How can I test and see which graphics cards are compatible with my computer?

If you know what open slots you have you've won 1/2 the battle... the type of graphics card you buy is dictated by what slot you have open. AGP, PCI, PCI Express, etc. They all look different.. if you search google images you'll find pictures of each to compare what you see open on your mother board.





You also need to know if you have an open power supply cable (some high end PCI Express cards need power connections).

How can I test and see which graphics cards are compatible with my computer?
Compare specs.





Confirm your card type (PCI, PCI Express, or AGP) and make sure your power supply can handle it and it can fit in your case. Once you know that stuff it's a piece of cake.
