[asterisk-users] asterisk compatible cards?

hello all,
for my home purpose, i found nothing in my budget in romania, very 
limited options, so i turned to ebay where i found two cards in the 25 
usd price range:

a voxzone x100p and a infomatrix x100p, their descriptions from ebay:


voxzone x100p:

infomatrix x100p (a2 and b2) :

anyone has any idea which one should i buy? i intend to use it in a SFF 
dell computer with one pci port (its pretty tight to the PSU wall but i 
hope it will fit.. any interference because of that?)

thanks!
