Now I've managed to obtain a picture of the card to be replaced, I need to find a suitable replacement for this:

It needs to support dual monitor, even if it uses one of those funny DVI/VGA splitters you get with the new Dell Optiplex, I have loads.
 
What do you need the card for? What's the budget? What power supply do you have?

If it's not for any gaming the a HD6450 will do the job for £30, and won't draw much power.

It not for gaming, just to allow dual monitor. The PC is a Philips Freeline, but the replacement card needs to be have the expansion backet at 1/2 the height of the normal/standard cards.
 
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-309-SP&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=1985 - if you can fit a 2 slot card in. Has low profile brackets pictured.

Otherwise maybe this - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-149-MS&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=1711 which came with low profile brackets when I bought one a while ago.

This one has suitable brackets pictured too - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-271-AS&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=1711

A lot of "low profile" cards don't come with low profile brackets annoyingly. :(

edit : Actually, even though the Asus 6450 doesn't mention low profile brackets in the details, or have any pics - looks like they are included, at least in this video..?
