Hey all,
I’m running a DIY-built server on a J5040-ITX Link to the manual (PDF-Download), which features a PCIe x1 slot which I’d like to utilize with a graphics card. I found the Nvidia GT 730 2 GB which would fit, but I’m unsure, if it…
… works with nouveau, as I’m unable to find the GT 730, only the GT 730M in the list of codenames.
… if OMV (currently running OMV 7, going to upgrade to OMV 8 soonish) aka. Debian 12 (or 13, depends on OMV version) supports the proprietary driver.
Any ideas or recommendations?
I think your bigger problem with that board is going to be that PCIe slot is a PCIe 2.0 x1 slot so it will be slow but you can just use an adapter like this:

Flexible versions exist too! I’m also not sure you would get a lot of benefit out of a GT730 really so YMMV.
I know, that’s why I don’t even bother with looking for a more beefy card.
