The ASUS GeForce GT 730 is a passively-cooled, single-slot graphics card designed for quiet computing environments and multi-monitor productivity. Powered by NVIDIA's Kepler architecture with 384 CUDA cores and 2GB of GDDR5 memory, this card delivers reliable performance for office applications, multimedia playback, and light computing tasks. With a 902 MHz core clock (927 MHz in OC mode) and 64-bit memory interface running at 5010 MHz, it provides a theoretical memory bandwidth of 40.10 GBps.

This compact card features passive cooling technology for completely silent operation—perfect for home theater PCs, multimedia centers, and quiet office builds. The single-slot design ensures compatibility with other PCIe peripherals and allows multiple cards to be stacked in a system. ASUS's Auto-Extreme manufacturing technology enhances reliability through automated soldering in a single pass, reducing thermal strain and environmental impact. The latest GPU clock frequency profile delivers 17% lower power consumption compared to previous iterations, making it ideal for ultra-compact rigs and low-power systems.

Connectivity includes one native HDMI 1.4a port, one dual-link DVI-D port, and one D-Sub (VGA) port, supporting up to three displays simultaneously for enhanced multitasking. The card supports DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.4, with a maximum digital resolution of 3840×2160 (4K). It requires no external power connectors and operates within a 300W recommended PSU. Bundled software includes ASUS GPU Tweak II for intuitive performance tweaking and system monitoring.
