I think the answer is no.

If I remember right the 805n has intergrated video. Normaly could be disabled to put in a replacement card. But the 805n has no agp slot which is what the card you are wanting to put in it is. Again this is from memory of an 805n I worked on a while back and I could be remembering wrong.

ah okay i should get a new vc because Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 900 is really bad for gaming =/ i think a nvidia 128 pci will be good

im not the most seasoned veteran on video card buying suggested, but if you are looking for a gaming card, i dont think a 128 mb card will do you much good. most games i see require at least a 256 card. so thats the minimum card i would get.
