Not trying to be rude, but couldn't you choose a better picture? How in the heck can we see the slot with the card plugged in?

take ur vid card out so we can see everything. if the slot is a brownish color, it is AGP. a detailed picture of the slots (below the fan on the left) would be best, with no cards blocking the view.

Yes you do. I can tell because PCI Express 16x slots are black and longer then AGP slots are. Besides that you have a bigger separation between the standard PCI slots then that of an AGP slot which means that under the graphics card you have 2 PCI 1x slots.

Nice Rig....looks like a fairly new Dell....the short and Stumpy ones. You definately have a PCIExpress 16x Slot in there. You might have a PCIExpress 1x slot, but it is hard to tell....you definately dont have two of them. a 1x slot is really short. should be black located just below the big vid card slot. I'd say ur running a P4 3.0GHz+? I wish mine was that snazzy....I need to get a bit more money before I can go all out. College blows like that.

Well if you don't have 2 of them then it must be a cheaper pci express motherboard then, because the standard is 2.
