To put it simply i have this computer: http://tinyurl.com/8faoc and i want to know if it will work with this graphics card: http://tinyurl.com/cetnm
Any help would be appreciated.
btw those links lead to the specs of the same computer as the one i have on tigerdirect.com, and to the graphics card i wish to buy on newegg.com respectively.

If those computer specs are correct it does not have an AGP slot. The card you linked to is an AGP card and will not work. You would have to find a PCI video card. What are you trying to gain by adding a new video card? The other specs on that computer, especially the memory, are pretty low.

The card would not work. The card is Agp and the computer does not have neither AGP or Pci-express. normal pci card choices are very few and are not good. Perhaps you should try to change your whole computer.

The machine you have has an Intel Extreme Graphics 3D Integrated Graphics chip, and these cheaper motherboards are not equipped with an AGP slot. However, you have 2 available PCI Slots, and Tigerdirect has a number of good PCI video cards to choose from.
