    Low Profile GTS 250

    Just spotted that... proper low profile GTS250.

    Cunning huh?

    Apart from anything else.. I didn't know sparkle still existed

    My first ever PCI card was a sparkle WITH 2MB ON IT

    It made my PC rock

    Re: Low Profile GTS 250

    I likey the looky, but the extra power requirements are beyond my only low profile case (which currently has a Duron 700 and 512MB 133MHz SDRAM on an unknown SIS-based mobo in it!). If I get to one of the LANs this year I'll probably replace all that and go with a 5570 though - I think it's a better all round package, although not as powerful, obviously. My other option would be to stick my old 3GHz Celeron in one of those s478 boards with PCI-e, but I can't help thinking that a netburst Celeron D - even at 3GHz - is going to bottleneck my gaming experience somewhat

    Microdirect quite often seem to have Sparkle stuff in stock...
