One question

I've seen people with other cards in it, but a lot of them had ik replaced by dell.
 
If i just buy an ASUS X800GTO for example, do I need Dell to install it?
 
I have a Dell 8400
 
3.2 GHz
1024 RAM
X300SE
350 Watt Power Supply
 
Any help is welcome.

nope, you dont have to have dell install them. just do it yourself, like i did. also i have the same system as you but i upgraded to a geforce 7800GT; the 7800GT is about 50% better than the X800 series, so you may want to consider it. i got mine for $299
