i was nervous buying this for my slim PC but after researching i went with this graphics card.
it seems to work great, i can play some games that wouldn't run on my slim PC before - but i am not a major pc gamer. i mainly bought this card to help with some graphic work that i do on the machine.

I wanted a video card to help my i-5 650 microprocessors to have less work as my motherboard doesn't have a built in card. I sure made me happy as my photo shop and photos load so much faster.
