Welcome to TechIMO!

We will need three very important things here which are missing from your specs.

What motherboard are you using?

What power supply are you using?

What Case size do you have?

If this is a prebuilt system (dell, hp, etc.), what was the exact model number as the above 3 can be answered that way.

Would be beneficial to post the wattage of the PSU and 12 volt amp ratting.

could also specify the exact Intel CPU, simply saying Dual Core doesn't mean much...

Pentium D, Core 2 Duo, Pentium Dual Core, Celeron Dual Core, Atom Dual Core, Core Duo, Core i3, Pentium "G" Series for Socket 1156 and 1155 (stripped down Core i3's)...

2.13GHz, not sure if more than one Intel CPU had that clock speed, but I know the Core 2 Duo E6400 was 2.13GHz, as I used to have one, but beyond that, no way to know which CPU you have for sure.

If it is the E6400, the GPU if it meets the other requirements will work with it, but the CPU will heavily choke the video card, and prevent it from running at its max potential.

Could also mention what your coming up from for the upgrade, whats your current graphics chip?
