NVIDIA GRID K520 8 GB GDDR5

The NVIDIA GRID K520 is a fanless graphics card built for virtualised desktop and remote-workstation deployments. Eight gigabytes of GDDR5 memory provide the frame-buffer capacity needed for multi-user GPU sharing. The PCI Express 3.0 x16 interface fits standard server slots without extra power cables.

PCIe 3.0 x16 bandwidth ceiling

The card operates on a PCI Express 3.0 x16 link, limiting host-to-GPU throughput to the bandwidth of that generation. Workloads that stream large textures or datasets across the bus will saturate the interface before the GPU compute units become the bottleneck. System planners should match workload profiles to this ceiling.

Upgrade from earlier GRID K-series boards

Moving from a GRID K1 or K2 to the K520 doubles the on-board memory to 8 GB and removes active cooling, reducing acoustic noise and failure points in dense racks. The jump is worthwhile when user density or per-session graphics memory demands exceed the limits of the older models.

Questions about this item

Will the fanless design fit in a standard server chassis?

The card uses a PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot and has a fanless cooler. Verify the chassis height and airflow clearance before installing.

Is a low-profile bracket supplied for slim cases?

No low-profile bracket is included. The card ships in an anti-static bag inside a plain box without additional mounting hardware.

What workloads suit 8 GB of GDDR5 memory on this board?

The 8 GB frame buffer supports multi-user virtual desktop sessions and light GPU-accelerated compute tasks in density-optimised environments.
