Low profile option is nice as it fits in my Dell Optiplex with no problems at all. Runs with the weak 220W power supply with came that unit. Using DVI and VGA connectors so I cannot say as to how well the HDMI works. Cons: The ribbon cable for the seperate VGA connector could stand to be another inch or so longer. from Newegg.com Other Thoughts: Seemed like the right fit for my Windows HTPC setup. I wish I had bought an nVidia card after purchasing this. The HDMI and DVI are on a half-sized plate with the VGA on a seperate connector, with a full-sized plate adapter (that I didn't notice, initially. Confused the heck out of me at first!). from Newegg.com Pros: Best bang for the buck I've encountered in a video card, and I've been buying them since the days of the Rendition verite 1000 chip. Fan is quiet and heatsink is warm but not hot to the touch during heavy load. from Newegg.com Pros: Slim design will fit any box with a PCI-E slot. Comes with both regular and Slim case brackets. HDMI works great. 7.1 Sound is wonderful too. from Newegg.com Pros: Fast, runs cool, low power, fits in tight spaces, works with the Gateway SX2800, inexpensive. Cons: None Other Thoughts: If you're in the market for a low profile PCI Express video card for a mini-tower computer like the Gateway SX2800 or Dell Inspiron 537s with a little 220-280 watt power supply, this is the video card to get! I tried a few and they were either slow, ran very hot, wouldn't fit, or took too much power. from Newegg.com Pros: Wow, $50 for a card that plays L4D and Titan Quest at high settings at 1280x1024? My company bought me a Dell Optiplex 745 Slimline. It came with an anemic Radeon X1300 (Which would amazingly play the original UT but not much else). I replaced with this to play games after work. from Newegg.com Probably the best choice for slim cases if you want to do some gaming here and there. Low power consumption; does not require a PCIe aux power source. Cons: 7.1 HDMI audio turns off, if the HDTV is turned off. I think thats an ATI driver issue. from Newegg.com High (not max) on most games like Team Fortress 2 and The Sims 2. Runs at a nice FPS as well. Ability to play games is a extra perk because I really bought this so I could hook up my PC to my HD TV in my living room. Works like a charm. from Newegg.com Pros: This is my first ever PCI-Express x16 card and it's not too shabby of a card in the least. This card will play most games at Medium to High settings. from Newegg.com Pros: Pros:- the card was at my front door the next day- free shipping saved me some money-has warranty in case-runs awesome, capable of playing modern games like crysis, L4D, Grid etc-probably the best card of there for 50 bucks! -SWEAT CARD, looks so cute ;) Cons: -had some difficulties installing the drivers (Catalyst Control Center)-a little bit noisy, but its okay. it is not like a plane flying in your room, can handle it-thats basicly all Other Thoughts: It was my first time purchasing video card from newegg, actually my first purchase ever from newegg. I am superb satisfied with newegg. from Newegg.com
