Low Profile/Half Height Bracket HDMI + DVI for ATI Nvidia Video Graphics Card

My son has a computer that is considered 'Low Profile' (even though it is standing up, so I would have called it, 'slim.')I wanted to upgrade his Video card but soon realized that only a few cards are made specifically for low profile and they were all junk. But then, I found a drive that was decent and could be converted by relocating the VGA plug. I was going to just leave the VGA plug hang inside the case and saw off the extra metal, but that sounded like way to much work. I found these nifty little doo-dads on Amazon and they worked great!! A perfect compromise for our situation.

It is somewhat my own fault for not investigating this further, but I was not aware that the screw holes for a half height bracket are on the opposite side as a full height bracket. I need to use a half height bracket because of a riser in the slot, and I assumed that it would fit just fine, however I had to do a bit of fumbling around to secure this bracket and the blank bracket below is using the same screw hole.Makes no sense why they would have different specifications for different brackets, but the manufacturer isn't responsible for it. I did want to make sure that anyone else in my odd situation is aware of the issue though.

I give it a five star because they are direct replacements to MSI NVIDIA GeForce GT 610 half height video cards or any card that meets the standards. Why did I buy it? Cause the photos and description for the half height video card I mentioned above showed a full height bracket and never mentioned that half height brackets are included!!! That's how I was able to determine that these brackets are exact replacements. Nice, eh?

Used for an Asus AMD Radeon HD 6450 for my Dell SFF PC. The main bracket did not fit properly, so I ended up leaving the bracket clamp open.It's all good though.

These brackets are just what they say they are. They were the perfect solution for my small form factor computer that I needed to install a video card in. These low profile brackets did the trick without me having go out and spend 3 times as much. It took about 2 1/2 weeks to receive them but it was well worth wait to save a few dollars and I was not in any hurry to get them installed.

Came with rust on them

Pro: It worked with a Dell Optiplex 380DT and Nvidia GT610 video card. Easy to install and worked with HDMI cable.Con: It did not have a tab where it could screw onto the circuit board like the original one did. That must have been for a ground connection, but it didn't affect the card's performance. There was no screw hole for the HDMI socket to screw onto the bracket.Since I did not use the VGA connector, I just removed it from the circuit board although I could have left it hanging on the side.

It did the job, at least one did. The one had an extra hole, but matched the video cards connector.It had an extra hole and that was not the problem. The problem was that the graphics card was using its bracket as a ground, and that bracket had a small extra piece that would screw into the board as an extra ground. And this did not.But for many normal needs, this looks very good.
