Computer Video Card Compatibility?

I'm looking forward to buy this : http://www.cel.ro/placi-video/placa-video-asus-geforce-gtx430-1gb-ddr3-128bit-pcie-l/poze



Here is my PC Information. I want to know if it's compilable



Info from My Computer.

Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU

E7400 @ 2.80GHz

2.78 GHz, 3.43 GB of Ram



Info from DxDiag Display Menu

NVIDIA GEFORE 210

Manufacter : NVIDIA

Chip Type : 210

Integrated RAMDAC

Aprox total memory : 1024.0 MB

Monitor : Plug and Play|||Took me a while to figure out what the card is at that Romanian web site. There is no GTX430.

It is a GT 430. This is the card.

First pass guess is compatible. As it pulls more power, need your power supply specs, and you should usually give your brand and model of computer when you ask if not a local or home-built



Power + heat dissipation are probably the question, and I was about to look up graphics performance difference expected

Manufacturer's web site



Computer needs to be PCI Express 2.0

The card is windows 7 compatible. correction. looks like ONLY for windows 7

not tested on other operating systems

Did check that Geforce 210 is PCIe 2.0

Did see your link card is 3x performance of the one in your system

Card also should be in a system with 300Watt power supply. I don't know your power.



Found a web site saying graphics chip is WIN XP and Vista compatible, but not sure how much game performance improvement with the CPU you have.



What is your operating system on your PC? Hard to guess it

Do you have PC model number and brand?



Could try to guess upgrade but can use more info from you



Everything says card is compatible if you have sufficient power in your system with the power supply, but game performance may be limited by the CPU. Should still be a big improvement.

If a gaming expert sees this, maybe he can update. I know computer hardware and specifications, but not familiar with game performance.
