I have install about 15 of these in the past 6 month . some I buy from here and some from Newegg . all of they have come with the low rise plate . one thing I do notice be that the last batch I get from Amazon have HDMI and not s-video on it . I use neither but it look like they have change the card and not the description . everything else about the card be the same . I have install these in xp pro , xp home , win7 pro , and win 7 Enterprise . we use these just to add a second monitor . the card have two output on it . VGA and DVI . there be no VGA to DVI adapter in the box so if you be use it for two VGA connection , get a adapter as well .  StarTech DVI to VGA Cable Adapter , M\/F -lrb- DVIVGAMF -rrb-  in other word , give this thing some space . leave one empty slot right below it .
