MSI GeForce GT 1030 card?

Given the current lack of any decent GPUs at sensible prices I been looking at cheaper available options that will give me dual monitor output.

How does the MSI GeForce GT 1030 2GB OC card fare for CUDA performance, I did look on the Nvidia site but couldn't see it listed in their desktop section? Given it's replacing the onboard single HDMI output of the motherboard it will likely be an improvement but how does it stack up against, say the 1650 Super?

Thanks Simon, not a great performer then compared to the 1650 :(

I may still get one just to give me the second output and then consider it a half decent hand-me-down to the home PC when the GPU market sorts itself out!

Cheers

I had the GTX960 on this machine before upping to the 1650 Super and it was ok on a couple of instances of Console. used to creak a bit if I added Sky Go to the equation!

Paul, that sounds like a good move. Not perfect as you say, but the market is stupid right now.

Looks like the 1660 super would be less expensive and potentially faster than the 1650 super.
