This video card is Dell GCJ42 AMD Radeon HD 5770 1GB. it is old and may not be recognized by your computer bios. you should disable secure boot and UEFI in XPS 8300 bios before you install this card. set your bios to boot in legacy mode only. if you are successful, then install this video card and hopefully it will be supported.
Does anyone know how I can tell what video cards would work with this thing? Don't mind spending a little more but did not want to buy something that wont work with a mobo this old.

the standard i7 for 8300 is i7-2600.
Graphic card and processor will work great together
Intel Core i7-2600 (Clock speed at 100%) with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 (Clock speed at 100%) x1 will produce only 0.19% of bottleneck.
GTX 1070 Suggested PSU350 W
