It's primarily for GPU-assisted Video decoding (although modern iGPU's do this anyway) and multiple display outputs.

It is an iGPU sold separately.

THE ONLY TIME it is worth it, is if you need a different display output to what your motherboard has.

(I have seen one used like that at work)

It's primarily for GPU-assisted Video decoding (although modern iGPU's do this anyway) and multiple display outputs.

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz

I was just about to ask what the hell that card is for. Thank you for explaining it to me :)

Even cheaper again is the 7790 (same card before rebrand).

Finding a 2GB model is a bit harder though... But I found a 2GB HD7790 /w warranty left for $60 used.
