 

Fuck you scalpers, fuck you scammers, fuck all of you jerks that charge way too much to tech-illiterate people. 

Unless I say I am speaking from experience or can confirm my expertise, assume it is an educated guess.

Current setup: Ryzen 5 3600, MSI MPG B550, 2x8GB DDR4-3200, RX 5600 XT (+120 core, +320 Mem), 1TB WD SN550, 1TB Team MP33, 2TB Seagate Barracuda Compute, 500GB Samsung 860 Evo, Corsair 4000D Airflow, 650W 80+ Gold. Razer peripherals. 

Also have a Alienware Alpha R1: i3-4170T, GTX 860M (≈ a 750 Ti). 2x4GB DDR3L-1600, Crucial MX500

My past and current projects: VR Flight Sim: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/nathanpete/saved/#view=dG38Jx (Done!)

A do it all server for educational use: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/nathanpete/saved/#view=vmmNcf (Cancelled)

Replacement of my friend's PC nicknamed Donkey, going from 2nd gen i5 to Zen+ R5: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/nathanpete/saved/#view=WmsW4D (Done!)

Wow, so this card is pretty ancient then.

Lol, it does. Might make it a decorative piece for the fun of it.

The only thing that is still valuable on that thing is the heatsink.

Cut it up into small pieces, add to vrm, nvme or any hot chips.
