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?

        Only mechanically. You could technically remove the small piece of plastic at the end of the slot, and still put a x16 card in a x1 or x4 slot, should work anyways. Some mainboards even have open-ended slots directly instead of closed ended. Haven’t done it and wouldn’t recommend it, but it would technically be possible.

          This was mentioned in another comment already, yet I’m explicitly looking for a “non-invasive” solution.
