I own a dell optiflex 745 SFF (small form factor) but i badly need to upgrade for the simple on board graphics.
What I thought was a simple job has now turned into a mission. Because of the size of the case I need a low profile card. I wan't to use the card for streaming to my tv which has HDMI and a PC in slot. The other problem other than the height of the card is the PSU which is only 275w.
so my needs are ;-
graphics card low profile,
HDMI out,
allows sound to travel through the HDMI to my TV set,
can work with a low PSU ( cant find one that fits the case any bigger than 275w)
I read around and alot of people said you dont have to be spot on the dot with the wattage of the card , some bigger will work fine.
anything around £20-£40 would be my budget so 2nd is OK with me.
any links to cards would be greatly appreciated.
I don't game or any fancy graphics or video editing, the PC is for the kids and movies so hence a better card is badly needed.
