Can anyone help me out I'm trying to play diablo 3 on my pc and need a new video card for my emachine el1352-07e . It's a pretty slim pc do Im in dire need of help .thank you
 


ya sometimes it freezes at the windows screen others its after the windows screen it went to the desktop once then froze. thats with it running the ati 5570 video card and a 220watt psu the original power supply
 



so what can I do, do you need more specs of the pc or something, all I have extra is 2 big power supplys that are 200 watts and 210 watts. with it freezing cuz theres not enough power thru the system is that normal? thanks I really wanna buy a sure thing tonight I need the power supply asap. thanks
 

oh ok i already bought the ati radeon 4350 but it does not include the low profile bracket. i looked all over the internet for that bracket. can you provide a link for the low profile bracket of the 4350. the card also has a vga which i will be using sd video and a div port.
 

One simple question who shipped the item to you like FedEx or who. And did they put it in your mailbox or did they leave it at your door.

I have been where you are right now ..
I bought an Emachine EL1352 and then got bitten my the gaming bug.
Long story short , I went and bought an NVIDIA lowprofile 440 card thinking I'd be o.k.

I am pretty sure your internals , like the other slimline models , are configured the same as mine from the looks of it.

Do this ; open up your case and look at the PCIe slot for your card.
Is it way at the top of the case?

If so , then bear in mind , it is upside down essentially. The fan/heatsink will not fit.

I solved this buy moving everything into an old case I had laying around. It took quite a bit of creativity due to the very short wires attached to the power supply.

I Also had the 220 WATT psu. I ran the GT440 on it anyway , and ran Skyrim , Crysis2 , and EVE online at max settings.

Later on , I got a deal I couldn't refuse on a 550T TI. I took it home and it fit , although I did have to negotiate with one of my USB ports ( no biggee ) and upgrade my power. The 555 TI needs it's own power cord from the psu , and the 220 we have simply won't work even if it could magically spew out extra wattage.

So if you upgrade your psu , please do yourself a favor and get a modular. That way you can have whatever plug in type you want , when you want it. 600 Watt should suit you fine in my humble opinion.

If you are like me on this , you'll deal with it as best as you can , but never buy a slimline model ever again.

I hope that helps you solve your issue and maybe avoid some of my headaches.

well , back to dinking around on Saints row 3 o/
