Folks,

I am desperately looking for a low profile card with decent gaming performance (not stellar, just decent). The only ones listed at pricewatch are MX200's and ATI Rage series parts. I have a faint memory of reading about a Low Profile Radeon 7500, though I can't locate one anywhere.

Anybody with thoughts/ideas/information?

Much thanx.

This is a great question. Good for some of the small PCs that people are making! Help him answer this?

Folks,

Have a look at this article Anybody know where to get the LP Radeon 7500's mentioned here? The AOpen website has no mention, and I can't find the Jetway website.

cheers.

The creative geforce 2 mx (ddr version) was very small, how big has it got to be.

I think the Low Profile form factor is about half the height of normal cards. Both the card and the bracket (the face plate where one plugs in the monitor cable, etc) have to be smaller. There are a couple of pictures of the LP Radeon in the middle of the Digit-Life article above.

Any help much appreciated.

:confused:

Folks? Any help?

PS: Is there some other forum where you might recommend I should post my question?

Thanx for the info. Does anyone know if the Powercolor brand is any good? Personally, I haven't ever read any reviews/comments on Powercolor boards (but then again, I am a newbie) :)
