I just bought a Dell XPS 200 series Desktop.. and need a video card good enough to handle Battlefield 2.. Easy huh.. Well I did a little research and I can't find a card to fit. The video card slot is a //half-height PCIe x16 (graphics) slot\\.

If someone knows where I can find a video card that will fit this computer and still play Battlefield 2 with all the settings turned up .. it would be much appreiciated thanks!!

Check out this low profile card for your Dell but beware, I hear it gets hot easily in those slim Dell cases.

I talked with Dell just a couple of days ago and they told me the ATI Radeon X600 part# J9133 would fit in the XPS 200. I was looking for a video card also. Dell also said that the price was $65.95. I am going to give it a shot.
