   I bought this for an Inspiron 3647 running Windows 10 and it took me ELEVEN hours to figure out how to install it…because I’m a noob. Solution is in last paragraph if you don’t want to read about my trials and tribulations.

   My pc has only VGA and HDMI for monitor output, and the HDMI quit working. I wanted to have a dual monitor setup and I had an empty PCIe slot, so I figured I’d get a graphics card. My main monitor was VGA and I was hoping to get the 2nd (an old monitor I brought from work so I could work from home during the COVID-19 pandemic) into HDMI. Got the card inserted into the slot and powered everything back up. BLACK SCREEN!!! Not even the integrated graphics VGA worked! I had no clue what to do! I powered down, took the graphics card back out and was able to see via the VGA again.

   The product did not come with a cd for the driver, so I went to the NVIDIA website to download it. Got the .exe going, but it wouldn’t let me run the install wizard because it couldn’t detect the card. (Nooo duhhh…because I had to take the card out to even SEE how to get to the website to download the driver!!!) Only the integrated graphics showed up under display in Device Manager.

   I thought that maybe my HDMI cable was bad so I tested them out with the laptop. They worked great. Turns out the old monitor from work was no good. Back to the drawing board. I scoured tons of forums for solutions and pored over them for hours.

   One solution was to boot up in safe mode and enable the PCIe slot in BIOS. So, I go to BIOS and there is absolutely NOTHING about graphics, video interface, northbound or southbound (or whatever it is) settings…NOTHING. Spent about an hour trying to read up on BIOS and where else it could possibly be. Couldn’t find a thing. So I decided to look up if I should update my BIOS. After all, I was running version A04. I got conflicting answers about whether or not I should – this did not really help me at all.

   I tried to find out how I could even update the BIOS…I didn’t know where to go. My search led me to Dell’s website, where I input the service code of my pc and it showed me about 11 different updates it needed to do – one of which was a BIOS marked URGENT! Matter of fact, it was wanting to update to BIOS version A11!!! No WONDER I was having trouble! Intel’s website told me, if I understood it correctly, that I could not use an external graphics card in addition to the integrated graphics card…that only one would be active. That bummed me out because in order to make the graphics card fit, I had to take off the VGA port and install it with the smallest bracket, which only left me with HDMI and DVI. I was hoping to use the integrated VGA and the HDMI on the new graphics card.

   Solution: I updated my BIOS to the latest version, enabled Intel Multi-Display in BIOS, and was then able to continue the NVIDIA control panel installation, which enabled my new graphics card. I was also able to use the integrated VGA AND the HDMI on the new graphics card with no trouble! Hopefully, this poor sap is able to help another poor sap out. 🙂

   Con: My only con (other than the legwork required for me to install it – but that is most likely due to my pc being old) is that the fan is noisier than I expected.

   Bought it @ SG$31.26 – even cheaper than that in amazon.com. Experienced screen freeze/ lockup with default ubuntu driver (nouveau). System still working (can ssh from elsewhere) when that happened. Setting nofbaccel etc wouldn’t help. After some googling, installed nvidia-driver-450 (so called official blob driver from nvidia) and so far (4 days since) system has been working fine… Keeping fingers crossed :X

   Read all the reviews and was concerned about compatibility but this video card was the only one that appeared to fit the specifications for the Acer small SFF fit.
   Observations: used in a Windows 10 Build 1909 desktop. All security and cumulative updates installed. Many reviews (here and other sites) said that the card was not Windows 10 compatible. I purchased and installed to see what would “really” happen. Boot process was nominal but slow due to the hard wired AMD 45 Series Dual Core E1-1500 APU (CPU/GPU combo) on the motherboard and the installation of the generic Windows 10 driver updates. Once it finished loading the Windows 10 Basic Video Driver (2006 version), the computer stabilized nicely and performed within MB specifications (it’s most definitely NOT a gaming rig). The video card also fixed a persistent onboard GPU heat stress problem (95° C/197° F) that used only a passive heat sink (I had previously pulled the sink, applied new thermal paste with absolutely no improvement) by automatically disabling the onboard GPU and automatically enabling the PCIe 2.0 x16 expansion slot as I’d hoped and expected. Then I loaded the latest Nvidia driver for GeForce GT 710 2G3D LP series cards (with fan) from the Nvidia website (per the MSI website directions). There was absolutely no problems installing & running the 64-bit version of the driver. I also updated the Windows 10 basic video driver (2019 version) as backup (for MB GPU; no plans to use it unless there is a catastrophic failure of the MSI card).
   Conclusion and recommendation: Another quality product from MSI. Don’t hesitate to use this card on older desktops that have an onboard fixed GPU as a viable upgrade solution. The low profile (LP) kit comes with the pictured default standard full height bracket (4.2 inches). There are also two LP brackets (3.118 inches) that can be substituted (like I did) requiring two LP slots if you need to use the VGA 15-pin socket. The Dual-link DVI and HDMI connectors are paired to the primary bracket; the VGA connector tied via the ribbon cable to the video card board and is secured on the second bracket using the existing video plug female fasteners. I did not test the DVI or HDMI connectors as the monitor my client uses is VGA only, so I can’t comment on usability/compatibility or any issues that may occur.

   This is my go to for low cost gaming computer builds. Serious gamers can upgrade to something more expensive, but this works well for most people

   My Acer Aspire TC-885-ACCFLi5O desktop had integrated graphics that were less than optimal for even basic video watching. Glitchy video playback was concerning, so I purchased this card to put into the PCI-express slot.

   I purchased this card knowing it was low-profile, which was good. It fit right into the case and snapped in without issue. No need to connect anything beyond that and the whole process took 5 minutes.

   The card ships with a driver CD. I installed the drivers and the additional software on the CD but ended up removing the additional software as it related to overclocking and I didn’t need it.

   I like this card as it costs less than fifty bucks and boosts the overall video performance of PCs with integrated graphics. This 2GB card is better than most of the 1GB cards at around the same price point and provides users with the option to have a dual monitor setup. (I’m using the HDMI port and so far, it works great.)

   If you need a cheap card for a system that has integrated graphics, this is one to consider.

    Nachdem meine Grafikkarte von meinem altem Computer defekt war , habe ich eine ähnliche hiermit gefunden. Kann ich für ältere Computer empfehlen.
