Hi guys

Will a low profile graphics card work on IL-2 Cliffs of Dover? because I've got an Aspire X3300. If it does which low profile graphics card shall I get?

If you can tell me I would be greatful.

Thanks

A very shaky maybe, with everything that you can't turn off on (very) low, and anything you can turn off, off.

I'm on a laptop, which is performance-wise much worse than a desktop with comparable specs. It has an i5, and an nVidia 330M. I can play it barely, if you can handle an average of 15-20 fps over sea, 10-15 over land and 10- when attacking someone.

I've been having a blast, even with these settings though, even online

I have the acer aspire x3300 and would be about the only one i know on here that bought it and customized it with in 1 week .. Due to your power supply only being 220watts total power you can't find a low profile video card with the power you need to run it ..The x3300 was made to be a "home theater" computer not a gaming computer ...However you can Take off the side panel cut some of the back off the rear of the computer and add in a nvida 9800 gt ..i did it awhile back ..since then i scraped the case and put the "guts" into a $30 mid side case , Added 2 120mm fans a 750watt PSU and a 5770 video card

So in short x3300 with a low profile ..yes but for what your going to get out of it if anything..wouldn't be worth it

Buying a case and a useable power supply to upgrade ..best idea

BTW your power supply is made to fit that case ..no other power supply will fit inside

In Short NO and if you was able too it would look very rubbish.

Just my 2 cents
