Will this card work with a pc I'm buying?

[lotusmaster]

My slim line computer recently broke so I'm forced to get something cheap and quick to replace it. I will link my card and the computer i'm trying to buy. I'm wondering if they will work well together.

it should if the pc has a pci video slot on the mb. i would for the money look at the newer r line or the 700 line of gpu.

Hello... It doesn't really say if you have PCIe x16 slot in it... http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=AMD+A8-3820+APU
The APU does have HD graphics on it... The MB should have a connector on it.
The Card sucks and the APU GPU is of the SAME performance is the GOOD news... So you Don't need to rush into getting a Video card for it... AND can save up for a better Video card.

Its easy to find full specs as newegg went with the old surefire 'reverse the product code' when it was rebranded.

Its a hp pavilion p7-1251

It has a PCI x16 express slot ,itll run that card fine - as stated though the onboard apu graphics are as good if not better.

Thank you! Any suggestions on possible upgrades in the future? For example if I wanted to play games like Gta 5 or something on it on high and cost? I really wanted to build this up for metal gear when it comes out

You have to bear in mind how much you're paying & the old tech in that llano system.
That low clocked (& locked) apu is going to struggle a little with new titles mate - it'll play them but honestly don't expect much more than 30fps irregardless of what GPU you pair up (IMO anything more than a 260x or 750ti would be a waste of money).

Its certainly cheap & cheerful though & definitely worth the price.

$5 more ,newer chipset ,faster apu ,a lot more grunt & a much much better buy IMO.

Can't fault this one for the money mate at all - still a fairly current processor ($90 separately) - you're getting a lot of bang for buck - standard matx board with standard power layout so PSU is upgradeable.

Upgradeable to unlocked trinity chips (although you could probably pair a 960 with the included 5500 with decent results with a new PSU)
Its the one to go for.
