the card you suggest is AGP.

does your motherboard support AGP?

it'll either support PCI only (crappy), AGP (outdated), or if you're lucky, PCI Express (aka PCIe, PCIx, PCIx16).

step 1 is find out what slot you have on your motherboard. also find out the wattage and amperage of your Power Supply Unit (PSU).
