I'm in need of a graphics card that can serve as a display adapter. Specifically, I'm looking for NVIDIA options that are similar to the GT710 but still receive updates with the latest drivers. Any recommendations?

If your goal is just to add more display outputs without needing gaming performance, consider a DisplayLink adapter. But keep in mind that it can use up CPU resources doing virtual display outputs, so a proper GPU or display controller would be better.
Definitely look at the GT1030 or Quadro P400 if you want support, but keep in mind that driver support for these may taper off soon. Another option could be the Intel Arc A310, which is fairly recent and can be found for a price similar to the GT1030.
Isn't the GT710 still supported? You shouldn't have any trouble using it. But if you're looking for something newer, the GT1030 is a good choice, though importing the GT1010 can be pretty pricey since it's mainly in China.
You might want to check out the GT1030 since it has driver support and is a solid upgrade from the GT710.
If you're considering using both integrated and dedicated GPUs, just be cautious about brand compatibility. Using different brands can limit driver support. For newer drivers, look into Turing architecture GPUs and beyond, like the Quadro P400, which has versatile outputs and is supported with the latest drivers.
