    Is this card compatible?

     
    I am about to buy a new video card for my Dell pc and I want to make sure I get one that fits my computer. Here are two choices I have narrowed it down to:

    Sapphire - Radeon HD 5450 1GB DDR3 PCI Express Graphics Card

    Galaxy - NVIDIA GeForce 210 512MB DDR2 PCI Express Graphics Card

    I have a Dell XPS 410. Its about 5-6 years old and my old video card shot out. I am using a replacement Geforce 7600 GT that is on its last leg.

    Would either of the two choices work above. All I need is for my wife to use word and stream videos for school until we buy a new PC in about 6months. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    You need to find out what the minimum power supply requirements are for the cards and then compare that to the wattage of your supply.
