overclocking a quadro card?

[Frode]

Hi, i received a old quadro 2000 gpu by a family member. I don`t need the card of course but iàm interested how the card is going to perform in a overclock. The problem is that i can`t find a software to overclock the card with. msi afterburner software dosen`t detect the card for example. Anyone know how to overclock the card if possible?

You might be able to flash the quadro into a GT 440 or GTS 450. I wouldn't recommend it though, the card is probably worth more as a quadro and you might brick it.

Use it at stock.

Give it to a friend.

Sell it maybe. 

Keep it around. May be handy.

But don't overclock it.

MAYBE Nvidia Inspector can do it. Maybe... Or you'll have to flash a custom Bios, which isn't advised in the slightest.

Okay i won't consider overclock the card. I don't really need the as a spare either (I have a gtx 660 ti for that) but what should i price this card you think if i were to sell it?

Good question. Go to your "e-bay"ish site and browse prices for a quadro 2000. Put it lower than the lowest offer you can find.

 

In the mean time, do some number crunching with it (Boinc has lots of GPU projects that would love your help).

75-130 USD appears to be the typical range of this type of card. That's fair for this workstation card.

Pretty much what Imakuni said. Go on Ebay or Craigslist or whatever, search for your quadro, put in a price that's as low as you can go, but not too low that people see it as suspicious (you get those people), and wait for a bidder.
