So my company got a bunch of new dells and I am in charge of finding video cards (low profile cards) so that certain people can have 2 screens.

First I got a asus nvidia 210 card and I don't think the designers ever tried it with the low profile bracket that they give with the card. The heatsink is so big that it pushes the vga connector up making extremely difficult to install and it is crooked after being installed. So then I picked up an asus 6450 the card doesn't work with dvi to vga adapters (tried 2 different asus 6450's, a few adapters and a few monitors). Next I picked up a msi nvidia 210. The card is perfect, heatsink isn't ginormous so you can actually install it easily, it works dvi-vga adapters. I was especially impressed by the protectors they put on the card. There was a protector over each of the ports and over the pci-e connector. I thought this was pretty nice considering this is their cheapest card.
 
Yeah, they had those protectors with the GTX 570 I just got. Not really necessary but a nice touch.
