Puget Systems Description

The GeForce GT 430 is the entry-point on nVidia's Fermi line of video cards, and rather than being aimed at gaming as the higher-end models are this model is intended for use in media playback and general usage systems. It has all the features of the Fermi line: DX11 compatibility, HDMI 1.4a (Blu-ray 3D capable), and CUDA.

Asus' version of this card is passively-cooled, making it a silent card and a great option for HTPC use or any time an upgrade from integrated graphics is needed. It also has a wide range of video outputs: DVI, HDMI and VGA; any two of those can be used at the same time, allowing for affordable dual monitor setups. Compared to other passive GT 430s it also uses a smaller heatsink, which means less hardware conflicts and a better fit in many cases and motherboards.


Puget Systems Professional Advice
Jon Bach (President) Says:
This card is one of the staples of our product line -- good mix of performance and price, and completely silent operation! It gets you modern Fermi technology at a lower power/heat draw.

William George (Customer Service) Says:
This card is a great choice for a home theater PC, if you want an upgrade from the onboard graphics on your motherboard (or if your board doesn't have that feature). It has great video acceleration, plenty of power for basic to moderate 3D applications, and supports DX11, CUDA, and a host of other technologies. The Asus variant we are currently using is also passive (silent!) and fairly small, letting it fit in the majority of cases we carry. I use this in my HTPC now and give it two thumbs up for most non-gaming needs!
