System Requirements

Any reasonably functional machine from the last 10 years will be able to power the Devil HDX. Most notably, you’ll need a PCI 1x slot and a molex connector. In fact, you might have to go out of your way to find a molex connector on your PSU these days. I spent an afternoon digging through boxes to find the modular cable with the molex power connectors. Just be warned.

Photography

After all the exposed shots, let’s take a look at the Devil HDX in its whole form, er, from packaging to card, with more photos than you can shake a stick at!

The Devil HDX, as you would expect from a high-end device, has red accent LED lighting. Depending on your case lighting, red LED may cause conflict.

But not for my case. I’m not an interior designer, so I haven’t paid much attention to lighting. The Devil HDX is surprisingly non-offensive. It’s the devil, why not go with something very out there, like fuchsia, or purple, or yellow?
