Dell E520
I have a Dell E520 and I'm going to install a Q6600 Processor
Will this graphics card XFX NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GTS PVT84GUDF3 256MB GDDR3 work in it?
I have a G965 chip set in it now
I'm not going to play games, but I do have a flight simulator
Thanks for any help!
If you have any suggestions, Please let me know!

I put the Q6600 Processor in it. I paid $12.00 for the Processor on ebay.
Windows rating went from 4.6 to 7.1
The E520 runs great
Thanks for the help!

Yes, the XFX NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GTS PVT84GUDF3 256MB GDDR3 video card should work fine.
Regards to the Q6600 processor, prior to installing it, check that you have BIOS version 2.2.1 [or higher], installed, when additional CPU support was added.
