Full height,

Low profile or half-height,

Full height will fit in any standard ATX case, whereas the low profile cards are made for a case similar to this,

Re: Major Graphics Card Issue

Yeah, are those PCIx1 cards good for play..beter than just the pci CARDS?

You ought to look at your manual, or if you know how do a dxdiag report & post so someone can see if you have a PCI-E x16 slot or a AGPx4/8

basic PCI card will get you there but the above will be better.

Re: Major Graphics Card Issue

if you go to dell's website, you'll see slim/mini tower/full tower cases. and yes, there could be some compatibility issues if you get a slim card and try to plug it into a standard case/mobo arrangement.

if i were you, i would buy a new mobo and migrate the parts into the new mobo. you can probably keep the same dell case. you can get an x850xt pe on ebay for ~$43 (I bid $42 and lost) and a decent (not great, but decent) mobo can be had new for $60 or $70 dollars.

that would make you a happy fps gamer for pretty cheap. x1950 pro's can be had for $100, and that would be your next upgrade for incredible (budget) performance.

Re: Major Graphics Card Issue

Thank You All for your Support and advice, im going to continue to look out for these graphics card so i can play this great game!

And Im low on budget for now, until I get a job or what not, so maybe buyinf a new mobo isnt good now, but i WILL plan on buying when I have the money. But for the time being I would just like a good card for the comp that I have, that can play BF2 and I can have fun doing just that

So, owverall the x1500 would be good with my 2 PCI slot and one PCIex1 comp?
