Default Half size PCI graphics card

I need a half-size pci graphic card. i know that there are some fx5200 pci
graphics cards from nvidia out there, but the card should have a half-height
bracket at the back. any
ideas or suggestion where i could get eighter a full half-szie card or just
the half size bracket..
thanks

Use a dremel tool and trip the bracket. Then bend it and drill a new hole
for the bracket. That should do it for you. Newegg.com has a few
half-height cards but none with half-height brackets.

Gainward (ugh) I think makes half-height cards... the 5200s are very
small...

you can do a search on www.pricewatch.com

At http://www.newegg.com you will find pics of a few half-height cards
by typing fx5200 into the search box at the top. Some of the
manufacturers are EVGA, Prolink, Aopen and Asus. There are pictures of
the cards. At the back of the EVGA card are holes which might accept a
bracket. Newegg is a supplier in the USA, but it will give you some ideas.

Out of curiosity, what is the purpose of this bracket in the back?
