Video card compatibility question?

I have a Vostro 220 Dell computer running Windows 7 64-bit and considering upgrading my graphics card. I found this deal online:

but I am not sure if it is compatible. Here are some links:

Power supply: http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/sy…

PCI and PCI-E info:http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/sy…

System board and general info: http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/sy…



Are they compatible? Thanks so much!|||You should actually spend more time actually reading the links instead of just posting them|||Your card is a PCIe card and your motherboard has a PCIs slot therefore it should work as far as installation goes. The only issue is that I was not able to find the specification for your power supply. It is a good idea to know that and compare it against your graphic card recommendations. If you open your computer case it is usually written on the side of the PSU what the wattage and other features are.

By the way it is a great card, alot of good reviews about it, but a little older and can not run newer games as it can not run DirectX11.

I hope this helps.
