I currently have a PCI-e x16 Nvidia card with 2x DVI output, which I want to keep. However I'm looking to connect my PC to my new 32" TV with HDMI input for video and audio (both).

Without replacing my existing card (expensive) and with only PCI x1 slot remaining is it possible to do this?
 
I hope this is alright since it is a US etailer and not a place where you would be able to purchase from in the UK.

If it is a problem, please let me know and I will remove the link. I'm just trying to be helpful for the OP.

This is a list of Newegg's PCI-E x1 GPU offerings. Maybe you can find similar models in your location, or at least now you can know what you are looking for?

And that will work alongside my existing card without an issue? Thanks.
 
Maybe, the OP will have to clarify. Often when people say they have one slot free, they are also referring to the physical space in the case.

I was operating under the assumption the OP wants to keep his current card, has a free pcie slot available, and limited space for a full size graphic card.

Either way, it's obvious he wants to add a second card to his existing setup. Whether limited to single slot or dual slot, i think my original post is still valid.

PCIe x1 means the shorter PCI-e connector (about 1 inch) which is generally used for wifi cards etc.
