So would a MSI ATI Radeon HD 5450 1GB PCI-E HDMI VGA DVI Low Profile card work ok?
It might. You haven't provided any specs on your base unit, so we don't know what kind of cards it supports, if any at all, or whether you need low profile or standard profile. My prior response was based upon your eBay selection of an ancient ATI Rage GPU card in PCI form factor. What model is your base unit? Does it provide any expansion slots? If yes, what type(s)? PCI? PCIe? If PCIe, what type(s)? X16? X8? X4? X1? If it has a PCIe X16 or X8 slot for low profile, then a low profile HD 5450 with passive cooler could be OK with a DP-to-HDMI adapter. I have two of them, an XFX, and a Sapphire. My cards provide DVI and HDMI ports on the card, and came with dongles providing VGA output. Ideally, since your cables are DP and DVI, you'd want a card that provides matching ports. My low profile Dell HD 6450 PCIe card has DP and DVI outputs. Perhaps eBay now has some more of those, if PCIe is what you need. Here's a full height model.
