Do I have a free PCI express slot for a new video card?

I think that the white slot is the graphics card slots, theres another one plugged in already. Its a Radeon Xpress 200, integrated...|||the easiest way to tell your PCI slots form your PCI Express to look at the long and short sections of the slots, if the slot starts off with a long section near the back of the pc, then it is PCI, if it starts off with a short section then it is PCIE.. long section = approx 8cm, short = approx 2cm



However looking at the picture they both look like PCI slots to me as there white, PCIE are not normally that colour. the 3 i have are black, yellow and blue.



good luck mate!

|||the picture show 2 pci slots but the other side is covered up with the wire..the best thing you can do is go straight to the manufacturers website such as dell.com, hp.com and type in your computer model, locate the specifications of the computer motherboard and it should show you. PCIe slots are alot longer than a PCI
