I have a small form factor PC, the HP S01-pF2013w. It serves me well as a streamer/entertainment computer. Two issues though, it had slow USB (see my review on the FebSmart 2-port USB3 card) and I accidentally yanked the HDMI cord and damaged the built-in HDMI port. Not wanting to write-off the computer, I decided to try the Maxsun Radeon RX550 video card to salvage the situation.As advertised, the card was an easy fit in the PCI 16 slot. HP does not give much room between the slot and the power supply, but the Maxsun said it'd fit with only a 19mm space, and sure enough it did. That leaves a few mm's to spare, which I hoped would be enough for the fan to keep the card cool. The added HDMI and DisplayPort are unobstructed by the case.Just for grins, I decided to see how the stock Intel UHD 630 performance stacked up against the Radeon RX550. Using PassMark's PerformaceTest suite v 11.0 2D and 3D graphics tests, the Radeon came out the clear winner. It was visually obvious as the tests ran, I've included a pic showing the two results side by side.Power consumption was a concern, as was temperature. It's a little computer with a small power supply. Using NZXT I was able to see the power consumption and temperature under idle, movie streaming, and hard-core 3D-rendering tests. At idle, the Radeon only uses 4W. While streaming, 6W at 126 F. 3D rendering pushed the card, it went to 24W at 172F. A little warmer than I like, but sustainable. My concern about limited airflow is gone.The only problem I had was the AMD software. Windows 11 immediately recognized the card and it worked fine, but I later downloaded the AMD Adrenalin software just to make sure the full ability of the card was available. Unfortunately, that made it unstable - sometimes the screen would black-out and require a reboot. After I uninstalled the Adenalin software and only loaded the AMD Radeon driver it settled down and there've been no problems since.Verdict: The card works. There was a very noticeable improvement in performance compared to the Intel UHD 630, and the card uses very little wattage and keeps its cool. The Radeon RX550 will not win any awards and is by no means a graphics monster, but it does elevate an underpowered stock system from abysmal to mid-level graphics performance. I've no regrets.

First time buying and installing a GPU. Bought it for my kid's small pc. fit in there just right. Comes with two different sized mounting plates. The Literature is mostly not english but I used a tutorial from Robeytech to remove the previous drivers before installing. Worked great and the software that comes with it is nice. you can tune the gpu to your liking. we set it up for power saving.

This card works for the most part. I did need it to be a bit more powerful for the frame rate that I was looking for, but the mistake is on me for not digging into the details. I ended up keeping the card for another project. It's decent and a good value.

At my workplace I needed this half-height graphics card for a PC running a graphics intensive application that was practically unusable using the on-board graphics on the PC. Installing this card resolved the performance issues. I was pleased enough with that purchase that I bought one for my home computer to resolve some lag issues when playing 4K video on my old PC. This card resolved that issue, too. I don't know how this product benchmarks against the completion. I didn't do any testing like that. I simply had performance issues with applications that needed a graphics card performance boost. The price was right on this graphics card and I found that it worked fine to resolve those issues.The only issue that I had was that the package came with no English instructions, no drivers and no software. I am an IT technician by trade, so I had little trouble finding the right drivers and software online. On one PC, Windows Update found the drivers, but I still had to download and install the correct version of the Radeon software. On the other PC I had to download both the drivers and software. So, this wasn't much of a problem for me, but it may be more than a novice PC users can deal with.This product did what I needed and I've had no problems with it either at home or at work. It gets a 5 star rating from me even though I would have expected better instructions for installing the product and obtaining the correct drivers & software.

I have an older Dell that I use for video editing. I only had the built in onboard graphics chip that was weak and used shared RAM. My videos took forever to render, and while working I had to drop the quality to 25% to stop the shudder and audio drifting out of synch.I can now edit at 100% and a 20 minutes video will process in less than 10 minutes, whereas it used to take 30 to 40.

I bought this video card to improve the video performance of our dell precision 3450 small firm factor computer. The video was previously lagging and sticking when streaming UHD video, and when I checked task manager I found that the built in video GPU was running at 100% capacity. Dell recommended an AMD 550 half height card for this machine, so I purchased this one. It was easy to install, and I just downloaded the drivers from AMD's web site, which was easy to do (there were none in the box). When I plugged the monitor into this card, the video quality was excellent, and task manager said that the video GPU was at about 50% capacity when streaming and displaying UHD video. Job done! I should also not that the video card in the box was fitted with a mounting bracket for a full height slot, but the included a half height bracket which was easy to swap out. This was a good purchase - highly recommended.

There is a small screw on the plate that holds the board to the system. This screw is impossible to remove. It is like its welded in. You need to remove the plate the board came with and replace with the provided by Mfg., to convert the board for use in Small Form Factor cases.So im not trying to create a mess, as the screws are pretty tight in general. This is great unless have SFF case. Problem this creates is excessive handling of delicate electronics.

This graphic card performs perfectly for me. I am not a gamer. I watch 4k high defenition movies in the best possible quality for an affordable price. Action scenes look very good, and colors are beautiful natural. The sounds is also great, with lots a details floating around and great stereo imaging.

This was purchased as an upgrade to the Intel UHD Graphics 630 onboard graphics system of a three year old Lenovo IdeaCentre desktop pc. The result is a significant improvement in speed and quality of graphics performance.Key note 1: there are no installation instructions and software included in the package. However the relevant software is available via the AMD site using its web installation program. Plus there are various YouTube videos available describing the Radeon 550 card inclusive of installation and games performance.Key note 2: the photos on the Amazon site for the GPU show an older design. The current card is boxed in on the fan side.Key note 3: no power cable in required to operate the card; ie it draws ts power via the PCI slot
