Hi

I am looking for what SINGLE slot Kepler based cards exist.

So far I have GT710,720 & 730 (all a bit meh!). I have a crapp Quadro K600 right now also single slot.

I have a dual slot GT740 (GDDR5) but cannot find evidence for single slot versions

There are K4000 and K4200 Quadro Kepler cards (pretty expensive for that they are) that exist and get auctioned...

Am I missing some others to be looking for?

edit: Made Kepler BIGGER

There's the 650 Ti. The reference model is single-slot, albeit with a cooler that sticks out further. Colorful made a "true" single-slot version (the "Buri-Slim" model), but getting one of those would be a challenge I suspect. I doubt you can do better than the K4200 though, since that's GK104-based.

Thanks.. I see it exists on paper but not on auction sites worldwide... Looks v similar to the K4000 Quadro in specs also... Appreciate its another to add to my search criteria though :-)

No I mean the GT 1030 GK107 DDR5 Kepler card :p

https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-gt-1030-gk107.c3454

there are two versions of the 1030 - the pascal one is the poorer DDR4 one.

Not even listed on Gigabytes website... was it a paper launch? I have a Pascal GT1030 GDDR5 from Gigabyte... so that means we have 3 models..

Pascal GDDR5 (original launch)
Pascal DDR4 (the crappy one that was a cash grab and called out by Hardware Unboxed and others)
Kepler GDDR5 (the paper launch?)

Do we actually know if any got sold?

Well your search skills clearly better than mine as nothing on Gigabyte website. Nothing here using GK107 search time in last 7 years apart from this thread.

I'd be pleased (REALLY) if it does exist but would appreciate some links if you think there is plenty of evidence?!

EDIT: I did find one reference TWO now

Fake GT1030 with GK107 ?? So a rebadged GT730 ??
 
No links I`m afraid.

Although there is below but I cant link it as its an etailer. It was 122 Euros but out of stock >

thanks, its dual slot and the Kepler reference is a mistake.. all the frequencies used are total standard Pascal speeds... Oh well.. all my eggs in the Quadro basket it seems
 
@GR63 - Why does it need to be Kepler based? (just curious!)

also, way out of left field option - have you considered/have room for a watercooled card? I had WC 670s and a 780ti, all of which were a single slot thick, granted they all had 2 slot backplates but you could potentially desolder ports you don't need and dremel down the plate :D

as a slightly more direct answer, although probably rare as hens teeth, Galax (/Galaxy? I thought they were Galax!) did a single slot 670 at one point (dredged this up from the depths of my memory and it seems I remember correctly!)

I boot VMs with passthrough and Kepler means I can run latest MacOS VMs (Monterey etc).
 
but all nv cards now support passthrough, unless its OSX/emulation that stuck on Keplar? unless of course you go AMD which is also supported by OSX
 
Would the grid k1/k2 be an option? Dual slot but effectively 4 or 2 GPUs on a single card and designed for VM duties

They do or always could with some trickery but MacOS does not support them... Pascal cards WERE supported up to 10.12 IIRC but Turing and Ampere not at all... hence Kepler which IS still supported on latest MacOS

Not really.. I have an RTX3000 dual slot plus a single slot Quadro P620, idea being to run 2 VMs (Win/Mac) plus Linux at same time so not got space for chonkers
