aford is right but it might make a nifty little mainstream gamer.

Please check the label on the power supply and confirm it is 400w and report how much it shows - how many amps - for 12v. Also what other componenets are on the system?

As long as you don't have much, I think you can run this 4670 card - on sale for only $38 right now - a price that makes it worth checking I think.

Also, that mobo is supposed to have 4 memory slots. Are any open? If you could add another 1 GB of memory it might help some. What operating system do you have?

The chart linked below shows what to expect, although keep in mind it was prepared using a fast computer so as not to slow the video card and I don't know if you CPU will bottleneck it, but if it does it should not be too much.
