[mythtv-users] Low-Profile Video Card Source ???

[Chris Ribe]

Every Nvidia [5-7][2-3]00 I have ever seen has been low profile ready
(granted, these total about 5 cards).  The VGA at the "top" of the bracket
is always connected to the card by a ribbon, while the DVI and TV connectors
are soldered to the board.

(yes, I am top posting.  I have been expanding my email horizons lately, and
have discovered that the rest of the civilized world finds bottom posting
strange and confusing)
