Q: Power

A: The card has a max TDP (Thermal Design Power) of 25 Watts. Almost any major brand computer with an 8x PCI-E slot will run this card without issue as they are built with more than 25W of extra capacity. I've run this card on an HP Slimline with a 160W power supply without issue. If you want to get a bit more technical, you need to know the total power draw at 100% load of all the other components in your system (CPU, RAM, hard drive(s), fans, etc), as well as the 12V power rating of your power supply and its efficiency rating. For example: a 400W power supply with a 80+ Bronze certification and a +12V rail with a 30A current rating has a max output of 12V * 30A = 350 W * 0.80 = 280W. So the power supply puts out 280W max. A high end Core i7 is typically rated for 95W or less, and other components such as RAM and drives total less than 50W, so you'd have 135W left over. This is oversimplified since power supply efficiency varies with load, and the component power numbers are just estimates, but it gives an idea of how to calculate it.

Q: Does this video card support audio via hdmi?

A: Yes it does. I have it setup as a HTPC and it ports audio thru HDMI.

Q: Is this graphics card low profile? I need it to fit into an old Emachine ET1810-03. Thank you.

A: yes it has brackets for full or low profile. You should be good to go

Q: Will this card support 3 monitors?

A: You have three outputs on this card. VGA, DVI and HDMI. Set the old one up with VGA, then set up the newer monitors one with DVI, the other with HDMI. That is what I did.

Q: I have a windows 10 Pc/laptop and not a computer guy but Iʻm trying to get better FPS on games so would this work for my computer? Windows 10 laptop Pc two in one tablet.

A: No you can not used this in a mobile device. It is a windows desktop video card. There are external enclosuers for video cards to work with laptops, but they have vary vary limited compatibility. Besides that, a 730 is not a gaming card. Its better for office use, and multiple monitors. Sure it might would help a vary small amount if it were possible.

Q: Is this a 64bit or 32bit?

A: Memory Bit Width: 64 Bit
