you will get output, but the preformance will prob be on par with a lp version of a card.I am wondering if it is possible. In my experience with my RX 6800, I have found the answer to be no, but I don't have anything else to test with.
forgot about that, i remeber older cards would post.Nope, likely to either just not post or give a warning screen that says to plug in the pci-e power connectors.
But why not make the cards power limited to 75W without being plugged in, rather than not posting?Cards check to see if the PCIe grounds are hooked up. If they aren't they won't POST or they will prompt the BIOS to ask you to plug in the cables.
I forgot to plug my GTX980 back in once after some routine maintenance. It told me to plug it in. Might have been m GTX1080, or both.
If you want people to make sure they use the product as intended, then prevent them from using the product not as intended.But why not make the cards power limited to 75W without being plugged in, rather than not posting?
that’s a good point. I still feel like it would be nice for the (admittedly niche) use case of putting a relatively powerful GPU in an office pc with a proprietary power supply, and just using the slots power for the GPU. Pointless, sure, but I would have a use for it.If you want people to make sure you use the product as intended, then prevent them from using the product not as intended.
Imagine a case where someone sort of half plugs in the PEG cables. Or at least enough where it looks like a good connection is made. They boot the computer up, but get crippled performance. Then they go through the rigamaroll of software fixes, maybe report the card doesn't seem to use more than 75W, and people could conclude the person has a bad card.
When in reality, they just needed to push the cables in a bit further.
Proprietary PSUs tend to be proprietary only on the motherboard side, because the system builder designed/made the board so they control it. They can't do proprietary plugs for other things like video cards or storage drives, because they don't make them (video cards from Dell or whatnot are rebadged). So I don't really see a problem there.that’s a good point.

Or the RTX 4000 SFF, but i Don’t understand the point of that card.RTX 3050 6GB is your best bet off the shelf for now.

There are a few Quadro, but probably not what you want to pay for.
SO I have found a fix for games crashing for this error. download and install intel extreme tuning utility. BTW this works for 13th and 14th gen cpus. underclock the p cores. for me i went from x57 to x56 and it started working properly.
