Hi I have a Dell Dimension 3000, pent 4, 3.2 Ghz, with 512mb of ram and have been looking around for a new video card to play games like cod 2 and bf2(my 2 fav pc series) when i found the Xfx Geforce 7300GS 256mb Pcie and ordered it.
Being excited from ordering the card I did some snooping in reviews and stuff. I noticed the word Pcie in some of the posts and didn't think much of it until one of them said it wouldn't fit a pci slot(heh i didn't know that ). I was stunned so i quickly looked for something to fix the problem and found that something called a half height bracket would let me put it in the Pci slot.
What i need to know is if i need to buy the bracket and if i do where and for what price.
I don't want to find a different card because this one looks like a good budget card so anything i can do without ordering a different to make this work would help me out alot.
