Can my system run this graphics card?

[Rollie2010]

Hi, I currently have an 8500GT 256mb graphics card, it runs WoW and CS:S alright, but im looking for a little better performance. I found this card and was wondering if my computer has enough power supply and has all the right other hook ups.

Here is the card's specs;
GPU/VPU: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS
RAMDAC: Dual 400 MHz
Additional Features: RoHS Compliant
HDCP Enabled
HDTV Ready
SLI Ready
OpenGL 2.0
DirectX 10
PCI Express 2.0
Vista Certified
Maximum Resolution: 2560 x 1600 (Digital)
Video Memory: 384MB
Memory Type: DDR3
Core Clock: 580 MHz
Memory Interface: 192-bit
Memory Clock: 1400 MHz
Stream Processors: 96
Interface Type: PCI Express 2.0
Interface Speed: x16
Connector(s): Dual DVI (Dual Link)
HDTV/S-Video
Multiple Monitors Support: Yes

It also has heat sink and a fan.

I'm getting the card from a friend, so if I can run it let me know.


How do I post up my system specs so you guys can tell me if I can run it?


Thanks for all the help, I really appreciate it!

Please put your System Specs information in your Profile

If your computer is a brand label (like Dell; HP; ...) then type in the Brand and model number in the mobo field of your Profile

Okay, will do.

I know I have a PCI Express, but it says it needs PCI Express 2.0? So im confused on that.
and 3 gigs of RAM.

Im running an 8500 GT now, so i should be able to run this?

Oh sorry

Once you get to your home site (which will show you all pics and specifications and absolutely everything about your computer)

Just download your Manual and check
