Good day,

I just acquired a hand-me-down HP EliteDesk 800 G1 TWR from work. I am wanting to attach multiple monitors to it (two older DVI monitors and one 720p Sharp TV via HDMI). All of the PCI slots in this PC are available, though one may end up getting filled with a WiFi adapter. I am not wanting this for heavy gaming. Mostly I want to use it at my DM Station for Dungeons and Dragons, running several instances of OneNote online, along with tabletopaudio.com, Excel, Google Keep, and Notepad. Basically I don't plan on taxing the GPU above displaying web pages and worksheets most of the time.

My limited knowledge and experience have led me to this card:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AZ8EQB...olid=3G5VELHSSI32N&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

Would that be a good buy? If not, what would you recommend instead?

Bonus points if any recommendation is available from Amazon, as I have a gift card to spend there.
 
Solution
If you have the tower version of the computer then yes that card would work. Don't expect to play games on that card unless they are older ones.
