KenB Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Thankyou so i need a low profile pci-e with full height bracket? That's it George - but you need to make sure that the card will support 2 VGA monitors too. [ dual VGA mode ] ( some cards come with the two sizes of bracket as I have said earlier ) If you find one - post the make and model number and we can help check it out for you :) Quote There is an email going around offering processed pork - gelatin - and salt in a can ......this is simply SPAM !!

georgeriley139 Posted October 26, 2014 Author Posted October 26, 2014 what about a Lenovo quadro fx 370? Quote
KenB Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Hi George I am not at home for a few days and the network I am on is blocking many of the sites I want to visit :( This site suggests that the card you suggest will support 2 VGA Monitors. click here This one shows a small bracket ........does the one you have found have the full-width bracket ?

Plastic Nev Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Hi George, actually as far as I can see that first one only comes with the small bracket plate. The specifications for the quadro nvs 290 however says that it comes with both sizes of plate plus a double output VGA cable. so Ithink that is maybe the best of the two. If possible also make sure you get the one that is X16, rather than the X1 version. I include the specifications that I found for it here, (Ken might wish to see them too) It is a PDF document. http://www8.hp.com/h20195/v2/GetDocument.aspx?docname=c04282621 Nev.

georgeriley139 Posted October 26, 2014 Author Posted October 26, 2014 what about a full height NVidia nvs290? Quote
KenB Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Hi George Everything I have read regarding your system states "Small Form Factor " "Low Profile" I would stick with a low profile card. quadro nvs 290 This card also supports dual monitors. Just remember that you need a full width back-plate. ( ATX bracket ) Quote There is an email going around offering processed pork - gelatin - and salt in a can ......this is simply SPAM !!
