you are only going to get 1x speed since you only have a PCI-E x1 slot. You are going to be WAY overspending for the card you will get. Why pay $90 for an outdated video card when you can upgrade your Motherboard and GPU for a little more $.

Best option is the 5450 PCI-E x1 version but any PCI-E x 1 will work on your current setup.

Have you ever installed a PCI card before? That card will work. As long as it has those small tabs and not the wide one it will work.

good luck on that one. That card gets hot, add a fan if you can! Most likely you will need a DVI to VGA adapter as well, I believe there is no onboard VGA output if I remember correctly.
