Would a Sapphire AMD Radeon HD 7770 fit my PC?

[stanleythedog]

I don't understand much about the technical details of my PC, but here's what I got from the Device Manager on the control panel:

ACPI x86 based PC,
Display adapter: Intel(R) G41 Express Chipset
DVD/CD-ROM drives: Magic ISO Virtual DVD-ROM0000, TSSTcorp CD/DVDW SH-S182D ATA device.
Monitor: Generic PnP monitor
Processors: 2 Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU E5700 @ 3.00GHz
Storage controllers: MagicISO SCSI Host Controller

From what I understand the parts I listed are the ones that matter when it comes to whether a certain graphics card would fit my PC. As of now I'm using the on-board graphics card which works for video games about as much as dog turds would work as a healthy dinner.

So will the Sapphire AMD Radeon HD 7770 fit my PC? It's the best card that I could find in my budget.

[strike][/strike]It will fit, because the motherboard has a PCI-E x16 slot. But most important question is, what's your PSU? Because, if there's not enough wattage and amps, it could burn your motherboard and lots of stuff in it.

Here's a picture of the power supply: http://i1368.photobucket.com/albums/ag183/stanleythedog/IMG_12401_zpsb16541f2.jpg

That's a bad PSU, you need to upgrade your power supply first, this one is great for the money: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139049&clickid=1voxk42ccyJHVhFRS3yF6w5xUkTWJv1RBWhZQE0&iradid=97618&ircid=2106&irpid=79301&nm_mc=AFC-IR&cm_mmc=AFC-IR-_-na-_-na-_-na

Will it require anything else? Or can I just get the PSU and graphics card and be set?

No, unless your have less than 2GB's of RAM.
