This graphics card got my attention: https://www.msi.com/Graphics-card/GeForce-GT-1030-AERO-ITX-2G-OCV1
My problem is that my monitor only has a VGA port and I don't want to go with adapters. I also know there IS another VGA version of the GT 1030, but I'd rather go for a bigger fan since it will probably be quieter.
That being said, I can't seem to find anywhere online, and if I do it has DVI instead.

So, what do you think? Is it available? Is it some kind of prototype? It is discontinued? Or is it yet to be released? Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately, it seems to be expensive relative to a normal 1030, and only one seller selling it.

It might be a better idea to get a more powerful card, or a more mainstream 1030, and use an adapter.

Cooling SHOULDN'T be noisy on a 1030 with almost any fan, given that there are passively cooled models, and the card's only got a 30W TDP.

While the title says it has GDDR4 memory, in the specifications it is GDDR5.

Combined with the high price, I think I'll just go for the Zotac VGA model. In my country it's $95 right now, but the minimum low lately was $90. Again, thank you all for the replies!
