A small 160w beauty

anuraj · 9 Feb 2011 at 07:07

I need a low profile gpu for my cousins computer. It has to work with an amd sempron and a 160 w psu. I've been thinking of the asus ati radeon hd 4350 low profile graphics card.

This gpu should work fine with the PSU, Have you confirmed the gpu is faulty or it's a case of have a go nd see how you get on.

I'm pretty sure it's the gpu because other people have had problems with it.

5450 says it needs 650 w psu

anuraj · 9 Feb 2011 at 15:57

Oh yes I will need the vga port available. I have 2 expansion slots.

Massive LOL.

My HD6870 says on the box it needs 500W minimum - yet max draw is 370W.

Somewhat doubt the poxy ultra-low end HD5450 needs 650W

anuraj · 9 Feb 2011 at 16:03

Yes but I need the low profile vga bracket aswell and the 4350 comes with it.

RJC · 9 Feb 2011 at 16:03

400W, but that would be a cheap nasty make, and that is just a recommendation.

Pulls 160w with a overclocked i7 system/

Does it come with both of the expansion slot brackets

anuraj · 9 Feb 2011 at 16:47

I decided on the his one because of the bracket.

anuraj · 9 Feb 2011 at 16:47

Haven't purchased yet though

anuraj · 9 Feb 2011 at 19:24

I'm thinking of the his 5450

Thought the low profile bracket doesn't come with a vga one.

anuraj · 9 Feb 2011 at 21:40

what do you think of the his

RJC · 9 Feb 2011 at 21:44

The HIS shows you can use the VGA with the dual slot bracket.

Edit: http://www.hisdigital.com/un/product2-563.shtml

Or you could use a DVI to VGA adapter with the XFX, which comes with a low profile bracket, I need to double check the box contents.

anuraj · 9 Feb 2011 at 21:46

Yes could you do that please.

RJC · 9 Feb 2011 at 21:50

Play it safe and go with the HIS, as this states it come with a dual slot - low profile bracket.

I found the correct link to the model Ocuk sell.
