On the scrounge
Jan. 23rd, 2006 07:09 pmDoes anyone have a low profile PCI graphics card going spare?
The old PC I've picked up has very slow integrated graphics, and almost anything is going to be an improvement. I'm also not really interested in 3D performance, but the ability to do 1280x1024 x 24 bit would be good.
Unfortunately, the dinky form factor (it's smaller than the microATX case of my new PC) means that a normal height PCI card won't fit: it bangs against the floppy drive when you close the case.
I can swap for a TNT2-era AGP card...
