Video card compatibility...help please?

Can I use any PCI-e x16 video card with any computer as long as the motherboard has at least one available PCI-e x16 slot? Is the availability of a PCI-e x16 slot the only factor in determining whether or not a video card will work (I know the power supply matters as well)? I am thinking about getting the "HP Pavilion a6554f" and I would like to know if I can upgrade with any PCI-e x16 video card (it comes with the intel GMA3100) as long as I buy another power supply as well?|||I think you'll be fine. In fact you're power supply may is prob fine also. You just need to check if it has a free connection that is compatible. I'll bet it does.



To confirm this I'd give HP a call and make sure.
