Most Favorable Review

Compute and VDI on the budget.

Radeon Pro WX 4100 100-506008 4GB 128-bit GDDR5 Low Profile Workstation Video Card
Radeon Pro WX 4100 100-506008 4GB 128-bit GDDR5 Low Profile Workstation Video Card

Pros: Power consumption is no more than 50w which is really good. Works with pretty much any Rack Server of either HP, Dell, SuperMicro, or even Cisco UCS Fits in pretty much any case. (comes with a Standard Bracket too) Not loud when fired up at 100% Does REALLY good for Home Lab VDI GPU Sharing in XenServer Can Map a single VDI to each Video output on the card with UnRaid Server 6 and run 4 Desktops from 1 machine.

Cons: if ran at 100% for more than 15 minutes it will be too hot to touch. But the built in fan does very good at keeping it within its temp range. Drivers for Linux are a literal pain for installing. Windows is fine, XenServer and UnRaid 6 are fine as well. Can not do VGA Analog without a crazy converter. Only runs at PCIe8x (not sure if its a con really since it doesn't need to run at 16x?) (could be a con) the Color Blue?

Overall Review: Overall this is a very good card for the price. For what i bought the card for it works excellent. Which is to provide Shared GPU Performance for a VDI Home Lab. For the Crypto Miners don't bother, it can really only do about 4-5Mh/s when mining ETH or about 130 H/s for ZCash I run Crypto Miners on new video cards to stress test them and break them in. This one does OK but your not going to make a fortune over night with this card.
