Sparkle 9800GT, 600:1800, core:mem speeds. Low Profile with native HDMI.

Rosewill 500watt PSU.

Combo saves you $25.00 but if you're looking for a low profile card for an HTPC, you can't get much more power than this.

Low profile but it looks like its a dual slot cooler.

Anyways good deal.

Bump

Not a good deal due to the shit PSU:

Z*!#$

the psu doesn't look bad.

 

[HSADJADI]

tiny fans are usually too loud for good movie watching. I remember the ATI x1650 hdmi low profiles, they were destined for greatness, if the tiny fan wasn't so damn loud. any experiences with this card yet? I want it to be good, looks fun

 

[lollerskater69]

Honestly though, I see no point in a low profile 9800gt. It's a gaming card.

It's a gaming card that can fit in a low profile case .

Read the review and you can see that some Rosewill PSUs are crap.

Some are bad, but some are good. Depends on the specific model.

Up for the low-profile m0star

sell the PSU in a low-end build

some of course, but Ive had a couple 550s, similar model I believe and they were decent, one's still powering a Q6600 box for a friend of mine

I am actually going to buy this card in a few weeks for my Dell Optiplex GX620. Hopefully won't have to purchase a PS also.

sweet 18Amps!!!! i cant wait to kill that rail with 6 HDDs....

 

[Asgard_Thor]

well, if I had that even in a low profile case, and you had alittle more room below it, just take those fans off, and put a 120mm under it, if not that, then , put some 80mm on that

so how does it compare to a normal 9800gt?
i like!

I think compusa has those "helper" psu's that fit in a 5 1/4 bay for 40bux.
Might be a nice option for someone running this card in one of those real small cases
with a nonstandard powersupply.

 

[ChristmasGT]

I've use the rosewill 550 in a few peoples builds haven't had any issues so far

 

[Warrior]

power handling is the most important thing to me in my PC.... This deal is ment for the cheap Build sellers that will likely mark up a computer like this claiming good stable parts...

 

[PyroHoltz]

I'll post a review of the 9800gt once I get the card up and running. Hardware arrived today and it's a good looking card. As for the PSU, we'll see how it shapes up. I'm kinda pissed at myself for not reading the [H] review on mainstream PSU's.

 

[Warrior]

all i got to say is this isnt much of a warm deal, nor is it worthy of a "Thumbs up" for the thread, lol good luck with the PSU...

not to thread crap, but this just doesn't seem much of a deal when the product is horrible to begin with...
