Review: Very Good Workstation Card - I built a high-end graphics workstation for my daughter who is a senior in college majoring in graphics arts. After months of research, weighing price and features of NVIDIA vs.the competition, I decided to go NVIDIA. I run a team that provides modeling and simulation services to the government. All our machines use NVIDIA Quadro cards. All my technicians swear by them. I consulted other professionals and they universally recommended the Quadro series for workstation applications, mostly because of the drivers. That is the big difference with NVIDIA Quadros, their drivers. I then had to decide how much pain to endure in terms of price. I was afraid the 600-series cards would not be powerful enough for life after college and the 4,000 series prices are just cost prohibitive for me personally. As it is, this card was the single most expensive part of the build. Having said all that, I could not be more pleased. The performance on the Autodesk software my daughter uses is outstanding. No hesitation even with her most demanding 3D animation products. I didn't know much about drivers, but there are more to the Quadro drivers than just making the card work. The features and flexibility you get are unmatched in anything you would experience on your average PC. The ability to create multiple virtual desktops for your different process applications is very useful. My daughter can now have a series of applications open and diaplayed on her dual-monitor rig with a set of views for animation, another for photo editing, another for writing, all by loading the desired profile. All the apps load and the displays pop up in the precise location she wants them, all by selecting a saved profile. Buying this card was a good decision and research pays off. Building a workstation for professional use is much different than building a system for home use or gaming. Lastlyy, I had no issues whatsoever installing the card or installing the software/drivers. It worked perfectly the first time I pushed the power button. Review: Good value for features and performance. - I bought this video card for 3D production (modeling and sculpting) and although there are better options available this is a great video card for someone on a budget looking to do modeling . This is NOT a gaming card and you will not be pleased with its performance if that is your intended use. This product has been designed to optimize the viewport of 3D applications and it offers stellar performance for this (considering it is a 2 GB card) as well as having rock solid stability (no crashes). Additionally, it is a low profile card which means it runs at a low temperature which in turn improves stability of all other components in your system and it also has a relatively low power consumption. Great product overall and I am pretty happy with it. ## Features - 1536 CUDA Cores - 4GB GDDR5 GPU Memory - 256-bit Memory Interface with 173GB/s Memory Bandwidth - Two DVI DL and two Display Port 1.2 Outputs - Maximum DP Resolution 3840 x 2160 at 60Hz or 4096 x 2160 at 48Hz - Maximum DVI DL Resolution 2560 x 1600 at 60Hz - Maximum VGA Resolution 2048 x 1536 at 85Hz - Stereo Connector Bracket Included,Full support for all Mac OS X Graphics APIs,Apple Boot Camp Support for Windows or Linux ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00BLTE7DA | | Antenna Location | Professional | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,296 in Computer Graphics Cards | | Brand | PNY | | Built-In Media | NVIDIA Quadro K2000 professional graphics board, DisplayPort to DVI-D SL adapter, DVI-I to VGA adapter, Driver DVD for Windows 8, 7, Vista, and XP SP3 (32- and 64-bit), Printed QuickStart Guide | | Compatible Devices | Desktop | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 3.9 out of 5 stars (59) | | Display Resolution Maximum | 3840 x 2160 at 60Hz | | Global Trade Identification Number | 03536403342098 | | Graphics Card Interface | PCI Express | | Graphics Card Ram | 2 GB | | Graphics Coprocessor | NVIDIA | | Graphics Description | NVIDIA Quadro K5000 with 4GB GDDR5 GPU Memory and 1536 CUDA Cores, supporting up to 4 displays simultaneously a maximum DP resolution of 3840 x 2160 at 60Hz or 4096 48Hz, DVI DL 2560 1600 60Hz. | | Graphics Ram Type | GDDR5 | | Item Dimensions L x W | 7.97"L x 4.38"W | | Item Weight | 0.5 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | PNY | | Memory Clock Speed | 2000 MHz | | Model Name | Quadro K5000 | | Number of Fans | 1 | | UPC | 132017774015 809199903006 172302825510 988319270058 013201134245 803379870706 803982788467 809392575727 806300082995 086000003449 168141640803 751492545028 163121213480 012302282251 | | Video Output Interface | DVI, DisplayPort, VGA | | Video Processor | NVIDIA | | Warranty Description | 3 years | ## Product Details - **Brand:** PNY - **Graphics Coprocessor:** NVIDIA - **Graphics Processor Manufacturer:** NVIDIA - **Graphics Ram Size:** 2 GB - **Video Output Interface:** DVI, DisplayPort, VGA ## Images ![NVIDIA Quadro K5000 4GB GDDR5 GPU Memory Graphics Card for Mac VCQK5000MAC-PB - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51v0RhJhHuL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: will it drive two displays at once?** A: Yes. It actually could support up to 4 displays simultaneously, but there are only 3 connectors: 2x Display port 1.2, and one DVI. DP 1.2 does support more than one displays driven through a single port, but you will need a special adapter that is not included with the K2000. You will get just a DP -> DVI-D adapter, so you can drive up to 3x displays out of the box, but at least one needs to be DP (I assume all have DVI). **Q: Does this require any special kind of motherboard? Is it compatible with the asus sabertooth z87 motherboard? This have same connection as k2200?** A: No, it will work with any motherboard having a PCIe 16x slot - even much older than a Z87. I would not get this one if buying new tho, the K2200 is a completely different beast, out-classing the K2000 by miles and even matching or surpassing the K4000 in some applications.That said, I would not get a Quadro at all if I wasn't looking at specific applications that really benefit from OpenGL drivers.Direct3D applications like AutoCAD, Revit or 3DS Max really really don't care about slow Quadros. You would do fine with a GTX 750Ti. **Q: Is this compatible with a dell xps8700, i5-4430? i want to replace the discreate graphics card. thanks.** A: I have no idea. My purchase for this card was specifically for my Dell T3600 which was in the 'description' of this graphics card. Maybe call Dell support with your question? **Q: What is the difference between this K2000 and the K2000D?** A: OutputsK2000 - 2 display ports 1.2 + 1 DVI-D Dual linkK2000D - 1 mini display port 1.2 + DVI-I dual link + DVI-D dual link ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Good Workstation Card *by M***E on May 11, 2014* I built a high-end graphics workstation for my daughter who is a senior in college majoring in graphics arts.

Quick Cons: First two cards were defective; almost gave up on them. At Christmas I built my wife a new computer with a lot of power and this specialized card she needs for 3D graphics work. I spent a lot of time researching the cards that were compatible with the software, and then cross-referencing them with the prospective motherboards to be as certain as possible that the build would go off without a hitch. The 1st K2000 was DOA. Computer wouldn't even boot with it installed. A week later, with the replacement card installed, the video was crummy and I couldn't install the drivers. I sent that card back for a refund, hesitant to order a third. A couple of days later I called PNY mainly to see if there was a known problem with a recent batch. John, possibly the best tech support guy I have ever spoken with, said there was not and listened carefully to the problems I had. He felt that he probably could have helped me through the aborted driver install on the second card, and promised that if I purchased a third card he would be available to assist me if needed. He also gave me some hints. The conversation with John restored my confidence in PNY so I ordered another card. It arrived Monday and the driver installed with ease. So, the PNY was not without it's trials and tribulations, but I find that's pretty well normal with electronics. Last build I had to send memory sticks back and forth for a while. As Roseanne Rosanna Danna used to say, "It's always something." The two important things to take from this are: 1) Buy from Amazon and send it back if it's defective; 2) PNY support was outstanding and that's really, really important. ## Frequently Bought Together - PNY NVIDIA Quadro K5000 4GB GDDR5 GPU Memory Graphics Card for Mac VCQK5000MAC-PB - Samsung 870 EVO SATA III SSD 1TB 2.5” Internal Solid State Drive, Upgrade PC or Laptop Memory and Storage for IT Pros, Creators, Everyday Users, MZ-77E1T0B/AM - New Low Profile Short Bracket Replacement for NVIDIA Quadro K1200 NVS 510 P400 P600 P620 P1000 K1200 NVS510 T600 T1000 with 2X Screws --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/1432823-nvidia-quadro-k5000-4gb-gddr5-gpu-memory-graphics-card-mac](https://www.desertcart.at/products/1432823-nvidia-quadro-k5000-4gb-gddr5-gpu-memory-graphics-card-mac) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
