Overall, it’s a very simple process that can be done in just a few minutes (but prepare to deal with the smallest screws you’ve ever seen in your life!) Performing this surgery involves removing four screws to lift the shroud, and another three to remove the bracket. Since it’s a bit of an issue trying to install a low-profile card in a regular-sized machine, AMD will be including a replacement bracket in the box in case a conversion ever needs to be made. This, coupled with the fact that it doesn’t require a power connector, makes it an extremely accessible product. ![]() ![]() One of the standout features of the W4300 is that it’s a low-profile card, catering to a fast-growing market of small form-factor workstation PCs. I was told that there is no real significance to this, at least from an architectural standpoint, but it seems likely that the next fleet of workstation cards in AMD’s lineup will follow suit. I think it’s also worth highlighting the fact that this card has a “3” in its model name, rather than a “1” like every other current-gen FirePro WS card.
