Most Favorable Review

If you need a SFF card for a Dell

Visiontek Radeon HD 4650 SFF 1GB DDR2 DMS59 (2 x DVI-I, TV Out) w/ 2 x DVI-I to VGA Adapter, 900275
Visiontek Radeon HD 4650 SFF 1GB DDR2 DMS59 (2 x DVI-I, TV Out) w/ 2 x DVI-I to VGA Adapter, 900275

Pros: One of the few cards I have found that can be used to upgrade a Dell Small Form Factor Optiplex 380. Most other low profile cards have fans/sinks that are too big. Does not require its own connection to PC power supply. Comes with a dual monitor cable, and two DVI to VGA adapters.

Cons: None Yet.

Overall Review: Also card is less expensive ordered from NewEgg then from Dell directly.

Most Critical Review

Not the card advertised

iStarUSA RAID-SIL3132-2ES PCIe x1 Host ControllerU SATA II (3.0Gb/s) 2 x eSATA Port Multiplier RAID Controller

Pros: None

Cons: The card that Newegg will ship you is not the card advertised here. Newegg is substituting a low quality generic card made by dataoptics P/N eSATA_PCIe21 for this model. The Dataoptics card is low quality, and the card often locks up and does soft resets that freeze the PC for 1-2 minutes.

Fan only lasts 5 months?

Pros: Works with Dell low profile PCs.

Cons: Cheap fan, have had card for 5 months. fan is making a loud grinding noise, and is not spinning at full speed.

Great Keyboard ruined by cheap keys
