a flawless victory for me on evga gtx 1060 ssc , just had to update os to the .4 instead of .2 (last working off igfx) install the nvidia drivers and reboot. didnt have to change my clover plist or anything else (thank god, i think i spent over a week trying to get my on board 5.1 audio to work. lots of forum searching and kext experimentation)

Just ordered a Quadro P400 from Amazon to test with. If it doesn't work, I'll return it. If it does work, I'll return it and get a P1000.

P400 arrived this morning, and I can report that it works great. I had updated my Nvidia Web Drivers prior (to 378.05.05.05f02) so all I had to do was remove my GTX 745 and install the Quadro P400.

I will be ordering a P1000 very soon and once I get it installed and confirmed working, I will return this P400. Overall, very happy to have new single-slot, low profile offerings!

Good to know Quadro pascal cards work too!

Can confirm, Quadro P1000 works as well. Check here for more info/details on the P1000.

Can you confirm that all ports works at the same time? AKA triple monitor

Titan Xp works and installs just fine. All I had to do was install the card and done. I don't use HW Monitor so I didn't have to remove it. This should last for quite a while.

Don't you have the screen flickering issue after waking from sleep? I have the same card but I cannot for the life of me figure out what the issue is, and others started posting it as well. If you wake up from sleep and open firefox or anything else, within 2 minutes everything becomes glitchy.

Sorry, all I can confirm at this time is that 2 monitors work. Don't have a third (or fourth) to try.

It's no problem, thanks for getting back to me.

A P400 would make a great (modern) low power option in a Xeon build.

Yes it would. The form factor and outputs are what did it for me, considering I don't game on my Mac. I think the price is quite reasonable for the P400 as well. If I stuck with an i5 and 16GB RAM, I probably would have kept my P400 or even got a P600. With an i7 and 32GB RAM, I wanted to max my GPU offering just because. That was my only reason for going with the P1000.
