Low profile bracket?

[Lawrencezn]

Hi, I recently bought and received this PCI card since my Dell studio slim desktop was running short on usb ports, and it had an open PCI slot: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815166014

Unfortunately, I failed to realize that I would need to buy a low profile card since I have slim case, and now i'm stuck with this card. I've heard that you can buy just the low profile bracket to replace the longer one, but I can't seem to find any that have the correct port openings. Anyone know where I can find a low profile bracket with either the correct usb openings, or just one big opening that would work for anything?

The card's PCB appears to be too tall even if you did find a low profile bracket... which you won't. Chalk it up to experience and buy what you need. You can sell the other one on ebay to help recoup your loss.

I see....I guess ill get a new card. But just so I don't make the same mistake again, would a low profile card fit in a slim case? Or is there some other factor i'm looking over?

Something like this? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815166001

If this is your PC, yes. That is exactly what you want. It will come with a lo-pro bracket you can swap out for the one in the pic.
