Low Profile Dual Head PCI

[cmk]

Hi,
I have a low profile dell machine (about 3 years old) at another location that I want to add a dual monitor card to. It is a skinny machine, so it needs a low profile card.

Anyone know of any decent low profile dual head cards that will fit in here? I have a feeling that it has a PCI and maybe an AGP slot open, both half height. Thanks

I would call Matrox and see what they say (can't really tell from their website): 1-800-361-1408

This might work, more than your looking for being a quad (& price probably).

2.7" (height, including slot connector)

Matrox g550 is low profile, as well as the quad qid.

Also, look on Ebay. Quad Matrox G220 mms cards run about $150. You could also use an Nvidia or ATI PCI card, and they run about $70.

Yeah i dont need a quad card that is more expensive than the machine it is put into...........

maybe the best thing to do is just put in a single video card and use the existing card as well for two monitors.

just what I needed, good price too. Dual monitors out of a low profile card.

Also picked up two of these

Also at a good price, everything works great and looks great.

I would give newegg the thumbs up for good prices and very fast shipping.
