PNY NVIDIA Quadro K4000 3GB GDDR5 GPU Memory Graphics Card VCQK4000-PB

This was part of a special build for a motorcycle wheel company. Their custom built Dell died when their roof leaked. I said I could build a PC that would work as well, for half the cost, and have it done in a few days. They were a little skeptical, but trusted me. This system does the CAD drawing for the rims, and sends the CAM results to the cutting machine. This video card was recommended by their software manufacturer.They said their Dell system took 20 minutes to render the result. My system was less than half the cost, looks much much nicer, and renders the results instantly! Needless to say, they said they'd never buy another computer that wasn't built by me. Virtually all of their other computers have had various problems. This one works, works unbelievably well, and has been doing so for about a year now. This card is a big part of that performance!

I was skeptical of the performance benefits of using an Adobe-certified NVIDIA Quadro professional graphics card vs. a consumer/games-oriented model. I used both NVIDIA GeForce and AMD Radeon graphics cards in the past, many of which appear faster on paper than their professional counterpart.I've been running the NVIDIA Quadro K4000 for a month now, and so far I'm stunned at the difference in performance. PhotoShop never crashes anymore. It's immediately more stable, fluid and renders complex effects much faster than before. You'll immediately see the difference when doing Liquify effects, but also Lens Blur, Smart Sharpen, Puppet Warp, etc. all render much better and with speed.As a professional photographer, anything that guarantees less time editing & more time shooting is a good thing.I'm so glad I finally invested in the NVIDIA Quadro K4000 graphics card. My only regret is that I didn't do this sooner!

After I installed this, my video performance went from a 4.4 to a 7.6 (7.9 is the highest rating) for graphics and from 6.1 to 7.6 on gaming graphics.Two things to note - this card requires a PCIe power cable to operate, make sure if you are upgrading you have an available one in your PC. The disk provided with drivers was not sufficient - however the NVIDIA website provided the control console and drivers needed to make this card work perfectly.Well worth the money. I would have given it five stars, except for not knowing in advance about the PCIe requirement and the non-functioning disk. However the card itself is a strong five star product.

I bought this to work with programs like Maya and similar, but on the side I also wanted it to be capable to run games, and it's been really great. I'm not saying it would run every game at full graphics, but it does a great job (even though its not a gtx).

The part didn’t fit my PC I specifically put in SFF and when I returned I was made to pay for the return which is very unethical

I purchased this GPU and then returned it. There was nothing wrong, except that I installed it in a system with another GPU of a different type. I saw no problem with performance, but I was advised by PNY that they do not support the K4000 GPU to be installed in that configuration. So I returned it - end of story.

purchased this graphics card, hired two different engineers and the graphics card never worked. Would like a refund or a store credit.

Don't bother. this is and older video card. There are newer graphic cards that are cheaper and as good.
