    just curious if normal size graphics cards would work in my low profile pc.

    basically i got a low profile system but have a good normal size graphics card i want to use and have modified my case to fit around the normal size card.


    will the normal size card work or is the slot or what ever just designed for low profile cards.

    is usually the bracket on the card on the card is full height tho also depends on the height of the circuit board. take the card bracket off the card & sit the card into the slot to see if the actual card will fit properly or not. if fits than modify the bracket which i had to do to a customer's new dialup modem.
