Sub £30.

You'll struggle to get a new enough card to have an hdmi good enough for gaming even second hand. Your probably looking between £50-100 tbh


Yes it is a problem - it's an older PC of course.. I can go DVI with a lead to HDMI which is on the back of the TV. I have uprated the PSU in readiness. Trouble is the Dell Optiplex 755 won't take a double height card but really all I want is something better than the AMD Radeon 5450.

I've actually got a single height 9800 and I think I paid £30 for it a couple years back, it's not a bad card but well over due an upgrade but nvidia still support it driver wise and I do most of my gaming on the xbox so I've no real justification for upgrading.

Ahhh when you put single layer you meant low profile?

I have a 9800GTX in one of my old pc's and it's quite a large card!

If you mean low profile as in half width you won't get one sorry. The only make multimedia cards in half width no good for gaming.
