Question 1

Hi, curious if this would fit into Mini-Box's M350 mini-ITX case. I am trying to make a dual graphic system with A8-7600. Does it's low profile bracket make it smaller enough to fit in the case such as M350?

Accepted Answer

Yes its about half the size.

Question 2

Is this really great for gaming? It's got a lot of VRAM, so I'd figure this would do great in video rendering/video games.

Accepted Answer

DDr3 runs slower than DDr5 thus four gigs of DDr2 is the same speed as 2 gigs of DDr5 with that being said its fast, if you compair to the xbox one for gamming its slow the xbox one has eight gigs of DDr5 thus with that being said using for games it will have to work hard, eight cores x86 and eight gigs of ddr5 its hard to say that four gigs of ddr3 is going to do the trick as far as games. if you have an eight core amd fx chip or an a8 or even better A10 working with this unit you might have playstation four effects becoues the corssfire thats built into this unit will work with the HD 7000 or 8000 intergrated apu in the A10 amd chip. theres also a DDR5 four gig card on newegg.com that runs 4 gigs at 128 bit of DDR5 thats in the same price range, now that card does not have sli ablity or crossfire intergrated so uprgrades will have to consider removing or running dual geforce cards non sli, this chip will be able to use crossfire in what type im waiting on my question to be asked, this will work for you if your rocking AMD, and have at least 8 gig ram, with an A8 or higher using the intergrated pci crossfire to work with the apu radeon hd 4000 or higher depending the modle A AMD, the way they are making chips different will set AMD ahead in the furture, intel is banking on one chip bridge design and AMD is working on fx, A, ect to design chips for different needs, hope that helps....

Question 3

I know after reading into it that some of the pci e 3.0 x 16 cards are NOT compatible with a 1.0 x 16 slot. I was just wondering if this is a card that is compatible? Thank you!

Accepted Answer

hello..i dont see why it wouldnt be compatible..its a small card..as in only 64 bit...not very demanding at all..no special reqirements..i like the card i use..hope i was helpful..good luck.

Question 4

Is the memory dedicated?
Thanks.

Accepted Answer

Yes I believe so. I doubt you can assign it to system or some such. If I am mistaken in my answer or I didn't read the question right, let me know and I will help if I can.

Question 5

How do I know if this graphics card fit my xps 420 desktop?

Accepted Answer

According to pcworld, it would fit, but the stock desktop has little over 3 gb of memory and this graphics card needs 4. Unless you already have upgraded your memory capacity, it won't work.

Question 6

the crossfire on this card is internal. according to all that i read it uses the pci bus to crossfire support does that work with any corssfire non cable card or any radeon card, or is it dual r7-240 or is it any R7 card?

Accepted Answer

Crossfire only works when you have the same card in both slots. If you wanted to crossfire you would need an additional r7-240a-elf4 Radeon. For the price its not difficult to make happen. I hope this helps.

Question 7

I'm not really good with computers, but I was wondering if I can plug this into my computer. It is a PCI Express x16. I'm not so sure what PCI Express 3.0 means can you please clarify? And my computer has 250 watt, can my computer run it? Thank you very much.
