530sCheapMac Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I am looking for a new graphics card for my PC. I need a larger resolution and VLC media Player is not displaying any video. However, It must be a low-profile aka Half Height card. Hopefully there will be relatively simple setup to get it working with 10.5.5/6. Any ideas?

If you want to spend ~$100, I would suggest the Jaton 1GB 9500 GT. It can be found on newegg. It will work well with my nVidia 9500 GT Driver installer.

530sCheapMac Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 will this work with any 9500 GT cards? specifically this one? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814150319 Just because I want DVI Out without an adapter, and it has a fan, rather than passive cooling Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/149670-low-profile-half-height-and-os-x/#findComment-1058896 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should work just fine. I just noticed a bug in my installer though, so I'll have to get that ironed out.
