Video Card upgrade?
Just wondering if I can upgrade my Dell Dimension 5100 with Pent 4 processor from an 128 Mb ATI X300 Hypermemory (card from the factory) to a BFG Geforce 210 512 Mb PCI-express x16 card that requires 2.0 PCI Express with the current processor and factory shipped motherboard and power supply with the 5100
EDIT: I just opened my chasis and my model number for my Dell PSU is N305N-00 Max Wattage 305.

Why not get something more powerful, like a Radeon 4670?

The 210 would give you a significant improvement over your current setup. A single slot GT240 is a powerful, reasonably low power requirement upgrade even from the 210. It is about twice the price of a 210 for about six times the performance.
