HP 7700 info

Andybtsn · 3 Jun 2008 at 14:10

Guys, I have a a HP 7700 at home with on board VGA. I have two monitors I wanted to hook up to it. Whats the easiest way of going about this? There's one PCI slot on the PC but barely big enough for a gfx card!

Is there any other ways to hook them both up?

Thanks

You can get half height cards that will fit, just be wary of the power requirements.

Do OCUK sell these that you could use as an example?

Thanks

Pretty sure they don't, there are some half height nvidia quaddro cards which suport two monitors I know, almost certainly a matrox card exists too...

Unfortunately OCUK don't sell them, and they are quite a niche product.
A search on google for 'half height' or 'low profile' gfx cards should give you some options.

You haven't said which model you have (sff, usdt), but if you are really struggling check this link:

This lists the official HP options you can purchase from them, and the part numbers.
