Hey

If the model above is right, you have onboard video--it's integrated with chipset. You do have 3 Pci slots so if you have one free you could go with a standard Pci video card. Is the card for general use or games?

Here is a link...

Hope this helps.

your stuck with pci video but you can get 64meg with tv out for $69Can(powercolor ati radeon 7000). i don't think you can use the pci-e video cards just pci
