This review is from: NVIDIA Quadro NVS 450 by PNY 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express Gen 2 x16 Quad DisplayPort or DVI-D SL Profesional Business Graphics Board, VCQ450NVS-X16-DVI-PB (Personal Computers)
Owned many of these units. Comes with adapter cables, Caution if you buy a lower priced item either here or elsewhere, as it might not come with the adapter cables. The item sold and shipped by Amazon DOES come with the adapter cables. Caution about trying to save money and buying the previous model (440)USED, if you plan on going Windows 7, as you might run into campatability issues. P.S.for those new to multi-screen cards, this is not for 3D gaming.

i was using a Matrox quad video card before this one. It died because the fan died on it. I switched to Nvidia because it supported Windows 7 at the time and Matrox didnt. The first card worked and then suddenly quit supporting the multiple screens and finally it was down to 1 monitor it would recognize. I have 4 of the same exact monitor models. I returned the card and got another one. This one worked for about 9 months and then just recently died and again down to 1 screen. I question the quality of the software for this product and the drivers. I think the ATI chipset works better and isnt worth the headaches of Nvidia.

Purchased "Used - Like New" PNY Technologies NVIDIA Quadro NVS 450 board and cables only. There was one offered for $40 less without cables. There are both active and passive DisplayPort to DVI adapters. To ensure that I got the correct cables ordered the one with cables.
Cables
======
Four Hewlett-Packard - 481409-001 - DisplayPort to DVI Adapter cables were included with NVS 450 graphics board. Markings on cables: HPK-481409-001(A) VER 3 FOXCONN 1045. The best price that I could find for similar cables was more than the $40 that I paid for them with the graphics board. The NVS450 has two GPUs. Install the cables as stamped under the card connectors which is 1-4-2-3. Monitor Cable 1 goes to GPU 1. Skip a connector then attach Monitor Cable 2 to GPU 2. Monitor Cable 3 goes to the next connector which is also GPU 2. Monitor cable 4 goes to GPU 1. Using this arrangement Monitor 1 will have its own GPU if you install up to 3 monitors.
