What Graphics card will work for my Dimension E310?
I just bought a dell dimension E310 ,the specs are Inrel pentium 4 Processor 521(2.80GHz) & 1mb cache, the video card is a Intergrated Intel GMA 900. I want to upgrade my video card but i do not know what type to buy as for as the slot is concerned,I opened it up and I dont know where would it go into. I had a dimension 4100 and the slot where the video card goes in is totaly different, I was going to put my old video card, a radeon 9200 into my dimensionE310 ,but I didn't even know where to put it . The slot in my old dimension 4100 is different from my new dimension E310. Can you please tell me what kind of video card will fit my dimension E310 and what brand would be preferable? I do play alot of online games and the sims 2, Im use to buying ATI Radeon graphics card, so will that work?

PCI slot video cards only for your system. FX5200 ( Low end ) FX5500, better, 5600 if you can find one, or the 5700 LE, and 6200 video card
Members have reported that ATI cards are somewhat problematic with a entry level computer, so I would not get the ATI cards, but a nVidia, mentioned above
