  • This little card has some good bang for the buck, tricky with the drivers but was surprised on how well the 1080p performance worked for it.

    Thanks for the great video. I'm looking to get one of these because surprisingly this cheap card should support 4 displays. Just want to know how do you think about the noise level? Does the fan keep running even with light tasks or on desktop? Thanks!

    • @DLMtechgarage
      @DLMtechgarage  Před 2 lety

      yea the fan runs loud at first but when you install the drivers it quiets down, the noise level is barely noticeable, but a bit audible while gaming. advice for getting this card is make sure you use DDU to uninstall the driver. without it, it does not like to install the driver.

    hello I know this question isn't about this video but I need help
    so I'm thinking about buying a dell Optiplex 990 small form factor but I have some questions
    will it fit into a atx case or what will it fit into as in what size is it you know like its atx micro atx which one is it?
    secondly, they have that big cooler on it can I just put a standard intel CPU cooler on it?
    I know ill have to get an adapter for the front panel
    connectors, but ill also be using a atx power supply will I also have to use a power supply adapter for the 24 pin connector
    thank you for any help ALSO

      so those pc's will fit in any matx or atx you would. you are limitless with your options. for the psu if you have the 8pin on the board then you will need the 24 pin adaptor. I did a video dedicated to these question along with a how to guide on it. will post the link below. don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have!!
