About buying a new Gfx card !

[ValentineChrisis]

Well my Gfx card is bad, and now i kept enough money to buy the one i wanted so long. The only thing i want to know before is, how do i know the card will actually fit with my computer ? Atm i have a G-force 7300 LE, 128 mo i think. And i want to buy this one : http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pro...gon=&langid=EN

Is there a way i could easily know if the card fit my computer, because im not really a pro in that =/
Thx

ATI or Nvidia will have visual info on the box of what type of graphics slot that the graphics card is for. Telling us the model to the card really wont tell us about the slot since they make one model for one or more slots.

You will have either PCI, AGP, or PCIe.

You also have to consider power supply........again, that info is on the graphics card box.

So do i have to open my computer to see the number of slots i have ?
And for PCI, AGP, or PCIe, is there a way to know wich one i support?
