Half Height Graphic Cards

[timbo343]

Im in need of a graphics card that is half the height of a normal graphics card to fit in a slim chassis PC. It can either be PCIx or PCI. Im wanting to output to 2 monitors but NEC have shipped a crappy PCIE graphics card which will only let you select either the onboard or the PCIE card. The card only needs to be a 64Mb, nothing too powerful as its for a machine at work.

Thanks in advanced.

We sell a couple of cards that are half height and dual output? Is VGA and DVI ok or no good?

I have one here I bought a couple of weeks ago off eBay and didn't use (turns out I needed a full-height one after all). I've got no use for it, you're welcome to it. ATI chipset, PCI Express, single DVI output - I have a spare DVI/VGA converter if you need one. PM me your address and I'll try and get it posted this afternoon if you want.

I just bought a XFX GeFORCE 8400GS (256MB) from Ebuyer for not very much. You need to buy the bracket seperatly mind. As I am cheap I bought the older 84p bracket from Scan and 'adjusted' it with a file to fit around the DVI connector

You would need a second adapter plate to be able to use both the DVI and VGA (DVI and S-Video are on the same plate).

Just get a DVI -> VGA convertor, they're cheap and easy enough to fit and do the job plenty well enough... Got 3 in the box I'm using right now

ok, for my next stupid question. anyone know of any dvi-d to vga cables? i can only only dvi-i cables :S

You can buy them from most pc shops just an adapter that you plug into the dvi port and then the vga into that.

Or you can probably get a lead that is vga to dvi allready.

DVI-D is digital only, if you have a DVI-D port it can only output to a DVI device.

DVI-I outputs a digital and analogue signals hence you can only get DVI-I to VGA cables.
