I'll be honest, i'm a complete noob when it comes to computers and such ,but i would really appreciate it if someone would help me upgrade my old PC. I'm on a very small budget and all i really want to do is upgrade the graphics card.I looked around and found two i like, the problem is that i don't know if they would even fit into my motherboard, or whether or not it would even work.
