What GPU is this? (with pics)

[giantpinkbunnyhead]

I found this GPU in a friend's computer that's been broken for some time. Looking at the card, I'm sure it's probably some old POS card considering it doesn't even have a cooling fan. But curiosity begs me to wonder, what IS it exactly?

Thanks in advance!

Looks to be a X300 (I did a search of the p/n)

fancy pants! not even sure how to do that myself. I think I saw an X300 looking like that as well.

Isn't it supposed to be an X300/X550 or something like that?

X300 huh? Dang, I've never even HEARD of that. Sounds like an old ATI card.

That's because I think its hard to find out in a box. They are normally inside desktops that you buy from Dell, HP, etc.

It is a x300SE 128mb pulled from a company computer as mentioned above. Reason I know is because I just bought the exact card from the forums for $20 shipped. I needed a cheap PCI-E backup card and figured this is as cheap as it gets so I bit. It will run games(1-2 years or older) fine with lower res and medium settings and should be playable. Don't expect anything newer to run on it(and it be playable anyway) and look good.

The one I bought was pulled from a Dell.
