Small Graphics Cards.

[Belso]

Im in need of a small size graphics card, needs to be PCI-E.

Its around half size height of a normal one.

Reason for it is, a (Competitor) media system graphics card died, and we need to replace it.

But its half the height of a normal one, and so is the metal plate




So if anyone knows anyone who does this kinda stuff then please let me know.

Thanks.

I'm not big on graphics so when I recently upgraded I bought a
Club3D Radeon X300SE 128MB HM

It came with two half height Back Plates ( one for DVI and one for the D-SUB the D-SUB is on a ribbon cable )


Let me know what kind of spec card you are after and I'll check the stock and see if they are half height

[Belso]

Are they simple to change?

The old card was infact a X300, code (R37L-SC2D) so it does look like thats the card i need.

Could you possible have a look for me and see if its easy to remove and change?

[Firerat]

yeah no problem

Basically the back plate is held on with the Fittings that you screw the cable into, so all you need to do is undo them with a small spanner/socket set/ thin nose pliers, then fit the half height back plate

not many left :shock: so hurry

[Belso]

Can you easily remove the VGA from the card?

[Firerat]

yeap, you can just unplug it, or fit it in the extra Back Plate to the side if you have space
