The Video card come with a another bracing for it to be compatible with a low profile case. The default bracket that comes with the video card is a standard bracing for a case.

Question 3

I have already a Gigabyte 1030Gt that works perfectly on my Intel i5 2400 3,1 Gh core 300W model year 2017 and I can run easily X plane 11 2017 at medium settings.
Do you think that my pc will start with a 1050GTX ? (because on the GD web site, it's written 300W and 27 Amps for min power supply...)? Thanks a lot

Accepted Answer

I installed this card in a computer with a 250W power supply and it runs fine - I figured I'd try it and upgrade the PSU if necessary. There are other factors involved though, like your CPU's power consumption, etc., so I can't definitively say whether it will work for you or not.

Question 4

Hi-  would this video card be compatible with a DELL XPS 8700  service tag 7K21T12?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The 8700 is a mATX desktop tower and this card is capable of fitting in slim desktops like my Inspiron 530S.

Question 5

Can you run 4 monitors at one time?

Accepted Answer

8 TV monitors will just display static pictures at a restaurant during business hours. Means that slow starting up will not be an issue. So, I will buy Intel core i5 and two GTX 1050 OC video cards. However, I will get ASUS Prime Z370 mother board.

Question 6

Works in Dell Optiplex 790 Dt?

Accepted Answer

Yes, this card will work. However, be aware the color of your PCI x16 slot in this model determines the maximum wattage the slot is capable of. A blue slot indicates a maximum wattage of 35W while a black slot indicates a maximum wattage of 25W. I could not find any information on Gigabyte's web site as to how much this card draws, just a 300W or higher power supply is recommended. I'm using my card with a 250W power supply that came with an HP 6300 SFF computer and am having no issues.

Question 7

Is this compatible with Dell 0kwvt8 motherboard?

Accepted Answer

Yes, according the motherboard's specs, the PCIe 16X slot is version 3.0, the same version as this graphic card supports.

Question 8

Is a low profile bracket included?

Accepted Answer

Yes, however you'll need to remove the full height bracket from the card and install the low profile bracket. You'll need to remove 3 small Philips head screws and use a small socket or socket driver to remove the DVI standoffs. Takes about 5 minutes.

Question 9

WILL IT FIT DELL VOSTRO 460 ?

Accepted Answer

The Dell Vostro 460 has a version 2.0 PCIe x16 slot. I would not recommend this card for the age of this system.

Question 10

Is this card good to drive a 43 4k tv at 3860x2840 at 60 HZ?

Accepted Answer

It should be able to run the tv if your doing streaming or other video consumption. Applications and any games are pretty much out of the question.
