This card says "Low Profile", will this card work for desktop or is it cut down short for the compact machines. or both brackets supplied ?Thanks, V

This card will most definitely work on any desktop with a 16x pcie port. In this case the concept of "Low Profile" relates more to performance than to form factor.

Yes, it comes with two small brackets so you can use all the ports on a smaller desktop.However again that will need two open ports in the back of your desktop. It also comes with a large bracket for larger desktops.

If you mean different form factors like full tower mid tower and mini then yes. i have a full tower case. it Will work as long as its PCI slots. they do wiggle around anyway. hopefully that sheds some light.

I have used this card in other Optiplex models with 1/2 height slots and Windows 7. No problems whatsoever. Your success, or lack of it, might have more to do with the device you are connecting than this card. The card seems to provide a standard LPT port for Windows but the other device driver may or may not work properly with it.

I use mine for A5 and C6 cards, for smaller intricut pieces try a sample with slower speed, hope this helps

From all appearances, the product you linked has a "stacked" configuration that can be used in a low profile situation, as well as the two power connectors are different, this card has the standard 4 pin molex, and the other has a SATA connector for power. The differences in chipset appear to be negligible.

This card supports both pin formats. The card is 1/2 height, and so should fit in any desktop pc.

No this card is not a Low profile, matter of Fact you need 2 regular profile slots for this to fit

If you mean the short versus the longer slots (X1 or X 16) it doesn't matter.It is only going to draw the power that it needs because the connectors are only going to connect in a X1 (short slot) mode. The main issue is that you connect the card to an internal power supply, either the Molex connector or the SATA style connector; whichever one will fit. My suggestion is to install it in one of the X1 (short) slots and save the longer slots for something like a video card. Windows 7 will find drivers for it but it's a good idea to use the driver disk that came with it. You're not going to get super blazing speed unless you have some super blazing adapter or protocol installed which most USB 3.0 devices do not have. However, I have been very happy with this device even though I know I'm not going to get the full throughput that is commonly advertised for USB 3.0. You have to read the advertisements carefully because they say UP TO 400+ megabits per second.

There are a few considerations: size, power consumption, and port availability. First make sure you have a PCI express port (which most modern computers have and I assume a slim line would have one too). This is a half profile card so it should fit in most smaller computers and only take up one slot space. Finally: power consumption. Small computers usually have less than a 300 watt power supply. The card at maximum uses about 30 to 40 watts. You should be OK as long as you don't have a lot of other energy draining peripherals in the system such as multiple hard drives, optical drives, etc. I can't guarantee it will work but I would say probably. It is cheap enough to try.

im not sure it looks like your pc takes low profile expanion cards. You could buy a usb wirless network ant for your pc and it would work the same as having a card. here is a link to a good brand. just make sure you have a wirless router so that you will be able to connect to it.

If yours is the mini tower (leftmost in this picture: http://en.community.dell.com/resized-image/__size/550x0/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/3514/2806.Opti-745.JPG)...that card will fit fine. In fact, it doesn't have to be a low profile card like that. Any full size card will also fit. The only issue would be length if the room in the case is limited by a drive bay or something else.

Yes low profile graphics card or may be easier or better to use a USB card.

It's just like most anything else made for the PC ( such as any high-end vid card ) the bracket is standard size but the card is a low profile card.

My card came with a low profile bracket, so I needed to order the full height bracketStandard Full Height Bracket for IBM ServeRAID M1015 M5014 M5015 / HP Smart Array

The seller sent me low profile adapters with mine. Might want to contact seller before it ships to make sure they put the adopters with the card. I have mine in a small form factor Dell and works great. Win7
