Hi, are you sure this card can be used in China server? If it could, I want to buy it.

Is risky but I talked to my buddy about that best option right now is to open a ticket and ask a GM, from there u can get the correct answer amd if they screw up is their mistake.

Not possible. You need the exact same card model. Can't just be based off the same core. :(

This card uses a standard PCI slot and will assist in helping you build a server. I don't know what Operating System you are planning on using but don't use Windows 2003 server. It dies a good death next summer. I hope this helps.

Yes. This card uses pci express 1.0, while that board supports pci express 2.0, but the newer standard is backwards compatible. This card will work just fine, though a card that supports pci express 2.0 may offer better performance.

Mr. Turner has the right of it. I haven't looked inside the case, but possible problems are not enough space for the new card, and not enough watts from the power supply. Then there is the hassle of upgrading the software drivers. It's not a good idea. It sounds like you want a customized unit. You can go through Dell or find a company that builds to order, or assemble it yourself. Be sure to check out any company that offers customized units. Often the cheapest is not a good idea.

That is a good question. I bought the card for fast data processing instead of gaming, so I would not be a good judge on this one.

I can not answer that question. Check the owners manual, or the size of an existing card.

It should work, however, you won't be able to take advantage of the full bandwidth of the card as it is a PCIe2.0 card.. In other words, you will be paying for features your computer can't exploit. Your dimension has a 305w power supply so it should be able to handle the 300w power supply requirement of the card. If you can find something that is only PCIe1.1 compliant you'll get better bang for your buck.

Most likely, since the card doesnt require any PCI-E power connectors it should work, however most OEM PCs are shipped with the lowest rated PSU that can handle the cpu, drives and memory, i would recommend you check your PSU since its already old, 4 years its a long time for those, because this adds 55W more of required power.PCI-E is backwards compatible all the way to 1.1, so that would not be a problem.

I am not using it in a raid setup but The card is raid compatible. Check the specs. I haven't had any problems.

1. I don't know why you are sending this to me, as I do not work for Komputerbay... If this is the memory that I bought that you are referring to that I stated was great, then you have purchased the wrong memory, as this is server memory, NOT PC memory. You will need to chat with the folks at Komputerbay about a returen, and that is NOT ME. Capeche?

It's possible but, the chances of you running into issues with drivers is greater if you do. Please let us know if you have any other questions.Thank You,ServerMonkey

Hi Tom. For any card to work you need a couple of things: an available slot on your system board of the correct type and drivers that will allow the card to interface with your operating system. If you have these two things it "should" work. I don't know what mean by a "250 watt PCI card".

I would not buy this card, could not make it work and support is terrible. All most any external Raid will be faster than the Software raid on the motherboard. Plus if the board dies, you just move the card to anything that is working and you have your data back. If you have to move software raid to another MB and it is a different version or drivers, it can be an issue. So find a good card and you will have the best of both worlds. I do have some software raids in my office only to archive data to, not for working data. Hope this helps, Cheers

Absolutely no problem. However you do need to make sure that you have a motherboard that has this kind of pci-express slot/support though and if so your good to go just find out from the manufacturer if it does and if not then you know to ask what kind of card slot it does have and order one for that slot. I hope this helps you.
