Question 1

Would I need an amd motherboard & cpu for this to function on my computer? Or will this work with an intel motherboard and cpu?

Accepted Answer

This card works for both Intel and AMD setups. All GPUs will work with either vendor as long as you have a motherboard that supports PCI express. Make sure you have a power supply that can handle the GPUs too; luckily this one draws the power from the board itself so you can use it with a low end/stock one.

Question 2

I want to buy a GPU for 80 ~ 100 $ . It will be for 4 GB RAM and a Core 2 Duo e7500 2.93 GHz. I heard that the fans are bad. Is this true? Are there other truested GPU brands that sell the 1 GB GDDR 5 version of HD 7750 at such price?

Accepted Answer

I have not experienced any problem with it. I have been running it in my system for almost 2 years straight it doesn't get shut off it just gets rebooted and I have not had one problem with it.
 I hope this helps your decision I find it to be a great card for the smaller application housing. if you have a full size case I would recommend using a different card, but as far as price and performance go this really is a great card.

Question 3

what are the power requirements/usage of this card?

Accepted Answer

This is a very good card I installed it in my Media Center. it draws power from the motherboard and does not draw power directly from the power supply, I'm running it with a ASUS Z77  Motherboard , Core i5 3.5Ghz CPU , 8GB 1600 memory , 500GB SSD and a 350 watt Corsair power supply I have all of this hooked up to a Samsung 46" 3D TV, I had it for about a year now and everything seems to be working very well. if you are interested in buying this card I do recommended it for Media and not for gaming.

Question 4

i have a dell inspiron 531  with a 600w power supply will this fit my computer?

Accepted Answer

Well, it fits my superfly case just fine. One of the smallest graphic cards of its power that will. Don't know the overall dimensions offhand, but I think it's shown on the AMD Radeon site or the HIS site.

Question 5

i have an hp slimline series desktop, is this the mini one? or is there a mini one out there?

Accepted Answer

This will fit your case, it comes with the low profile bracket. Im currently using this card in the Antec Minuet350 case which is a slim case so you should be fine. Be sure that you have a pci-e x16 slot and hopefully a 250w or bigger psu

Question 6

Should I get the 1 or 2 GB version?

Accepted Answer

If you are looking at this card you will be gaming or mining with it I assume. In either case you will need the fastest memory available and plenty of it. Don't cheap out. You would regret it.

Question 7

will this work on a dell inspiron 660 mini tower 300w psu?

Accepted Answer

It will fit but like the other guy said your psu is iffy cause oem psus cant always be trusted and the older they get the less power it produces but it can run on 300w i have a friend thats running it on a 280w with no problems plus it draws less than a gt 630 which is rated 300-350w so its up to you

Question 8

Will this card be compatible with my HP DC7900 Small Form Factor PC?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I believe I have the same case, it's hp sff anyway. Had to use the included bracket, which takes up two slots in the back of the case. kind of a snug fit, but it works fine!

Question 9

Will this interfere with the PCIe x1 slot nearby which is occupied already?  I have  ASUS A78M-E FM2+ AMD A78 MOBO. The first fan in the picture sticks out and I a worried that the two cards will be mutually exlusive.

Accepted Answer

The fan extends well into the slot next to it, figure on this POS card being a 2 card width card.
IMO don't buy it anyway, the fans are junk and die very fast and can NOT be upgraded.

To be fair, I've yet to see ANY low profile 7750-based card that did NOT extend well into the next slot, and don't remember seeing any fullsize 7750 based cards that were legitimate "one slot wide" cards.

Question 10

Looking to buy a graphics card to use in Minecraft gaming.  Does this one work - directx 9.0 shader model 3.0 is what Minecraft is telling us that is the minimum?

Accepted Answer

Yes my daughter has this installed in here machine and it plays minecraft fine.  She plays Skyrim at medium graphics settings as well. 1600x900 monitor.
