Is this video card compatible with this computer?

So, here's the graphic's card: 128mb PCI Express x16 (DVI/VGA/TV-out) ATI Radeon X300 SE Hyper Memory. Also here is the desktop computer: HP Pavilion P6210F. Also, any advice about changing graphics card would be appreciated.|||All the newer cards say last 4 to 5 years are pci express x16. If you have the right slot on your mobo you can use it. You might want to get a better card unless you already have it. Now days good cards have 512mb to 1gb video memory. Just touch the case before you touch anything inside the pc after you power it off and unplug the power cord. Push the card firmly in all the way in the only slot it fits in. If it has a 4 or 6 pin power cord plug in plug the power into there. Turn it on when installed and download the cd to install the software for the card.|||I don't know, but you could ask some retail stores such as BestBuy to see if it is compatible.|||I see no reason why it wouldn't work.



Only advice I have is to make sure you ground yourself. Static discharge is bad.|||One more thing. If your mobo supports PCI exprexx 1.5V and your card is 2.0V, you may over load your mobo.
